| Two systems that control the body functions by communication with billions of cells in the human body in order to keep it alive: | nervous system and edocrine |
| the autonomic nervous system is divided into two parts; | sympathetic and parasympathetic |
| the______senses or recognizes the external changes in the environment such as cold or heat or internal changes in the body such as a decrease in potassium or calcium. | afferent function |
| the_______process the perceived info about changes and iterprets or explains the changes in the external and internal environ. | integrative function |
| the_______responds to the aforementioned iterpretation and integration of the external and internal environ by making muscles move, group of muscles interact, and glands secrete hormones or other chemicals in the bloodstream. | efferent function |
| ________take info away from the cell body | axons |
| _______bring info to the cell body | dendrites |
| the neurons produce electrochemical hormones | neurotransmitters |
| signals in the neurons transfer info to other neurons by crossing synapse to control: | glands, organs, muscle |
| the action of the impulse that triggers the release of a neurotransmitter to another neuron is | firing of the neurons |
| positively charged sodium ions enter the axon, shifting the charge within the axon from negative to positive: | depolarization of the axon |
| carrying proteins transport the neurotransmitters back to the axon from which they originally came is | reuptake |
| _______contains grey matter made up of the nerve cells | cerebral cortex |
| ________contains white matter made up of myelinated axonsof the neurons | cerebral medulla |
| an extension of the spinal cord is | brain stem |
| _______sits at the top of the brain stem and regulates and evalutes the sensory impulses of pain,hot,cold,and touch. | thalamus |
| _____located below the hypothalamus, regulates respiration and is considered the "relay" station for nerve fibers that travel to other parts of the brain. | pons |
| ________located just below the thalamus controls body function such as water balance,body temp,sleep,hunger,and appetite,sex drive | hypothalamus |
| the_____lobe is related to the stimulis and perception of touch,pressure,temp,and pain. | parietal |
| the_______lobe concerned with higher intellect or reasoning, problem solving,parts of speech and emotion. | frontal |
| the_____lobe is related to stimuli pertaining ot vision. | occipital |
| the_____lobe is related to perception and recognition of auditory stimuli for hearing and memory. | Temporal |
| stacey has to go out to drink with her girls every night | social anxiety disorder |
| first antipsychotic drug that was introduced in the 1950's | chlorpromazine |
| lack of specific neurotransmitter is associated with anxiety. | Gamma-aminobutyric acid |
| low self esteem or a negative outlook can contribute | Pessimistic personality |
| the central nervous system is made up of the: | brain and spinal cord |
| the peripheral nervous system is divided into two parts, the : | autonomic and somatic |
