Anatomy and Physiology of the Nervous System and Autonomic Nervous Response, Quizzes of Pharmacology

Definitions and functions of various terms related to the central and peripheral nervous systems, including the brain, spinal cord, somatic and autonomic nervous systems, and their effects on different organs such as the eye, heart, arteries, veins, lung, stomach, intestines, skin, salivary glands, adrenal medulla, uterus, kidney, liver/gall bladder, pancreas, and adipocytes. It also explains the role of adrenergic and muscarinic receptors in mediating sympathetic and parasympathetic responses.
