Tactile Receptors

Front	Back
Eye	Cyclospasm= contraction of muscle for near vision
Heart	Decrease HR and conduction
Arterties and arterioles	Dilation via blood stream, not innervated
Lungs	Contraction of bronchioles and increase in secretions
Stomach, intestines, salivary glands	Increase motility, increase secretions, and relax/open sphincters
Bladder	Contraction of wall and relaxation/opening of sphincter causing urination
Skin	Lack of secretions (increase of secretions is a sympathetic response = sweating)
Liver	Increase in bile secretion (helps with digestion)
