4. Epinephrine binds to adrenergic receptors in liver, smooth muscle, and cardiac
muscle. In liver epinephrine induces glycogen breakdown, in smooth muscle it
leads to muscle relaxation, and in cardiac muscle it leads to muscle contraction.

in each of these cell types:
a.
b.
c.
d.
each cell type has a different adrenergic receptor
different heterotrimeric G proteins are activated in each cell type
adenylyl cyclase is activated in some cells and inactivated in others.
an enzyme that is activated in all three cell types is capable of catalyzing
glycogen breakdown, smooth muscle relaxation, and cardiac muscle
contraction.
