Answer to Question 1

A, B, C
Feedback:
Stimulation of nicotinic receptors causes muscle contractions, autonomic responses such as signs and symptoms of a stress reaction, and release of norepinephrine and epinephrine from the adrenal medulla. Urinary incontinence would not be associated with stimulation of the nicotinic receptors and increased bowel activity would result from muscarinic receptors.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Stimulation in humans occurs with mild increases of sensitivity and the climax occurs from massive sympathetic stimulation. Many animals require an estrous cycle to become stimulated, but that is not true of humans. The period of recovery occurs when the sympathetic stimulation is resolved.
