List the major subdivisions of the human nervous system.

Central Nervous System, Somatic Nervous System, Automatic Nervous System, and Peripheral Nervous System

What are the 5 major types of glia?

1) Astrocytes 2) Microglia 3)Ependymal cells 4) Olgiodendrocytes 5) Schwann cells

what are the 3 structural classifications of neurons?

1) Multipolar 2) Bipolar 3) (Pseudo)Unipolar

How does depolarization differ from hyperpolarization?

Depolarization: The excess of positive ions outside the plasma membrane decreases the magnitude of the membrane potential is reduced. Hyperpolarization: the movement of the membrane away from zero

What are the three structures that make up a chemical synapse?

1) A synaptic knob 2) A synaptic cleft 3) The plasma membrane of a postsynaptic neuron

Small-molecule transmitters are subdivided into four main chem-ical classes which are:

1) Class I Acetylcholine (ACh) 2)Class II Amines 3) Class III Amino acid 4)Class IV Other small molecules

What are the four principal tropic hormones that are produced and secreted by the basophils of the pars anterior:

1) Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) 2) Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) 3) Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) 4) Luteinizing hormone (LH)

What hormones are produced in the heart?

atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) & atrial natriuretic hormone (ANH)

What is the origin of lymph?

Water and solutes continually filter out of capillary blood into the IF. To balance this outflow, fluid continually reenters blood from the IF

one were to trace the movement of air through the nose into the pharynx, it would be found that air passes through several structures on the way. The sequence is as follows:
