Activity Done on a Regular Basis

Unit 4 Assignment
Name:
Please respond to each of the following:
Describe an activity that you do on a regular basis in your life.
Activities of daily living (ADLs) are basic self-care processes. I begin my day by urinating first thing in the morning. This activity of daily living eliminates waste and toxins.Activities of daily living (ADLs) are basic self-care processes. I begin my day by urinating first thing in the morning.

Consider the different parts of the brain. Describe what areas might be directly involved with your chosen activity.
The brainstem and cortex area of the brain coordinate to ensure urination at an appropriate time. The pontine micturition center (PMC) in the brainstem receives signals, coordinates other areas, and regulates the emptying of the bladder by sending signals for urination (Malykhina, 2017). Conversely, the locus coeruleus neurons enhance the urination process by diverting attention toward the bladder and increasing urination arousal, while the medial prefrontal cortex receives signals to control urination continence.The brainstem and cortex area of the brain coordinate to ensure urination at an appropriate time.

Define the concept of neurotransmitters.
Neurotransmitters are chemicals that send messages in the body by allowing neurons to send signals to one another. The human body cannot function without neurotransmitters (Sheffler et al., 2019).Neurotransmitters are chemicals that send messages in the body by allowing neurons to send signals to one another. The human body cannot function without neurotransmitters (Sheffler et al., 2019).
Relate the concept of neurotransmitters to your activity.
Since neurotransmitters send messages in the body, they impact several processes involved in urination. These include osmoregulation, bowel control and bowel motility (Sheffler et al., 2019).Since neurotransmitters send messages in the body, they impact several processes involved in urination.

Identify which neurotransmitters could be involved. Explain your reasoning.
