What else can I help you with?
Based on the main neurotransmitters the sympathetic nervous system can be classified as what-?
These are motor neurons located in the ganglia of the PNS
How might you feel when your sympathetic nervous system is simulated?
With current technology it is not yet possible to simulate a sympathetic nervous system
What is the origin of the sympathetic nervous system?
The sympathetic nervous system has long been recognized as being active in correlation with excitation, but the origin of the term sympathetic was coined by Galen. He identified the sympathetic system as part of the nervous system, noted that the sympathetic chain follows the spinal cord 'in sympathy' and named it as such. It was only much later that Langley in the early 1800's first used the term para-sympathetic and took until Dale and Eccles to discovery something of it's function.
What is the abbreviation for the sympathetic nervous system?
The abbreviation for the Central Nervous System = CNS.
Is the adrenal cortex an extension of the sympathetic nervous system?
No, the adrenal cortex is not an extension of the sympathetic nervous system. The adrenal cortex is the outer region of the adrenal gland that produces hormones like cortisol and aldosterone. The sympathetic nervous system is a part of the autonomic nervous system that controls the body's fight or flight response.
Based on the main neurotransmitters the sympathetic nervous system can be classified as what-?
These are motor neurons located in the ganglia of the PNS
Which subdivision of the autonomic nervous system operates using the neurotransmitters norepinephrine and epinephrime?
sympathetic
Where are specialized second order neurons of the sympathetic nervous system that release neurotransmitters into the bloodstream located?
In the adrenal glands
Does the sympathetic nervous system cause vasodilation?
Yes, the sympathetic nervous system can cause vasodilation through the release of certain neurotransmitters that relax the smooth muscles in blood vessel walls, allowing them to widen and increase blood flow.
What component of the nervous system is associated with the fight or flight?
sympathetic nervous system.
Sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system's are subdivisions of what nervous system?
The sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems are subdivisions of the autonomic nervous system.
What nervous system gets your body ready for action in an emergency by increasing adrenalin and slowing down digestion.?
sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system
What activates the sympathetic nervous system?
epinephrine and norepinephrine stimulate the sympathetic nervous system
Two major neurotransmitters of the autonomic nervous system?
You have acetylcholine liberated at ganglion in both sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. You have noradrenaline secreted at post ganglionic sympathetic nerve terminals. You have acetylcholine secreted at post ganglionic parasympathetic nerve terminals.
Does the sympathetic system cause vasodilation?
Yes, the sympathetic nervous system can cause vasodilation in certain situations, such as during exercise or in response to stress. This is because the sympathetic system releases certain neurotransmitters that can relax blood vessels and increase blood flow to muscles and other tissues.
What components of the nervous system is associated with the fight or flight response?
sympathetic nervous system.
What hormone activated the sympathetic nervous system?
epinephrine and norepinephrine stimulate the sympathetic nervous system
