releasing ACh onto muscarinic (M) receptors - 6What neurotransmitter do the neurones of the PSNS always release?Acetylcholine
- 7Sympathetic nervous system: ____________ preganglionic fibre releasing _____ onto _____ receptorsShort preganglionic fibres
releasing ACh onto N receptors - 8Sympathetic nervous system: Ganglion is located in the ______________________ close to the spinal cordparavertebral chain
- 9Sympathetic nervous system: Innervates _____________ where ________________ is releasedadrenal medulla
adrenaline (Ad) - 10Sympathetic nervous system: ___________ unmylenated postganglionic fibre releasing ___________ onto ________________Long postganglionic fibres

Neuroeffector
Neuromuscular - 17What are the two forms of Cholinesterase (ChE) ?1. "True" cholinesterase or acetylcholinesterase (AChE)
2. Pseudocholinesterase or butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) - 18Anticholinesterases have three types:1. Short-acting
2. Medium-acting
3. Irreversible - 19Noradrenergic transmission: Noradrenergic neurones are_____ and release _______Postganglionic sympathetic neurons
NAd - 20Nicotinic receptors are found where?in the postsynaptic neurone of both PSNS and SNS
- 21NAd and Ad are terminated by what two processes?Uptake:
Neuronal uptake (75%)
Extraneuronal uptake (25%)
(blocked by TCA's e.g. amphetamine, cocaine)
Enzymatic degradation - 22What are the types of postsynaptic receptors?Cholinergic:

Adrenergic:
a1 and a2 receptors - 23What is a type of muscarinic agonist?ACh
- 24What is a type of muscarinic antagonist?Atropine and ipratropium
- 25Autonomic tone: Sympathetic tone predominates what?veins/arteries
sweat glands - 26Parasympathetic tone predominates?Just about everywhere else:
eye, heart, GIT, GU, GIT glands, Bronchi
