Answer #1

Answer

The organs or tissue function inhibited by sympathetic division of human's nervous system are :


1) Pancreas : Inhibits release of pancreatic juices into the duodenum.

2) Smooth muscle of GI tract (mainly esophagus and stomach) : Inhibits peristalsis as well as inhibits gastrointestinal secretions.


3) Large intestine : Decreases motility of intestine and inhibits defecation.

4) Detrusor muscle of urinary bladder : Inhibits bladder contraction.

5) Salivary glands : Inhibits release of saliva from salivary glands.

You are conducting a research project that involves studying donated human nervous system tissue. You are trying to determine whether a drug your lab has tested in mice has the same effect on neuronal signaling in human brain tissue. You’ve designed an experiment in which you will be extracting neurons from different areas of the brain or brainstem from the donated human tissue that are known to contain cells that produce either dopamine, norepinephrine, or serotonin. You stain the presynaptic...

The Autonomic Nervous System can be challenging to understand because it is connected to virtually every body function in opposite ways. We are going to explore the physiology of the ANS in this discussion by looking at specific examples of how it works. For your first discussion post, describe how the parasympathetic nervous system influences one function in your body. For example, the parasympathetic nervous system causes decreased blood pressure. If you chose this body function, you would describe the...
