Yes, sympathetic stimulation can increase blood glucose levels. During stress or in response to the "fight or flight" response, the sympathetic nervous system activates the adrenal medulla to release catecholamines like epinephrine. These hormones promote glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis in the liver, leading to an increase in blood glucose levels to provide energy for the body.

What does epinephrine do to the blood vessels?

Sympathetic stimulation (I'm guessing you mean your bodie's reaction in fight or flight) makes the blood vessles tighten, or constrict, hightening blood pressure. This is bad for you over long periods of time.


Blood pressure when parasympathetic stimulation to the heart increases or blood pressure when sympathetic stimulation to the heart increases?

When sympathetic stimulation to the heart increases, it typically leads to an increase in heart rate and contractility, resulting in elevated blood pressure. In contrast, parasympathetic stimulation, primarily through the vagus nerve, decreases heart rate and can lead to lower blood pressure. Therefore, sympathetic activation raises blood pressure, while parasympathetic activation generally reduces it.


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 do the kidneys react to sympathetic nervous system stimulation?

Sympathetic stimulation results in renin secretion by the kidneys and causes a relaxation of the bladder. Accompanied by a constriction of the bladder sphincter, sympathetic stimulation tends to decrease urination and promote fluid retention.


What is the sympathetic effect on the heart?

Heart rate increases with sympathetic nervous system. There is increase in stroke volume and cardiac output. With stimulation of vagus nerve or parasympathetic nervous system, You have decrease in heart rate. There is decrease the stroke volume and cardiac output.


Does coronary vessels have both parasympathetic and sympathetic innervation?

Yes, coronary vessels have both parasympathetic and sympathetic innervation. Parasympathetic input leads to vasodilation of coronary vessels, while sympathetic input can cause vasoconstriction in response to stress or exercise. The balance between these two systems helps regulate blood flow to the heart.
