The hormone you're referring to is adrenaline, also known as epinephrine. It is released by the adrenal glands in response to stress and triggers the "fight or flight" response, which prepares the body for immediate action. Adrenaline increases heart rate, enhances lung capacity, and boosts blood flow to muscles, enabling improved physical performance during stressful situations.
What else can I help you with?
What organ has involuntary and striated muscles?
The heart as both involuntary and striated muscles. The striations are similar skeletal muscles. Heart muscles are involuntary like the muscles seen in the digestive tract, called smooth muscle.
Are heart muscles under your control?
No, they are involuntary muscles, and will keep operating with out our control.
Muscles found only in the walls of your heart?
Cardiac muscles are found only in the walls of the heart. They are specialized muscles that contract and relax to pump blood throughout the body, and they are involuntary, meaning we cannot control their contraction.
How might your body be affected if a certain gland made releasing hormone that stimulates the thyroid?
If a gland releases excess thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), it can lead to an overactive thyroid, or hyperthyroidism. This condition may cause symptoms such as increased heart rate, weight loss, anxiety, and heat intolerance. Conversely, if the hormone release is insufficient, it could lead to hypothyroidism, resulting in fatigue, weight gain, and sensitivity to cold. Overall, the balance of thyroid hormones is crucial for maintaining metabolic processes in the body.
How can epinephrine have different effects on cardiac and small intestine cells?
Epinephrine stimulates the heart and inhibits the small intestine. This hormone is secreted during emergency to fight or flight. here you need to stimulate the heart to increase the cardiac output five times to face the challenges. Your digestion can take a rest in emergency. So the small intestine is inhibited.
What is the function of the stimulate?
The function of a stimulant is to speed up your metabolism which stimulates your heart and other muscles.
What is the desired effect of stimulants?
The function of a stimulant is to speed up your metabolism which stimulates your heart and other muscles.
How does tobacco effect the nervous system?
Tobacco can lead to lung cancer, heart problem, and other cancers.
What is the name of your hormone that makes your heart beat faster and directs more blood to your muscles?
nonsense i dint know the answer
What is the major targets for growth hormones?
The target gland for growth hormone (GH) are liver, chondrocyte (mature cell found in cartilage) and adipose cells (fat/lipid storing cells). ^ Someone else said this, but according to my anatomy book, "Although growth hormone stimulates most body cells to increase in size and divide, it's major target are the bones and skeletal muscles. Stimulation of the epiphyseal plate leads to long bone growth, and stimulation of skeletal muscles promotes increased muscle mass."
What hormone does nicotine cause your body to release?
Nicotine stimulates the release of adrenaline, also known as epinephrine, in the body. This hormone increases heart rate, blood pressure, and breathing rate, leading to the characteristic "fight or flight" response.
Does the heart have hormone production?
Heart does not produce hormones.It is not a hormone producing organ
What is the effect of pilocarpine on heart rate?
Pilocarpine stimulates the release of acetylcholine from parasympathetic neurons. Therefore, it stimulates the effect of vagal stimulation on the heart.
What stimulates ventrciular myocardium?
heart contraction
What is the instrument called that electrically stimulates the heart?
defibrulator
Are your heart muscles voluntary or involuntary?
Heart muscles are involuntary.
Why are all the muscles at the top of the heart?
The heart IS a muscle. If you're talking about skeletal muscles, then they are not all at the top of your heart (because what about your abdominal muscles, thigh muscles, calf muscles, etc?)
