What part of the neuron
serves as protective coating
2
Myelin Sheath
3
The process by which a tiny
electrical current is generated
when positive sodium ions
rush inside the axon, causing
the inside of the axon to
change its charge and
preparing it to fire is called
____?
4
Action Potential
5
Which type of neurons
carry information away
from the spinal chord to
produce responses in
various muscles and organs
throughout the body?
6
Efferent Neurons
7
The sympathetic nervous
system ___ physiological
responses, while the
parasympathetic nervous
system ___ physiological
responses.
8
Arouses, Calms
9
This principle/law explains
that action potential starts
at the beginning of the
axon and continues at the
same speed to the very end
of the axon
10
All-or-None
11
This part of the brain is
located between the
medulla and other areas of
the brain and is responsible
for sleep and arousal
12
Pons
13
This part of the brain is
affected during split brain
surgery
14
Corpus Callosum
15
This part of the brain is
responsible for combining
sounds into words and
arranging words into
meaningful sentences?
Hint – think aphasia
16
Broca’s Area
17
The main job of this brain
area is to receive
information and relay it to
the appropriate areas
18
Thalamus
19
Bodily sensations such as
touch, pressure, and
temperature are controlled
by which lobe?
20
Parietal
21
This records electrical
impulses from the brain
22
EEG
23
Wernicke’s area is located
on which lobe of the brain
24
Left Temporal Lobe
25
A “split-brain” patient is asked
to stare at a black dot between
the HE and ART as the word
HEART is displayed on a
screen. When the patient is
asked what they see, what will
they respond with?
26
ART
27
Karla is telling her younger
sister stories about her first
birthday in their new
home. Which part of the
brain is Karla using to
recall these memories?
28
Amygdala
29
If damage occurs in the
occipital lobe, an
individual may not
recognize some objects,
people, or colors. This
damage is called
30
Visual Agnosia
31
Another name for the cell
body of the neuron is
32
Soma
33
These secrete
neurotransmitters across a
synapse
34
Terminal feet/buttons
35
Once a neuron fires, it
cannot immediately fire
again. It is in a state of __?
36
Resting Potential
37
This portion of the neuron
is responsible for keeping
the axon charged by
returning and keeping
sodium ions outside the
axon membrane
38
Sodium Pump
39
Which neurotransmitter
most closely resembles the
affects alcohol has on the
nervous system
40
GABA
41
This process involves
passing nonharmful radio
frequencies through the
brain to study brain
structure
42
MRI
43
This part of the brain
controls eating and
drinking, motivation, and
emotion
44
Hypothalamus
45
This neurotransmitter
stimulates the hypothalamus to
synthesize hormones and
affects alertness and
movement. Lack of this
neurotransmitter is associated
with Parkinson's Disease.
46
Dopamine
47
The hypothalamus,
thalamus, amygdala, and
hippocampus are all part of
what system?
48
Limbic
49
Gunshot wounds, tumors,
and strokes can all result in
these in the brain.
50
Lesions
