3 Questions
What is the primary effect of sympathetic stimulation on blood vessels?
Vasoconstriction via alpha adrenergic receptors
What is the subsequent effect of sympathetic stimulation on blood vessels after vasoconstriction?
Vasodilation due to beta receptors effect
What contributes to the subsequent vasodilatation after sympathetic stimulation?
Accumulation of metabolites
Test your knowledge about the primary effects of the sympathetic nervous system, including vasoconstriction mediated via alpha adrenergic receptors, followed by vasodilatation due to beta receptors effect, and the accumulation of metabolites.
