Nervous Sys
General Knowege
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| System Directs long term Changes in the activities of organs | Endocrine System |
| System Directs Immediate Responses to stimuli by coordinating the activities of organs | Nervous System |
| System includes all neural Tissue | Nervous System |
| Central Nervous system is located in | Spine and Brain |
| Peripheral Nervous system is | All neural tissue outside of the CNS |
| Brings Sensory Information to the CNS | Afferent |
| Carries Motor commands to muscles and glands. | Efferent |
| Monitors skeletal muscles, Joints, Skin | Somatic |
| Monitors Internal tissue, Smooth Muscle, Cardiac Muscle, Glands | Visceral |
| Nervous System- Makes you go Gas Petal | Sympathic |
| Nervous System- Brake Petal Slows you down | Parasythetic |
| These are responsible for information transfers and processing | Neurons |
| Mylenates the CNS | Oligodendrocytes |
| Mylenates the PNS | Schwanns |
| Matter that Mylenates the Axons for faster travel | White Matter |
| Matter that Unmylenates the Axons for slower travel | Gray Matter |
| Specialized site where the Neuron communicates with cell | Synaps |
| Where Neuron contacts another neuron of effector | Synaptic |
| Relese of neurotransmitters | Synaptic Communication |
| These in the spine send out a excitedory signal | Synaps |
| Out number all others by number and type located in the brain and spine | Interneurons |
