Adrenaline affects the body in several ways: Heart: Beats faster to supply more glucose and oxygen. Breathing control: Faster and deeper breathing to supply more oxygen and remove more carbon dioxide. Arterioles to skin & digestive system: Constricts them to move more blood towards the muscles. Muscles of the alimentary canal: Relaxes, which slows peristalsis and digestion, allowing for more energy to the muscles. Muscles of the body: Become tense to be ready to respond quickly. Liver: Converts glycogen to glucose to have more available energy in the blood. Fat deposits: Converts fat into fatty acids which allow for muscles contraction.
Adrenalina: Corazón - late más rápido para suministrar más glucosa y oxígeno. Control respiratorio - respiración más rápida y profunda para suministrar más oxígeno y eliminar más dióxido de carbono. Arteriola hacia la piel y el sistema digestivo - se contraen para mover más sangre hacia los músculos. Músculos del tracto alimentario - se relajan, lo que ralentiza la peristalsis y la digestión, permitiendo más energía para los músculos. Músculos del cuerpo - se tensan para estar listos para responder rápidamente. Hígado - convierte el glucógeno en glucosa para tener más energía disponible en la sangre. Depósitos de grasa - convierten la grasa en ácidos grasos que permiten la contracción muscular.
