But this is the whole inforamtion I had copied from my home work, no letter missed.arrow_forwardMost immediate physiological adjustments to exercise occur prior to any change in tissue metabolic demand for oxygen or nutrients. This occurs because exercise increases sympathetic nervous system activity. With your knowledge of exercise and the control of alpha motor neurons by the primary motor cortex of the brain, how does increased exercise influence the sympathetic nervous system?arrow_forwardA smooth, sustained contraction from rapid stimulation of skeletal muscle fibers is called ________.arrow_forward

True Falsearrow_forwardIf a patient was bitten by a poisonous spider (black widow) and the effects of its venom occurred at the neuromuscular junction in the peripheral nervous system, what neurotransmitter would be affected by this venom? And explain the mechanism of action of how the venom is a direct antagonist to this neurotransmitter.arrow_forwardPlace the steps in the propagation of nerve impulses in the correct order.
