ASSESSMENT 1 - Drag and drop activity

This activity is for you to understand the neural regulation during sympathetic and parasympathetic stimulation in the heart.

Instruction:

Drag the mechanisms/substances involved in sympathetic and parasympathetic simulation in the heart into the correct box.

Sympathetic Stimulation

  • Noradrenaline
  • Increased Resting Membrane Potential (-50 mV)
  • Increased Heart Rate
  • Reduced Repolarisation
  • Involvement of B1 Receptors
  • Faster and Stronger Cardiac Contraction
  •  
  •  

Parasympathetic Stimulation

  • Acetylcholine
  • Reduced Resting Membrane Potential (-70 mV)
  • Reduced Heart Rate
  • Slower Depolarisation
  • Slower and Weak Cardiac Contraction
  •  
  •  
  • Noradrenaline
  • Increased Resting Membrane Potential (-50 mV)
  • Increased Heart Rate
  • Reduced Repolarisation
  • Involvement of B1 Receptors
  • Faster and Stronger Cardiac Contraction
  • Acetylcholine
  • Reduced Resting Membrane Potential (-70 mV)
  • Reduced Heart Rate
  • Slower Depolarisation
  • Slower and Weak Cardiac Contraction
