Four individuals presented to the ER with several signs and symptoms (see table 1). While taking their history, you ask if they'

ve recently ingested anything. At first, they didn't claim anything but then one remembered they went mushroom hunting and added it to a stew. You're truffle hunting skills paid off when you identified the mushroom from their photo of it as Amanita Muscaria, a mushroom containing the neurotoxin muscarine.

Three three signs or symptoms that provided the needed clue to the signs of autonomic nervous system (ANS) are:

  • pupil constriction
  • a rise in salivation
  • increased lisping
  • Diarrhea
  • Sweating \Urination

<h3>What receptor do you think muscarine binds to in the ANS? </h3>

A neurotoxin called muscarine binds to the muscarinic receptors. A subset of cholinergic receptors are muscarinic receptors. The parasympathetic nervous system is stimulated by them.

<h3>What neurotransmitter usually binds to the receptor?</h3>

Muscarinic receptors are occupied by muscarine. They would attach to the parasympathetic nervous system's receptors since they displayed the indicators and signs of parasympathetic activation.

Normally, the neurotransmitter acetylcholine would attach to these receptors. Muscarinic and Nicotinic receptors are the two categories to which acetylcholine binds.

Instead of nicotinic receptor activation symptoms, they had evidence of muscarinic receptor stimulation.

<h3>What is cholinergic and determine why should it be used it in this case?</h3>

Drugs known as cholinergics bind to cholinergic receptors, including nicotinic and muscarinic receptors, and mimic their effects.

Drugs that block cholinergic receptors are known as anticholinergics. Anticholinergic medications are used because they bind to cholinergic receptors and prevent them from activating.

Therefore, the effects of consuming muscarine will be eliminated.

Scenario/Summary

Four individuals presented to the ER with several signs and symptoms (see table 1). While taking their history, you ask if they've recently ingested anything. At first, they didn't claim anything but then one remembered they went mushroom hunting and added it to a stew. You're truffle hunting skills paid off when you identified the mushroom from their photo of it as Amanita Muscaria, a mushroom containing the neurotoxin muscarine.

Deliverables

Review the article above, answer the following questions and save your responses in a Microsoft Word document. Provide a scholarly resource in APA format to support your answers.

Looking at the signs and symptoms, you notice that one of the two branches of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) is highly upregulated. Which one is it? N ame three signs or symptoms that clued you in on it and why.

What receptor do you think muscarine binds to in the ANS? What neurotransmitter usually binds to the receptor?

At first, It seemed odd that three out of four of your patients were sweating. It makes sense now that you know what they ate. Why?

Treatment for this issue includes the use of atropine. Atropine is anticholinergic. Define cholinergic and determine why you would use it in this case.

No, not really because if nothing is near them they cant sense any type of danger. But if something is close they may be afraid but don't sense danger. It basically a spiderman myth.

The gasoline engine where the air and fuel mixture is burned is called the combustion chamber. A piston is used to increase and decrease the volume which prepares the fuel to be mixed with air. A spark plug is ignited then to create the combustion thereafter.

icang [17]

Answer:

A covalent bond forms when the difference between the electronegativities of two atoms is too small for an electron transfer to occur to form ions. Shared electrons located in the space between the two nuclei are called bonding electrons. The bonded pair is the “glue” that holds the atoms together in molecular units.
