The nervous system
The nervous system carries messages from receptors to centers for interpretation. Sensory receptors detect stimuli and send signals to the brain and spinal cord for processing and response.
Organs innervated by the parasympathetic nervous system. One addition to that are sweat glands. They are innervated by sympathetic nervous system, however, they have muscarinic receptors, NOT adrenergic receptors.
The peripheral nervous system (PNS) makes contact with the environment. It includes sensory receptors that detect stimuli like touch, temperature, and pain, transmitting this information to the central nervous system for processing.
The nervous system.
Those that act on the nervous system or receptors.
No. Muscarinic receptors are affected by acetylcholinergic neurotransmitters (ie. muscarine, atropine). Only the parasympathetic nervous system have muscarinic receptors. Epinephrine affects adrenergic receptors (symapthetic nervous system).
Cutaneous sensory receptors in the skin are part of the somatosensory portion of the nervous system.
