ed and the receptor type of the effectors comparison of somatic and autonomic systems divisions of the ans ans divisions: sympathetic and parasympathetic the sympathetic mobilizes the body during extreme situations the parasympathetic performs maintenance activities and conserves body energy the two divisions counterbalance each other parasympathetic division outflow vagus nerve carries nearly 80% of the total craniosacral flow. cranial outflow cranial nerve ganglion effector organ(s) occulomotor (iii) ciliary eye facial (vii) pterygopalatin submandibular salivary, nasal, and lacrimal glands glossopharyngeal (ix) otic parotid salivary glands vagus (x) located within the walls of target organs heart, lungs, and most visceral organs sacral outflow s2-s4 located within the walls of the target organs large intestine, urinary bladder, ureters, and reproductive organs structure of the parasympathetic division * role of the parasympathetic division concerned with keeping body energy use low involves the d activities – digestion, defecation, and diuresis its activity is illustrated …

t of ach binding to nicotinic receptors is always stimulatory cont, 2- muscarinic receptors occur on all effector cells stimulated by postganglionic cholinergic fibers the effect of ach binding: can be either inhibitory or excitatory depends on the receptor type of the target organ adrenergic receptors the two types of adrenergic receptors are alpha and beta each type has two or three subclasses (1, 2, 1, 2 , 3) effects of ne binding to:  receptors is generally stimulatory  receptors is generally inhibitory a notable exception – ne binding to  receptors of the heart is stimulatory effects of drugs atropine – blocks parasympathetic effects neostigmine – inhibits acetylcholinesterase and is used to treat myasthenia gravis tricyclic antidepressants – prolong the activity of ne on postsynaptic membranes over-the-counter drugs for colds, allergies, and nasal congestion – stimulate -adrenergic receptors beta-blockers – attach mainly to 1 receptors and reduce heart …
