78) The effects of Ach last longer than those of NE. a) True b) False

?

86) Severing branches of the vagus nerve (X) affects gastric secretion. Explain how this procedure would help control stomach ulcers?

Answer Stress-induced stomach ulcers are due to excessive sympathetic stimulation. The sympathetic division causes vasoconstriction of blood vessels that supply the digestive organs, reducing blood flow to the stomach. The reduction in blood flow slows mucus production and reduces mucosal defenses against stomach acids.

85) How does the result of alpha-receptor stimulation differ from that of beta-receptor stimulation? Answer The stimulation of alpha receptors activates enzymes on the inside of the cell membrane; the stimulation of beta receptors in organs and tissues triggers changes in the metabolic activity of the target cell. Beta-receptor stimulation results in the formation of a second messenger that activates or deactivates key enzymes.

Answer The stimulation of alpha receptors activates enzymes on the inside of the cell membrane; the stimulation of beta receptors in organs and tissues triggers changes in the metabolic activity of the target cell. Beta-receptor stimulation results in the formation of a second messenger that activates or deactivates key enzymes.

84) In some severe cases, a person suffering from stomach ulcers may have surgery to cut the branches of the vagus nerve that innervates the stomach. Explain the neurophysiological effects pertaining to gastric secretion and digestive function that would result from severing the vagus nerve.

Answer The vagus nerve carries motor neurons of the parasympathetic nervous system. These motor neurons control gastric secretions, notably the secretion of acid and enzymes. Severing these branches would eliminate neural stimulation from the central nervous system, thus eliminating the release of gastric fluids in response to anxiety and other higher-order stimuli when there is no food in the stomach. Normal digestive function would still occur, governed by various hormones and intramural neural reflexes.

87) Mr. Martin is suffering from a condition known as ventricular tachycardia, in which his heart beats too quickly. Would an alpha-blocker or a beta-blocker help alleviate his problem? Why?

Answer You would want to use a beta-blocker, because the stimulation of beta-1 receptors increases heart rate. By blocking these receptors, parasympathetic influence will predominate and the heart rate will slow down.
