Question
Chapter 16.4, Problem 29AYP
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The location, types, and subtypes of the adrenergic receptors.
Introduction:
Based on the receptor that the neurotransmitter binds to, it can be classified as a cholinergic or adrenergic receptor. The receptors to which the acetylcholine binds to are known as the cholinergic receptors. Whereas, the receptors to which the norepinephrine binds to are called the adrenergic receptors.
