Hey Guys,
we are studying physiology in paramedic school, there is so much to due and I feel like i am falling behind. i have a question about nurotransmiters, i hope you can help.
i think we can all agree that the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervos systems oppose each other. furthermore the types of receptor sites in the sympathetic nervos system are adrenergic, and the receptors in the sympathetic system are cholinergic.
norepi and epi can interact with adrenergic receptors, and ach or nicotine can interact with cholinergic sites.
so how can it be that ach can also be a nurotransmiter in the sympathetic nervos system?
thanks
papa
