resting and digesting

For which of the following activities is the parasympathetic nervous system generally responsible?

False

Conduction through the autonomic efferent chain is faster than conduction in the somatic motor system.

skeletal muscle

Which of the following is NOT an autonomic nervous system (ANS) effector?

emergency action

Chapter 14 Matching Questions 1-4

Use the figure to match the following.

Drag the appropriate labels to their respective targets. 1 target will be left blank.

parasympathetic division

Which component of the ANS is characterized by ganglia located in or near effector organs?

thoracic and lumbar

Outflow of the sympathetic division occurs from which regions of the CNS?

focusing the eyes on close objects

Oculomotor nerves are responsible for which of the following functions?

True

The sympathetic division is also called the "thoracolumbar division" of the autonomic nervous system.

nicotinic; muscarinic

The two types of receptors that bind acetylcholine are __________ and __________ receptors.

Drugs that prolong the activity of norepinephrine on the postsynaptic membrane help to relieve depression.

Which types of drugs are used to help relieve depression?

Parasympathetic stimulation causes vasodilation of blood vessels in the penis, leading to erection; sympathetic stimulation then causes ejaculation.

Which of the following best demonstrates an example of cooperation of the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems?

hypothalamus

an increase in heart rate

What is the effect of norepinephrine on the heart?

antagonistic

The two divisions of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) normally have a(n) __________ relationship.

adrenal medulla

Which target organ is NOT affected by the parasympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system (ANS)?
