What else can I help you with?
What other body system is directly connected to the sympathetic nervous system?
The sympathetic nervous system is directly connected to the cardiovascular system. Activation of the sympathetic nervous system leads to an increase in heart rate, stronger heart contractions, and constriction of blood vessels, helping to prepare the body for fight or flight responses.
What of the effects could result from activation of the sympathetic nervous system?
A prominent class of motor neurons in the sympathetic nervous system are involved with vasoconstriction also with an increase in the heart rate.
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 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.
What nervous systems directs the body's fight or flight response?
The respiratory system
What is between the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous system?
The parasympathetic and sympathetic divisions of the autonomic nervous system or antagonistic. They have opposing effects.
The effects of the sympathetic nervous system are essentially opposite of which nervous system?
The effects of the sympathetic nervous system are essential opposite those of the parasympathetic nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system accelerates functions such as heart rate and breathing and the parasympathetic slows these bodily processes down. The sympathetic also inhibits digestion, whereas the parasympathetic stimulates digestion. The sympathetic nervous system produces "fight-or-flight" reactions, while the parasympathetic functions under relaxed conditions.
Which system would be activated by the flight-or-flight response?
respiratory system /\ The sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system accelerates functions such as heart rate and breathing.
What does sympathomiminic mean?
An agent that mimics the effects of the sympathetic nervous system.Example: Epinephrine and norepinephrine are sympathomimetic hormones because they produce effects that mimic those brought about by the sympathetic nervous system.
What component of the nervous system is associated with the fight or flight?
sympathetic nervous system.
Are effects of tobacco and alcohol the same?
Tobacco effects mainly the respiratory system and nervous system. Alcohol effects the circulatory system the digestive system (e.g. liver) and the 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
