2. Classify the different structures identified previously into two groups in the
table below.2 pts
Parasympathetic system sympathetic system
B- In a mammal, blood pressure measurements are taken. This pressure
arterial is measured in a subject and then we apply stimulations to the N3 nerve. The results
are included in document 1.
We repeat the same experiment but by applying the stimulations to the N4 nerve. The results
are included in document 2.
