Epinephrine is also known as adrenaline. It is a hormone secreted by the adrenal glands and is derived from an amino acid called tyrosine. It plays a large role in the "fight or flight response" that humans have to stressful situations - it provides energy so the body's major muscles can respond to the stress or threat, in a variety of different responses. Epinephrine is also used in medicine to relieve allergic reactions or when doing CPR.

Pheochromocytoma is an adrenal tumor that results in excess epinephrine and norepinephrine
pheochromocytoma
The adrenal gland secretes epinephrine--also known as adrenalin.
epinephrine
Because it causes less cardiovascular side effects than common epinephrine
The two intracellular responses in the liver to epinephrine are inhibition of glycogen synthesis and the release of glucose in to the bloodstream. Epinephrine helps with short term stress and provides energy.
cat.e.cho.la.mine (kt-kl-mn, -kô-) n. Any of a group of amines derived from catechol that have important physiological effects as neurotransmitters and hormones and include epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine.
norepinephrine/noradrenaline working in tandem with epinephrine/adrenaline
This depends on how the epinephrine is packaged as a medication. The two most common dilutions of epinephrine are 1:1,000 and 1:10,000, but this is not the density. Density: Epinephrine that is 1:1,000 has a density of 1mg/ml. Epinephrine that is 1:10,000 has a density of 0.1mg/ml. (Density = mass/volume) (Here the mass is in milligrams and the volume in milliliters.) -Chemistry!

They both function as neurotransmitters. They both function as hormones.
Epinephrine or adrenaline, and non epinephrine or noradrenaline.
pheochromocytoma
You probably mean "epinephrine". This is the preferred term to use when referring to the neurotransmitter/hormone that used to be known as "adrenaline".
