Question
Chapter 49.1, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To explain: How adrenal medulla is able to produce effects throughout the body even though it receives input only from sympathetic nervous system and pre-ganglionic neurons.
Concept introduction:
Preganglionic fiber terminates in a ganglion. There are axons from sympathetic neurons that reach the adrenal medulla which is the inner portion of the adrenal gland.

15. Match the neurotransmitter to its description:___________________________________Usually inhibitory; inhibits pain; released only in CNS___________________________________Usually excitatory; release is blocked by botulinum toxin; released at synapses in both the CNS and PNS; has nicotinic receptors on skeletal muscles at the NMJ; has muscarinic receptors at visceral organs and in the CNS.___________________________________Can be excitatory or inhibitory depending on where it is released and its target. Produced by the substantia nigra in midbrain; also by hypothalamus, etc.; “feel good” neurotransmitter; people with Parkinson’s disease have a deficiency of this. Plays a role in moderating motor impulses to skeletal muscles. Released mostly in the CNS.___________________________________Usually inhibitory. Released in the CNS. Plays a role in mood regulation.___________________________________Released in CNS, including spinal cord. It is the major excitatory neurotransmitter;…

- A target effector, such as the heart, receives input from the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems. What is the actual difference between the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions at the level of those connections (i.e., at the synapse)?arrow_forwardWatch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/summation) to learn about summation. The process of converting electrical signals to chemical signals and back requires subtle changes that can result in transient increases or decreases in membrane voltage. To cause a lasting change in the target cell, multiple signals are usually added together, or summated. Does spatial summation have to happen all at once, or can the separate signals arrive on the postsynaptic neuron at slightly different times? Explain your answer.arrow_forwardVisit this site (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/neurolab) to see a virtual neurophysiology lab, and to observe electrophysiological processes in the nervous system, where scientists directly measure the electrical signals produced by neurons. Often, the action potentials occur so rapidly that watching a screen to see them occur is not helpful. A speaker is powered by the signals recorded from a neuron and it pops each time the neuron fires an action potential. These action potentials are firing so fast that it sounds like static on the radio. Electrophysiologists can recognize the patterns within that static to understand what is happening. Why is the leech model used for measuring the electrical activity of neurons instead of using humans?arrow_forward

How does partial damage to the neuronal membrane lead to excessive amounts of neurotransmitter release? a. Sodium can freely enter the cell to depolarize it b. Potassium can freely enter the cell to depolarize it c. Chloride can freely exit the cell to depolarize it d. GABA receptors become blocked, preventing proper suppression e. Dopamine receptors become activated, exciting the neuron f. None of the abovearrow_forward1.
