- The sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems are very important in maintaining homeostasis in the human body. In your clinic you meet patients with either high blood pressure or low blood pressure. Explain how you will utilize either the sympathetic or parasympathetic systems to treat either a patient with high blood pressure or low blood pressure? (Take a patient with high blood pressure and describe what you will do and take a patient with low blood pressure and describe what you will do).arrow_forwardHow would your nervous system respond if you encounter a snake on a hiking trail? Group of answer choices The parasympathetic nervous system would send signals to increase the heart rate, decrease salivation, and increase respiration. The somatic nervous system sends signals to the central nervous system to increase heart rate and respiration. The sympathetic nervous system would send signals to increase the heart rate, decrease salivation, and increase respiration. The autonomic nervous system would send signals to the somatic nervous system to increase respiration and heart rate.arrow_forwardScientists have suggested that the autonomic nervous system is not well-adapted to modern human life.

About 70% of people with epilepsy can be treated with medication to prevent seizures from occurring. If medication does not work, surgery is an option for some patients. One of the procedures involves cutting the brain so that the seizures cannot be spread to other parts of the brain. A common goal of the surgical procedure to treat epileptic seizures is to reduce the connection between the two hemispheres of the brain. By cutting through this structure, an epileptic seizure occurring on one side of the brain will not be spread to the other side. Identify the structure that connects the two hemispheres of the brain.arrow_forwardThis is a biology question regarding nerve impulses. Neurofibromatosis type 1 is a condition where tumours can grow in the nerves near the skin. The growth of tumours prevents the action potentials from quickly travelling through the neurons.
