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>
  • "These hormones are released at the neuromuscular junction of the cardiac nerves."
  • "They shorten the repolarization period."
  • This speeds up the rate of depolarization and contraction and thus the heart rate is increased.

using the gas pedal analogy explain the impact on the cell cycle of a proto-oncogene versus an oncogene
rusak2 [61]

Using the gas pedal analogy, the proto-oncogene would be an accelerator since they promote cell division and deregulate apoptosis, while tumor suppressor would be the brakes since they constrain the progress of the cell cycle and induce cell apoptosis. An oncogene is, therefore, when the accelerator is stuck in down position and the brakes are not working.
