Cardiovascular system.
It uses the Latin words for heart (cardio) and a small vessel (vasculum).
The alpha- and beta-adrenergic receptors are found throughout the body, including the cardiovascular system, smooth muscle, and glands. However, they are not typically located in the brain.
The cardiovascular system.
The cardiovascular system.
The system that pumps blood and includes the heart is called the cardiovascular system.
When the bladder walls stretch due to filling with urine, specialized nerve endings called stretch receptors become activated. These receptors send signals to the brain indicating that the bladder is full, which triggers the urge to urinate. This process is part of the autonomic nervous system's regulation of bladder function, allowing for voluntary control over urination. As a result, the brain coordinates the relaxation of the bladder sphincter, facilitating the release of urine.

The sensory receptors that detect change are called mechanoreceptors. These receptors are sensitive to mechanical stimuli such as pressure, vibration, and stretch, allowing the body to detect changes in its environment. Examples of mechanoreceptors include Pacinian corpuscles and Merkel cells.
The cardiovascular system sends oxygen to the muscles.
