17
Q

Where does the sympathetic nervous system originate?

A

In the Thoracolumbar region (T1-L2)

18
Q

Why is the para-sympathetic system called CranialSacral?

A

It comes from 4 cranial nerves (3,7,9,10) and 3 sacral segments

19
Q

Pupil constriction and accommodation of the lens is controlled by which system and comes from which cranial nerve

20
Q

What neurotransmitter do Beta receptors bind?

A

Norepinephrine

21
Q

What neurotransmitter do alpha receptors bind?

A

Epinephrine and Norepinephrine

22
Q

Are type 1 adrenergic receptors typically excitatory or inhibitory? How does it effect blood flow?

A

excitatory. Vasoconstrictor decrees blood flow

23
Q

Type 2 Adrenergic receptor typically excitatory or inhibitory? How does it effect blood flow?

A

inhibitory. Vasodiolator which increases blood flow.

24
Q

A

inhibitory

25
Q

What is the effect of cAMP in beta receptors?

A

excitatory

26
Q
