<h3>Which catecholamines are released by the sympathetic nervous system?</h3>

Epinephrine and norepinephrine are the catecholamines that are released by the sympathetic nervous system to increase the heart rate.

<h3>Where are these hormones released?</h3>

These hormones are released in the blood.

<h3>How does this hormone increase the heart rate?</h3>
