MULTIPLE CHOICE t




1. What is the name of the receptor sites that are located in the peripheral vasculature, the heart, bronchial
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t


muscle, and bronchial blood vessels?
t t t t t


a. Beta 2 receptors t t c. Alpha receptors t


b. Gamma receptors d. Beta 1 receptors
t t t t t




ANS: C t


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


blood vessels.
t t




PTS: 1 t




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


cardiac output?
t t


a. Beta 1 receptor t t c. Alpha receptor t


b. Beta 2 receptor t t d. Delta receptor t t




ANS: A t


Stimulation of the beta-1 receptors results in tachycardia, an increased potential for arrhythmias, and an
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t



increased cardiac output. In administering drugs to the pulmonary system, stimulation of the beta-1 sites
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t


is not desired. However, most respiratory pharmacologic agents have some beta-1 stimulatory effect.
t t t t t t t t t t t t t




PTS: 1 t




3. Stimulation of the beta 2 receptors causes t t t t t t t


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


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


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




ANS: C t


Stimulation of the beta-2 receptors in the lungs causes bronchodilation.
t t t t t t t t t




PTS: 1 t




4. Acetylcholine stimulates t t


a. the Vagus nerve. t t


b. the adrenergic receptors. t t


c. the sympathetic nervous system.
t t t


d. the cholinergic receptors.t t




ANS: D t


Acetylcholine stimulates the cholinergic receptors. t t t t




PTS: 1 t




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


a. Leukotrienes c. Histamine

, b. IgE d. Prostaglandins
t




ANS: B t


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


degranulation of the mast cell.
t t t t t




PTS: 1 t




6. Which of the following is caused by histamine release from the mast cells?
t t t t t t t t t t t t


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


III. Increased amount of mucus present in the airways t t t t t t t


a. I and II only t c. III only
t t t


b. II and III only t d. I, II, III
t t t t t t




ANS: B t


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



II) increases bronchial gland secretion, causing III) an increase in the amount of mucus present in
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t


the airways. Histamine may also have an effect on vascular permeability similar to the effect of-
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t


SRS-A.
t




PTS: 1 t




7. A sympathomimetic drug would cause
t t t t t


a. bronchodilation. c. Histamine release. t


b. bronchoconstriction. d. Vagus nerve stimulation.
t t t




ANS: A t


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


used to reverse bronchospasm.
t t t t




PTS: 1 t




8. Stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system causes t t t t t t t


a. vascular permeability. c. bronchodilation. t


b. decreased blood pressure. d. bronchoconstriction. t t t




ANS: C t


Sympathetic nervous system stimulation causes bronchodilation. t t t t t




PTS: 1 t




9. Which of the following would NOT cause a bronchospasm or bronchoconstriction?
t t t t t t t t t t


a. Leukotrienes c. Histamine
b. Beta 1 receptors d. Prostaglandins
t t t




ANS: B t


Beta-1 receptors would not cause a bronchospasm or bronchoconstriction. Leukotrienes are one of
t t t t t t t t t t t t


many chemical mediators released by the mast cells. Leukotrienes cause a direct, strong
t t t t t t t t t t t t t


bronchoconstriction. Histamine is also a potent bronchoconstrictor. Prostaglandins cause a strong
t t t t t t t t t t t


bronchospasm, especially in asthmatic patients.
