| What are the subtypes of cholinergic receptors stimulated by ACH |
|
Definition
| The parasympathetic (cholinergic) preganglionic neuron secretes ACh, which stimulates NN receptors in the ganglia. The parasympathetic (cholinergic) postganglionic neuron also secretes ACh, which stimulates M receptors in various organs. |

Term
| sympathetic (adrenergic) post ganglionic neurons that don't secrete norepinephrine (NE) |
|
Definition
Adrenergic postganglionic neurons to sweat glands secrete ACH
(what kind of cholinergic receptors?) M. This type of sympathetic innervation to sweat gland is called: Sympathetic-Cholinergic System |

|
Definition
| Product of dopa; precursor in the autonomic synthesis of NE. Does NOT affect somatic motor system. Found in the adrenergic nerve terminal. |

Definition
Parasympathetic: The preganglionic neuron, synapse, postganglionic neuron.
Sympathetic: The preganglionic neuron, and postganglionic neuron to stimulate M receptors on sweat glands.
*ALL preganglionic neurons secrete ACh |
