If the parasympathetic division was more active than the sympathetic division, the body would experience a decrease in heart rate, pupil dilation, and the release of stress hormones. Overall, the individual would be in a more relaxed state with lower blood pressure and slower breathing.
The sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system is involved in dilation of the pupils in response to startling or pleasurable stimuli. The pathway involves activation of the sympathetic chain ganglia, leading to release of norepinephrine from postganglionic fibers that act on the dilator pupillae muscle in the eye, causing pupil dilation.
Yes, pupil dilation is a common physiological response to arousal. When a person is aroused, the sympathetic nervous system causes the pupils to dilate, allowing more light to enter the eyes and enhancing visual perception.
Yes, cannabis can cause pupil dilation as it alters the function of the sympathetic nervous system, which controls pupil size. This effect is temporary and will typically return to normal once the effects of cannabis wear off.
Before light is shone into the pupil, it is in a state of dilation, allowing more light to enter the eye in dim lighting conditions.
Sympathetic stimulation of the eye will cause dilation of the pupil (mydriasis) and relaxation of the ciliary muscle for far vision.

The pupil reflex is controlled by the autonomic nervous system, specifically the parasympathetic and sympathetic divisions. Constriction of the pupil (miosis) is controlled by the parasympathetic system through the action of the cranial nerve III (oculomotor nerve). Dilation of the pupil (mydriasis) is controlled by the sympathetic system through the action of the superior cervical ganglion.
Horner's is a malfunctioning of the sympathetic innervation to the pupil. Depending on what drug is used to dilate the pupil, and where the malfunction is, it could do.
dilation of the pupil.
Sympathetic stimulations are signals to the body that imply stress. Sympathetic stimulation stimulates the sympathetic part of the peripheral nervous system and results in multiple response such as increased cardiac output, dilation of the pupil, inhibition of the smooth muscles of the gastrointestinal tract and urinary bladder, and erection of the penis.
Yes, pupil dilation is a common physiological response to arousal. When a person is aroused, the sympathetic nervous system causes the pupils to dilate, allowing more light to enter the eyes and enhancing visual perception.
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is divided into the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions. The sympathetic division is responsible for the "fight or flight" response, increasing heart rate and pupil dilation. The parasympathetic division is involved in rest and digest functions, promoting activities like digestion and lowering heart rate.
Activation of the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system during stress can lead to symptoms such as increased heart rate, elevated blood pressure, pupil dilation, dilated airways, increased sweating, and decreased digestion. These physiological responses help prepare the body for the "fight or flight" response to perceived threats.
The visible colored part of the eye that controls pupil dilation is the iris. The iris regulates the size of the pupil in response to light conditions and helps to control the amount of light that enters the eye.
The ciliospinal reflex causes pupil dilation when stimulated. This reflex is activated by pain or irritation on one side of the face or neck, resulting in dilation of the pupil on the same side.
