The adrenergic receptor that causes bronchodilation when stimulated is?

The beta2 adrenergic receptor is primarily responsible for bronchodilation when stimulated by agonists such as beta2-adrenergic agonists like albuterol. Stimulation of these receptors leads to smooth muscle relaxation in the airways, resulting in increased airflow and improved breathing.


What type of receptor does not trigger a sensation?

Silent receptors are a type of receptor that do not trigger a sensation when stimulated, even though they are capable of detecting stimuli. These receptors do not send signals to the brain to generate a conscious perception.

How long does receptor activation take?

Receptor activation can happen within milliseconds to seconds when a ligand binds to the receptor, triggering a conformational change. The time it takes for the receptor to fully activate and initiate downstream signaling pathways can vary depending on the specific receptor and the cellular context.


What happens if a receptor is continuously stimulated does the kind of receptor make a difference Does the intensity or strength make a difference?

The type of receptor makes a difference. The intensity makes a difference. Some receptors need continual stimulation, while others expect only limited stimulation. Skin, eyes, ears, etc. and internal organs, etc., all have receptors.

What is the receptor of a reflex arc?

Sensory receptor located at the distal end of a neuron or an associated sensory structure. When stimulated it creates a receptor potential, when that reaches its threshold, it will trigger 1 or more nerve impulses in the sensory neuron.


What happens in the nervous system when this receptor cell is stimulated by light?

When a receptor cell in the nervous system, such as a photoreceptor in the retina, is stimulated by light, it undergoes a process called phototransduction. This involves the conversion of light into electrical signals through a series of biochemical reactions, leading to the hyperpolarization of the cell membrane. As a result, the release of neurotransmitters is reduced, altering the activity of adjacent bipolar and ganglion cells, which ultimately transmits visual information to the brain for processing. This entire process enables the perception of light and visual stimuli.
