Test 01 - Introduction Receptor cells use chemical transmitters to communicate with relay cells or afferent nerve fibers. In all sensory systems‚ accessory structures modify‚ in some way‚ the stimulus going to the receptor surface. Receptors are electrically polarized cells and therefore have a resting membrane potential. Stimuli produce‚ in the appropriate receptors‚ a change in the electrical properties that is known as the receptor or generator potential. The two ways in which sensory stimuli

The reticulospinal tract is responsible for postural control and autonomic function like initiation of locomotion via innervation of motor neurons into the trunk and proximal limb flexors and extensors.1‚ 2 The reticulospinal tract has two divisions‚ the medial (pontine) tract and the lateral (medullary) tract.

neurons. Nerves that rely on Ach are classified as cholinergic nerves. Acetylcholine is found in both the peripheral nervous system and the central nervous system. Acetylcholine can also be found in the autonomic nervous system and is the only neurotransmitter used in motor division of the somatic nervous system. In the peripheral nervous system acetylcholine plays a role in skeletal muscle movement‚ as well as in the regulation of smooth muscle and cardiac muscle. In the central nervous system
