Which neurons are classified as an adrenergic fiber?
The neuron classified as an adrenergic fiber is the sympathetic postganglionic neuron.
Does Stephen Hawking smell?
No, Stephen Hawking does not smell because his body functions, including sweating and producing body odor, were affected by his motor neuron disease.
What effect does Curare have on muscle tissue?
It blocks the nicotinic cholinergic receptors on the muscle that normally bind the acetylcholine released by the motor neuron.
What has the author V P Whittaker written?
V. P. Whittaker has written: 'The cholinergic neuron and its target' -- subject(s): Cholinergic mechanisms, Electric organs in fishes, Models, Parasympathetic nervous system, Synapses, Torpedo (Fish)
What part of the neuron functions in cell metabolism?
The cell body, also known as the soma, is the part of the neuron that functions in cell metabolism. It contains the nucleus and other organelles responsible for maintaining the neuron's metabolic functions.
How does the special structure of a neuron relate to its functions?
because neuron is the cells that located in our brain
Once a sympathetic preganglionic axon reaches a trunk ganglion what can it do?
it can 1. synapse with a ganglionic neuron in the same trunk ganglion, 2. ascend or descend the sympathetic trunk to synapse in another trunk ganglion or 3. pass through the trunk ganglion and emerge from the sympathetic trunk without synapsing The answer: Synapse with a parasympathetic neuron in the same trunk ganglion
What is the final step in the release of norepinephrine from the sympathetic neuron?
The final step in the release of norepinephrine from the sympathetic neuron involves the fusion of vesicles containing norepinephrine with the cell membrane, leading to the release of norepinephrine into the synaptic cleft. This process is triggered by an action potential reaching the nerve terminal.
Which pathways comprise the autonomic nervous system?
two-neuron chain from CNS to effector organs. Parasympathetic and Sympathetic.
Why sympathetic nervous system has generalized effect while parasympathetic nervous system has localized effect?
the ratio of a preganglionic neuron to
What is the sympathetic ganglion that distributes postganglionic neuron processes to the kidneys and gonads?
The sympathetic ganglion that distributes postganglionic neuron processes to the kidneys and gonads is the prevertebral ganglion called the superior mesenteric ganglion. It is located in the abdominal cavity, anterior to the aorta and just below the origin of the superior mesenteric artery.
When an action potential reaches the end of a neuron it triggers the release of?
neurotransmitters from the synaptic vesicles into the synapse. These neurotransmitters then bind to receptor proteins on the adjacent neuron, initiating a new action potential in the postsynaptic neuron.
