Chapter 11 : Autonomic vs. Somatic Nervous System : Control, Reflexes, and Neurotransmitters

Описание: Explore the fundamental differences between autonomic and somatic motor control in this comprehensive Chapter 11 lecture! Designed for students, educators, and healthcare professionals, this video covers:
Efferent Division of the Nervous System: How commands travel from the CNS to muscles and glands
Autonomic Nervous System (ANS): Sympathetic (‘fight-or-flight’) vs. Parasympathetic (‘rest-and-digest’) functions
Homeostasis and Reflexes: Hypothalamic control of autonomic function, spinal reflexes, and endocrine integration
Neurotransmitters and Receptors: Acetylcholine (ACh), norepinephrine (NE), adrenergic, and cholinergic receptors
Adrenal Medulla and Catecholamine Release: Epinephrine secretion and its physiological effects
Somatic Motor System: Voluntary control of skeletal muscles, neuromuscular junctions, and nicotinic receptors
Motor Neuron Function and Synaptic Transmission: The role of action potentials, neurotransmitter release, and synaptic integration
Clinical Applications: Autonomic disorders, neuromuscular diseases, and the pharmacology of neurotransmitters
