CLARK EXAM 3 2025 QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS
Sympathetic System affects the HEART using what? - ....ANSWER ...-1.
Catecholamines - Norepinephrine (neurons)
Epinephrine (adrenal gland)
B1 receptors
/\ activity of I(f) (ion-funny channels) --> /\ Na+ &
Ca+ permeability --> DEPOLARIZES FASTER
2. /\ CONDUCTION VELOCITY
3. /\ CONTRACTILITY
/\ Ca+ permeability

, Why does the Sympathetic System increase contractility in the heart? -
....ANSWER ...-it increases Ca+ permeability--therefore calcium gets into
the contracting cells quicker. The more calcium present, the harder the contraction
is going to be.
aka--more Cross-Bridge Cycling
Cardiovascular control center is where in the brain? - ....ANSWER ...-
medulla oblongata
Sympathetic and parasympathetic neurons alter heart rate through which control
system? - ....ANSWER ...-antagonistic control
what neurons affect the heart with Parasympathetic system? -
....ANSWER ...-ACh
What receptors does the ACh used in Parasympathetic system bind to and in
which type of cells? - ....ANSWER ...-Muscarinic receptors of autorhythmic
cells
also the effector in this pathway
