To determine: The only autonomic innervation found in themost of the arterioles.
Introduction: Arteries play an important role in transferring oxygenated blood from the heart to the various parts of the body. The arteries are divided into further narrow vessels called arterioles that carry oxygenated blood.
To determine: The primary adrenergic receptors that are influenced by these nerves.
Introduction: The adrenergic receptors are one of the main types of receptors that are found in the autonomic nervous system. Generally, the natural biochemicals that are present in the body act upon these receptors.
