Question
Chapter 15, Problem 8CRCAQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
Health problems due to chronic sympathetic stimulation.
Introduction:
Sympathetic motor neurons stimulate flight and fight responses in the human body. These neurons innervate all the internal and external visceral organs such as the heart, stomach, intestine, sweat glands, arrector pilli muscles, smooth muscles of arteries, and veins. The visceral organs of the body are under involuntary control.

For a patient with a history of substance abuse, what special considerations should be taken into account for pain management?
Explain how the body responds to stress by addressing
the following aspects of neural processing:
Identify one sensory organ that responds to external
stimuli, and indicate the exact location within the organ
where the sensory reception takes place. Identify
the location in the brain that interprets the sensations of
the sensory organ you identified.
Identify the branch of the autonomic nervous system
that responds to a stressful situation and
identify one response the sensory organ you identified
makes in response to the stress.
In the overall scheme, of proposed causes of neurotransmitter dysfunction, the
following is true:
alteration of dopamine concentration influences obsession
alteration of serotonin concentration can affect the attention function
Dysfunctional production of the neurotransmitters, mentioned in class, can
influence cognitive function
dysfunction in the production of neurotransmitters happens only in the elderly

- Reserpine is a drug that can control high blood pressure by reducing the number of catecholamine neurotransmitters present in the synapse. Epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine are examples of catecholamine neurotransmitters.  One of the known side effects of reserpine is to cause the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. Parkinson's disease is associated with dopamine. Parkinson's disease occurs when the nerve cells in the part of the brain that controls muscle movement are gradually destroyed and the neurons can no longer produce dopamine to coordinate muscle movements.  Reserpine causes symptoms by a. inhibiting the release of dopamine from the presynaptic neuron b. blocking the dopamine receptor in the postsynaptic neuron c. breaking down the neurotransmitter acetylcholine in the synapse d. breaking down cholinesterase enzyme in the synapsearrow_forwardWhy do opiate drugs provide pain relief?arrow_forwardWhat is a healthy way to manage the pain one may be feeling?arrow_forward
- Which of the following statements summarizes how the sympathetic nervous system responds to stress? Select an answer from the options below The sympathetic nervous system slows heart rate, lowers blood pressure, and increases digestive and elimination processes. The sympathetic nervous system sends a signal to the endocrine system to release the calming hormone cortisol. The sympathetic nervous system works with the central nervous system to calm the body in an attempt to conserve energy. The sympathetic nervous system increases heart rate, respiration, and blood pressure; stops digestive and eliminative processes; and releases hormones into the bloodstream.arrow_forwardWhich of the following neurotransmitters serve as the body's natural painkiller?  Acetylcholine  Endorphins  Dopaminearrow_forwardEpinephrine and norepinephrine are chemicals that act as both neurotransmitters and hormones.

- Catecholamines are neurotransmitters that are produced in the adrenal glands and are released during a stress response. Some typical effects are increased heart rate, increased blood glucose levels and elevated blood pressure. Examples include dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine.
