A student ask the pharmacology instructor to describe the function of cholinergic agonist. What would be the instructor's reply?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: It increases the activity of acetylcholine receptor site. Cholinergic agonists are drugs that mimic the action of acetylcholine, the neurotransmitter responsible for activating cholinergic receptors. By increasing the activity of acetylcholine receptor sites, cholinergic agonists enhance cholinergic neurotransmission.
Choice A is incorrect because cholinergic agonists do not affect norepinephrine receptor sites.
Choice C is incorrect because cholinergic agonists do not target GABA receptor sites.
Choice D is incorrect because cholinergic agonists do not influence dopamine receptor sites.
