What causes heart rate to increase during a fight or flight response?
epinephrine and norepinephrine epinephrine and norepinephrine
What works by increasing activity in certain areas of the brain to increase concentration and wakefulness?
Orexin increases activity in certain areas of the brain to increase concentration and wakefulness. Orexin reacts with norepinephrine neuron receptors.

What is the function of epinephrine and nor epinephrine?
Think of these as the 'fight or flight' stimulants.They increase heart rate, heart volume and contraction force.Blood flow to the limbs is increased.Blood flow to the digestive organs is reduced.Broncho dilation, pupil dilation... there are many and varied effects across the body.
What does the SNS do?
The sympathetic nervous system is responsible for maintaining fight-or-flight and alertness-related functions of the autonomic nervous system. It's key neurotransmitter class, the catecholamines (dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine) induce vasoconstriction (increasing blood pressure and shunting blood away from the skin in case of injury), increase heart rate (to supply more blood to the body), increase the breakdown of glycogen to glucose (to allow for more readily-available chemical energy for cells in a higher activity state), and control various other "alerting" or "stimulating" functions throughout the body.

When a person is physically stressed what hormone is released quickly to stimulate an increase in blood glucose concentration?
is it epinephrine?
Does epinephrine increase or decrease peristalsis?
decreases it
What hormone increases your heart rate?
Two hormones that affect heart rate are epinephrine and norepinephrine. Both are actively involved with the body's stress response system. These hormones cause the body to increase heart rate so that oxygenated blood can reach muscles faster to promote more muscle strength and endurance.
How do sympathetic and parasympathetic activity control heart rate during hypobaric hypoxic conditions What is the basic mechanism of action?
Sympathetic activity during hypobaric hypoxic condition would increase while parasympathetic action would decrease. Parasympathetic activity via the vegus nerve would decrease its affects on the AV and SA nodes because of the increase in sympathetic activity. Cyclic AMP from the increase in sympathetic activity blocks Ach from binding muscarinic receptors on the nerves. This blocking of Ach would slow G protein from keeping leak K channels being open and for the G Protein to slow its closing of T-type Ca channels. Increase in sympathetic activity leads to norepinephrine and epinephrine being released. They bind to B1 receptors that activate Gs to activate Adenylate cyclase to activate cAMP that causes pro Kinase to open funny channles and t-type Ca channles causing depolerization.
What are the 3 main parts of the human heart?
The heart rate is controlled by the opposing actions of sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves and by the action of epinephrine released from the adrenal gland. Norepinephrine, released by sympathetic nerves in the heart, and epinephrine, released by the adrenal gland, increase the heart rate, while acetylcholine, released from parasympathetic nerves, decreases
What is the role of the human in temperature regulation?
Several mechanisms regulate body temperature. Vasoconstriction of blood vessels at the skin surface occurs when temperatures fall, and vasodilation of blood vessels occurs when temperatures rise. Norepinephrine , thyroxine and epinephrine are secreted when to increase the metabolic rate when temperatures drop.
The release of epinephrine into the bloodstream is most likely to?
increase heart rate
How does a stimulant brain function?
because of the time they increase levels of dopamine and norepinephrine
