Question

Part J - Applying Your Knowledge of Neurotransmitter and Receptor Relationships Muscarine, a chemical produced by certain mushrooms, binds to muscarinic receptors mimicking the effect of acetylcholine. How do you think administering this chemical would change body function? The drug would _____________. Select all that apply. View Available Hint(s) Select all that apply. change the functionality of skeletal muscles change the functionality of the heart change the functionality of the smooth muscles within the digestive system change the rate at which action potentials are propagated from the preganglionic neurons to the postganglionic neurons of the autonomic nervous system change the functionality of certain exocrine and endocrine glands

Answer 1

-change the functionality of the heart.

-change the functionality of the smooth muscles within the digestive system.

-change the functionality of certain exocrine and endocrine glands.

Step-by-step explanation:

Muscarine is a chemical, found in certain species of mushrooms, which activates peripheral PNS (parasympathetic nervous system) by mimicking acetylcholine.

It majorly affects heart, blood vessels, lungs, eyes, and some glands as parasympathetic nervous system decreases heart rate, while stimulates digestion, urination certain glands, and controls hormonal secretion from glands.

Thus,

-It change the functioning of the heart.

-It changes the functioning of the smooth muscles within the digestive system.

-it changes the functioning of certain glands.
