The Type of efferent nerve pathways

Question 1

In the parasympathetic efferent pathway what kind of neurotransmitter is used in the pre-ganglionic synapse?

Answer 1

acetyl choline

Question 2

In the parasympathetic efferent pathway what kind of neurotransmitter is used in the post-synaptic synapse?

Answer 2

acetyl choline

Question 3

What is an example of an effector controlled by the parasympathetic pathway?

Answer 3

salivary glands

Question 4

In the sympathetic efferent pathway what neurotransmitter is used at the pre-synaptic ganglionic synapse?

Answer 4

acetylcholine

Question 5

In the sympathetic efferent pathway what neurotransmitter is used in the post-synaptic ganglionic synapse?

Answer 5

Noradrenaline alpha and beta

Question 6

Give an example of an effector controlled by the sympathetic efferent pathway?

Answer 6

BLOOD VESSEL

Question 7

Describe the features of the efferent nerve pathways that control sweat glands?

Answer 7

pre-ganglionic neurone uses Acetylcholine in its synapse with a post-ganglionic neurone
Then at the neuroeffector junction - acetylcholine is used again

Question 8

What neurotransmitter is used in the sympathetic efferent pathway between a sympathetic neurone and the adrenal medulla?

Answer 8

Acetylcholine

Question 9

What does the adrenal medulla release in response to acetylcholine?

Answer 9

• noradrenaline

- adrenaline

Question 10

what time of neurotransmitter is used in the somatic nervous system at a neuromuscular junction?

Answer 10

acetylcholine
