Eliciting (Generating) a Nerve Impulse 1. Why don’t the terms depolarization and action potential mean the same thing? Depolarization has to do with surfaces becoming more negative or positive and reaches a certain point called a threshold. When the threshold is reached‚ an action potential is initiated. 2. What was the threshold voltage in Activity 1? The threshold voltage in Activity 1 was 3.0. 3. What was the effect of increasing the voltage? How does this change correlate to changes

which identifies the probable outcome of the trouble (Lightman‚ S. 2008). Amygdala is a part of the limbic system or called key emotional centre of the brain (Tortora and Derrickson 2009)‚ It is also called the nuclei of the hypothalamus which is the critical part of the brain that coordinate an activities in response of stress. The amygdala triggers hypothalamus to bring messages through sympathetic centers in the spinal cord which then get to the middle of the adrenal gland called adrenal medulla‚ and

Stress can take a toll on a person’s body. The cerebral cortex is responsible for labeling an event threatening or harmful. The hypothalamus gets information from the cerebral cortex to initiate the flight or fight response also known as sympathetic nervous system arousal. This arousal stimulates the medulla of the adrenal glands which then secrets epinephrine and norepinephrine (Taylor‚ 2012).

Diagnosis Pheochromocytoma QUESTIONS: 1. What is the relationship between the adrenal medulla to the autonomic nervous system? The adrenal medulla is part of the adrenal gland. It is located at the center of the gland surrounded by the cortex. The adrenal medulla consists of irregularly shaped cells grouped around blood vessels. These cells are intimately connected with the sympathetic division of the ANS. The adrenal medulla is composed mainly of hormone producing chromaffin cells and release
