Which of the following are effects of stimulating this system? [SATA] A. Increased HR B. Increased Urination C. Increased Lacrimation D. Decreased Digestion E. Pupil Dilation - CORRECT ANSWER B. Increased Urination C. Increased Lacrimation
The parasympathetic nervous system carries several "SLUDD" effects with its activation. These include increased Salivation, Lacrimation, Urination, Diarrhea, and Digestion. The pupils in your eyes will also constrict. The sympathetic nervous system is responsible for your "fight or flight" responses. Stimulation of this system can include decreasing things like digestion (peristalsis) & urination and increasing your HR, BP, and bronchodilation. The pupils in your eyes will also dilate to more easily capture a view of your surroundings. More info can be found on page 44 in your NAPLEX book (2024). ________________ Book
