During a serious allergic response, referred to as anaphylaxis, massive quantities of histamine are released, which causes a profound vasodilation that leads to large quantities of fluid filling the mucous membranes of the sinuses to close them, and leading to pronounced bronchoconstriction, reducing the ability to breathe. If unchecked this can lead to death. The emergency treatment for anaphylactic reactions is adrenaline, which will cause vasoconstriction in the mucous membranes and bronchodilation. What type of antagonist/antagonism does this represent? Select...
