Question

Match the medications in these classifications to their mechanisms of action. Stimulate adrenergic receptors to enhance fight or flight response Block Adrenergic receptors to suppress fight or flight response Stimulate acetylcholine receptors to enhance rest digest response Block Acetylcholine receptors to suppress rest digest response A. Adrenergic B. Anticholinergic C. Adrenergic blockers D. Cholinergic

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Adrenergic - Stimulate adrenergic receptors to enhance fight or flight response

B. Anticholinergic - Block Acetylcholine receptors to suppress rest digest response

C. Adrenergic blockers - Block Adrenergic receptors to suppress fight or flight response

D. Cholinergic - Stimulate acetylcholine receptors to enhance rest digest response

Explanation:

A. Adrenergic : stimulates a fight or flight response from the adrenergic receptors.

B. Anticholinergic : blocks the action of acetylcholine at the synapses in the central and peripheral nervous system, to suppress the rest digest response.  

C. Adrenergic blockers : inhibits the function of fight or flight response of the adrenergic receptors.

D. Cholinergic : compounds which mimic the action of acetylcholine, enhances the rest digest response.
