Vasodilation leads to - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

what do adrenergic agonists do? Ans- they stimulate the sympathetic nervous system what is the sympathetic nervous system? Ans- fight or flight response, decrease in digestion and excretion what are the 4 main adrenergic receptors? Ans- Alpha 1, Alpha 2, Beta 1, Beta 2 Alpha 1 Ans- blood vessels, peripheral resistance and blood return to the heart, improved circulation and bp alpha 2 Ans- inhibit release of norepinephrine, decrease in vasoconstriction which leads to vasodilation a
