Question

Classify the following characteristics to demonstrate your knowledge of differences between the autonomic and somatic divisions of the nervous system. Neurons release acetylcholine that binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors located on the effector organ:s Single neuron between the CNS and effectors Has two-neuron chain between the CNS and effectors Receptors on effector organs are also responsive to epinephrine that is released into the blood by the adrenal medulla Neurons release norepinephrine that binds to adrenergic receptors located on the effector organs Activates skeletal muscles Innervates smooth and cardiac muscle, glands, and Gl neurons Can lead only to excitation of the effectors to muscarinic acetylcholine receptors located on the effector organs Can lead to excitation or inhibition of the effectors Neurons are also called motor neurons Autonomic Nervous System Somatic Nervous System

Explanation / Answer

somatic nervos system

1. single neuron between the cns and effectors

2. activates the skeletal muscle

3. can leads only to the excitation of the effectors

autonamic nervos system

1.has two neuron chain between the cns and effectors

2.innervates smooth and cardiac muscle glands and gi neuron  

3. can lead to exitation or inhibation of effectors

4.neurons release norepinephrine that binds to adregenric receptors located on the effectors organs

5.neurons are also called motor neurons

6. receptors are effector organs are also responsive to epinephrine that is released in to the blood by the adrenal medulla

7.neuron binds to the acetyl choline that binds to the muscarinic receptors located on the effector organs

8. neuron that binds to the acetyl choline that binds to the nicotine receptors located in the effector organs
