1. What is the name of the receptor sites that are located in the peripheral
po po po p o p o po p o po p o po po po po


vasculature, the heart, bronchial muscle, and bronchial blood vessels?
p o p o po po p o p o p o p o p o


a. Beta 2 receptors po c. Alpha receptors
p o po


b. Gamma receptors d.
po Beta 1 receptors p o po




ANS: C p o


Alpha receptors are located in the peripheral vasculature, the heart, bronchial muscle,
po po po po po po po po po po po


and bronchial blood vessels.
po po p o p o




PTS: 1

2. Which receptor site results in tachycardia, an increased potential for arrhythmias,
po po po po po po po po po po


and an increased cardiac output?
po po p o p o p o


a. Beta 1 receptor po p oc. Alpha receptor po


b. Beta 2 receptor po p od. Delta receptor p o




ANS: A p o


Stimulation of the beta-1 receptors results in tachycardia, an increased potential for
p o p o p o p o p o po p o p o p o p o p o



arrhythmias, and an increased cardiac output. In administering drugs to the
p o po p o p o p o p o p o p o po p o p o


pulmonary system, stimulation of the beta-1 sites is not desired. However, most
p o po p o po po p o p o p o p o p o p o p o


respiratory pharmacologic agents have some
p o p o p o p o p o



beta-1 stimulatory po




po effect. PTS: po 1

3. Stimulation of the beta 2 receptors causes p o p o po p o p o p o p o


a. peripheral vasoconstriction and mild bronchoconstriction in the lungs.
po po po po po po po


b. tachycardia, an increased potential for arrhythmias, and an increased cardiac output.
po po po po po po po po po po


c. bronchodilation.
d. peripheral vasodilation, bradycardia, and decreased cardiac output.
po po po po po po




ANS: C p o


Stimulation of the beta-2 receptors in the lungs causes bronchodilation.
po po po po po po po po p o




PTS: 1

4. Acetylcholine stimulates p o p o


a. the Vagus nerve. po po


b. the adrenergic receptors.
po po


c. the sympathetic nervous system.
po po po


d. the cholinergic receptors.
po po




ANS: D p o


Acetylcholine stimulates the cholinergic receptors.

PTS: 1

5. What immunoglobulin antibody sensitizes the mast cell?
po po po po po po


a. Leukotrienes c. Histamine

, b. IgE d. Prostaglandins
ANS: B p o


The IgE (reagin) antibodies sensitize the mast cell. Repeated exposure to the antigen causes
po po po p o po p o p o po po po po po po


the degranulation of the mast cell.
po po p o p o p o p o




PTS: 1

6. Which of the following is caused by
po po po po po po po histamine release from the mast cells?
po p o po p o p o


I. Bronchodilation
II. Increased bronchial gland secretion po po po


III. Increased amount of mucus present po p o p o po p o in the airways
po po


a. I and II only
po p o p o c. III only po


b. II and III only po p o p o d. I, II, III p o p o




ANS: B p o


Histamine is also a potent bronchoconstrictor. In addition to its bronchoconstrictive activity,
po po po po po po po po po po po


histamine
po



II) increases bronchial gland secretion, causing III) an increase in the amount
po p o p o p o p o po p o p o p o po po


of mucus present in the airways. Histamine may also have an effect on
p o p o po p o p o p o p o p o p o p o p o p o p o


vascular permeability similar to the effect of- SRS-A.
p o p o p o po p o p o p o p o




PTS: 1

7. A sympathomimetic drug would cause
po p o p o p o p o


a. bronchodilation. c. Histamine release. po


b. bronchoconstriction. d. Vagus nerve stimulation. po po




ANS: A p o


A sympathomimetic drug would cause bronchodilation. Sympathomimetic agents are the drugs most
po po po po po po po po po po po


commonly used to reverse bronchospasm.
p o p o p o p o p o




PTS: 1

8. Stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system causes
po p o p o p o p o po p o


a. vascular permeability. c. bronchodilation.
po


b. decreased blood pressure. d. bronchoconstriction.
po p o




ANS: C p o


Sympathetic nervous system stimulation causes bronchodilation.
po po po po po




PTS: 1

9. Which of the following would NOT cause a bronchospasm or bronchoconstriction?
po po po po po po po p o po p o


a. Leukotrienes c. Histamine
b. Beta 1 receptors po d. Prostaglandins
p o




ANS: B p o


Beta-1 receptors would not cause a bronchospasm or bronchoconstriction.
po p o p o p o p o p o p o p o


Leukotrienes are one of many chemical mediators released by the mast cells.
p o p o po po p o p o p o p o p o p o p o p o


Leukotrienes cause a direct, strong bronchoconstriction. Histamine is also a
p o p o p o p o p o po p o p o p o p o


potent bronchoconstrictor. Prostaglandins cause a
p o p o strong bronchospasm, especially p o p o p o p o p o p o


in asthmatic patients.
