| What is the anatomical path of travel a nerve impulse takes through a neuron? | Dendrites, Cell body, Axon hillock, axon (covered my myelin sheath, node of ranvier is the gap between the myelin sheath), telodendria, synaptic knobs. |
| Sensory information is carried into the spinal cord by what? Away from? | Dorsal nerve root(posterior nerve root) carry sensory information toward the spinal cord. Ventral nerve root(anterior nerve root) carries information out of or away from the spinal cord. |

| What are the 12 cranial nerves? | 1. Olfactory 2. Optic 3. Oculomotor 4. Trochlear 5. Trigeminal 6. Abducens 7. Facial 8. Vestibulocochlear 9. Glossopharyngeal 10. Vagus 11. Accessory 12. Hypoglossal |
| What are the primary neurotransmitters of the autonomic nervous system and what receptors do they bind to? | Epinephrine & norepinephrine- binds to adrenergic receptors (alpha & beta), stimulates sympathetic nervous system acetylcholine- binds to cholinergic receptors (muscarinic & nicotinic), stimulates parasympathetic nervous system |
| Name four tropic hormones. | Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH)-growth of thyroid Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)- growth of adrenal gland Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)- stimulates structures within ovaries Luteinizing hormone (LH)- stimulates corpius leuteum of the ovary. |
| Where are the tropic hormones produced and what do they do overall? | Produced and secreted by basophils of the pars anterior. Tropic hormones stimulate other endocrine glands. |
