Does the Sympathetic nervous system stimulation raise blood sugar?
No sypathetic nervous system does not raise blood sugar. It decreaces blood sugar concentration by providing that sugar(glucose) as an energy source to muscles which are under fight or flight response.
How can a low blood sugar level affect you?
Low blood sugar is also known as Hypoglycemia. Having low blood sugar can result in the symptoms of perspiration, rapid heart beat, anxiety and shakiness and is the nervous system response to having low levels of circulating blood sugar.
Does sugar affect your nervous system?
no
Does the sympathetic nervous lower blood sugar when stressed?
Dilate
The autonomic nervous system contains two branches called the?
The autonomic nervous system also has two divisions: the sympathetic division and the parasympatheticdivision. These two divisions have antagonistic (opposing) effects on the internal organs they innervate (send nerves to act on).The sympathetic division, shown at the left, is the emergency system. It prepares the body to put out energy and to protect it from effects of injury. It shuts the gut down, speeds up the heart, increases blood pressure, dilates (makes bigger) the pupils of the eyes, makes more glucose (blood sugar) available in the blood for energy, etc. Cannon described these reactions as preparation for fight or flight (running away).The parasympathetic division, shown at the right, is the "housekeeping" division. It acts to replace and recover from the activities of living. Its action is (almost always) the opposite of the sympathetic division. It activates the gut for digestion, slows the heart rate, decreases the blood pressure, etc.
What kind of physical ilness if you not managed stress?
IT WILL BREAK DOWN YOUR ENTIRE NERVOUS SYSTEM SLOWLY ..Resulting blood pressure , blood sugar,indigestion ,headache,breathing problems-lots more
What system removes excess sugar and impurities from the blood?
The excretory system removes excess sugar and impurities from the blood.
How do the endocrine system and the nervous system differ?
Your nervous system helps maintain balance in the body's processes by interpreting information about the environment and then telling parts of the body to act. Your endocrine system also helps balance your body's processes. But it controls slower processes, such as growth and sugar levels in the blood.
Why is homeostasis so important in terms of autonomic nervous system?
homeostasis is in place to ensure that the regulation if the body is kept at an equilibrium. This means that that the body is in the state of balance in terms of everything that it contains e.g blood sugar levels. By keeping everything in the body constant, the bosy can function correctly.
What are some of the differences between the endocrine system and the nervous system?
The endocrine system communicates changes in physiology via hormones that travel in the blood. The nervous system communicate messages that regulate many physiological functions via neurons that communicate by synapses and neurotransmitters.
What is the energy source for the Central Nervous System?
Glucose. A six carbon sugar.
Does using heroin cause hyperglycemia?
Yes. Heroin can cause hyperglycemia because heroin stimulates the sympathetic branch of the nervous system. This branch is responsible for the constricted pupils and fast heart rate you see in heroin overdose. The high blood sugar is due to the increased demands of the cells because the metabolic rate of the cells is increased. Therefore, the sympathetic nervous system stimulates the release of stored sugar from the liver and it enters the blood stream. This causes the hyperglycemia.
