Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) ]]> 2021-03-08 21:20:11 UTC https://padlet.com/andriamartinez1/1e0p94al4sgd70jq/wish/1284554154 The neurotransmitters for each division. andriamartinez1 https://padlet.com/andriamartinez1/1e0p94al4sgd70jq/wish/1284555274 Each division uses different neurotransmitters to perform their actions. For the sympathetic nervous system; norepinephrine and epinephrine are the neurotransmitters of choice. The parasympathetic division uses acetylcholine to perform its functions.]]> 2021-03-08 21:20:31 UTC https://padlet.com/andriamartinez1/1e0p94al4sgd70jq/wish/1284555274 The locations where each NT is released in each division of the ANS. andriamartinez1 https://padlet.com/andriamartinez1/1e0p94al4sgd70jq/wish/1284556491 The two divisions of the autonomic nervous system are the sympathetic division and the parasympathetic division. The sympathetic system is associated with the fight-or-flight response, and parasympathetic activity is referred to by the epithet of rest and digest. ]]> 2021-03-08 21:20:52 UTC https://padlet.com/andriamartinez1/1e0p94al4sgd70jq/wish/1284556491 The receptors of each division with main locations of each receptor. andriamartinez1 https://padlet.com/andriamartinez1/1e0p94al4sgd70jq/wish/1284557040 The types of sympathetic or adrenergic receptors are alpha, beta-1 and beta-2. Alpha-receptors are located on the arteries. When the alpha receptor is stimulated by epinephrine or norepinephrine, the arteries constrict.]]> 2021-03-08 21:21:01 UTC https://padlet.com/andriamartinez1/1e0p94al4sgd70jq/wish/1284557040 The end organ responses that occur when each transmitter is stimulated. List the specific organ and state what response is generated in that organ when stimulated by each ANS division. andriamartinez1 https://padlet.com/andriamartinez1/1e0p94al4sgd70jq/wish/1284557727 Adrenal medulla- release of epinephrine
Arteries- vasoconstriction 
Heart- increased heart rate and contractility 
GI motility- decreased
Pupil of the eye- dilation
Urinary bladder- relaxation
Urinary sphincter- contraction
Postganglionic neurotransmitter- norepinephrine released ]]> 2021-03-08 21:21:13 UTC https://padlet.com/andriamartinez1/1e0p94al4sgd70jq/wish/1284557727 The drug classifications for each division of the ANS. Under each classification, identify which receptors are interacted with, then include the action that occurs. andriamartinez1 https://padlet.com/andriamartinez1/1e0p94al4sgd70jq/wish/1284558290 Parasympathomimetics: drugs that mimic the parasympathetic system (agonists, cholinergics)
Parasympatholytics: drugs that work against parasympathetic system (antagonists, anticholingerics)
