All the post-ganglionic parasympathatic reseptors are cholinergic (muscarinic) .

and all the post-ganglionic sympaythatic reseptors are adrenergic . Except for sweat glands , Piloerecter muscles , and a few blood vessels they use sympathatic nerves but a cholinergic resepotrs .

-Note that all the pre-ganglionic ( sympathatic and para sympathatic ) reseptors are cholinergic ( Nicotinic ).

-Note that the sweat glands on the palms of the hand are adrenergic , but the rest of the sweat glands are cholinergic.

How come the stimulation of sweat secretion is carried out by sympathetic system by MUSCARINIC RECEPTORS as said in your table eventhough they are pararsympathetic cholinergic receptors?

What are motor end plates associated with?

Motor end plates are associated with cholinergic receptors. It can be muscarinic if it is innervated by the post ganglionic parasympathetic nervous system. If under sympathetic, it will be innervated by adrenergic receptors (exception being sweat glands). For somatic nervous system it is nicotinic.

How sweat is produced?

Sweat is produced by the sweat glands under the skin. These are tubular glands under the epidermis of the skin. These glands are controlled by the hypothalamus (brain). When a person's body temperature rises, the temperature receptors on the skin sense it and sends the signals to the hypothalamus. This in turn makes the hypothalamus to signal the sweat glands to release sweat. This lowers the temperature of the skin and hence keeps the body cool.


Muscarinic receptors are found on?

Organs innervated by the parasympathetic nervous system. One addition to that are sweat glands. They are innervated by sympathetic nervous system, however, they have muscarinic receptors, NOT adrenergic receptors.
