Chapter 14 Quiz 1
- The effector(s) of an ANS is/are
- skeletal muscle only
- smooth muscle and glands only
- cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, skeletal muscle, and glands
- cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, and glands
- smooth muscle and skeletal muscle only
- Preganglionic sympathetic neurons secrete
- dopamine
- GABA
- epinephrine
- norepinephrine
- acetycholine
- Most postganglionic sympathetic fibers secrete
- dopamine
- epinephrine
- GABA
- acetycholine
- norepinephrine
- Most postganglionic sympathetic fibers secrete
- found as prevertebral ganglia
- located in the visceral effector
- found as collateral ganglia
- strung along the parasympathetic trunk
- found as paravertebral ganglia
- The cranial nerves that contribute to the cranial outflow of the parasympathetic divisions of the ANS are numbers
- I,IV,VI,XI
- I,V,VII,XI
- III,IV,V,XI
- IV, V, XI, XII
- II,IV,V,XI
- The sacral outflow of the parasympathetic division of the ANS forms the
- lesser splanchnic nerve
- pelvic splanchnic nerves
- pyramids
- lumbar splanchnic nerves
- greater splanchnic nerve
- Upon leaving the spinal chord via the ventral root, preganglionic sympathetic fibers pass through a
- white ramuscommunicans
- ciliary ganglion
- gray ramuscommunicans
- pyramid
- sphenopalatine ganglion
- Paravertebral ganglia are found
- within the CNS
- on the sympathetic trunk
- within the visceral effector
- as collateral ganglia
- near the visceral effector
- All preganglionic axons of the ANS
- are adrenergic fibers
- secrete muscarine
- secrete epinephrine
- are cholinergic fibers
- secrete norepinephrine
- The two types of adrenergic receptors are
- nicotine and muscarinic
- alpha and beta
- dopaminic and endorphinic
- sympathetic and parasympathetic
- gamma and omega
- The vagus nerves sends parasympathetic branches to the
- inferior hypogastric plexuses
- cardiac plexuses
- pelvic plexuses
- superior hypogastric plexuses
- lumbar plexuses
- Sympathetic postganglionic fibers that arise from paravertebral ganglia enter the ventral or dorsal ramus of a spinal nerve by way of
- pyramids
- splanchnic nerves
- white ramicommunicantes
- gray ramicommunicantes
- mesenteric nerves
- Beta receptors
- decrease heart rate
- increase heart rate
- inhibit ADH secretions
- bind to acetylcholine
- stimulate uterine contractions
- Tricyclic antidepressants work by
- inhibiting the activity of norepinephrine
- stimulating the production of endorphins
- preventing the attachment of neurotransmitter molecules to beta receptors
- inhibiting the actin of actetylcholinesterase
- prolonged the activity of norepinephrine
- Raynaud’s disease
- involves exaggerated vasodilation in response to cold temperatures
- is characterized by a failure of skeletal muscle to respond to acetylcholine
- degeneration of sympathetic nerve fibers
- involves exaggerated vasoconstriction in response to cold temperatures
- is characterized by orthostatic hypotension
