epinephrine and norpepinephrine
What is difference between thermal and photochemical reaction?
Photochemical reaction: a chemical reaction induced by electromagnetic radiations: ul- traviolet, visible, etc.) Thermal reaction: a chemical reaction induced by increasing the temperature (ex.: thermal dissociation, etc.)
How could epinephrine be used for someone bleeding from an injury?
Epinephrine is a hormone commonly known as Adrenalin. The body normally releases this during a time of stress, injury etc. The effects of epinephrine on the body are increased breathing rate, increased (systolic) blood pressure, increased heart rate. Now, if someone were bleeding due to an injury, an increased heart rate will cause an increase in the blood loss. The reason that epinephrine is administered to a patient is usually for a sever allergic reaction or to restore a rhythm in cardiac arrest.

Why does epinephrine induce pulmonary edema?
Increased after load caused by epinephrine's vasoconstrictive properties can cause difficulty ejecting blood from the left ventricle which causes backup into the pulmonary veins.
What are the two imtracellular responses in the liver to 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.
