🗑
Vagus cranial nerve   longest cranial nerve. Involved in movement of the digestive tract.

🗑
A fall or improper administration of an injection to the buttocks may injure a nerve of this plexus   Sacral plexus  
🗑
The phrenic nerve branches from this plexus   Cervical plexus  
🗑
Projection level of motor control   Includes cortical and brain stem motor areas. intermediate relay for incoming and outgoing neurons  
🗑
Precommand level of motor control   The cerebellum and basal nuclei. controls the outputs of the cortex and regulates motor activity.  
🗑
Segmental level of motor control   Central pattern generators. The neural machinery of the spinal cord, including spinal cord circuits.  
🗑
The only cranial nerve to extend beyond the head and neck region   The vagus nerves  
🗑
A reflex that causes muscle relaxation and lengthening in response to muscle tension   Golgi tendon reflex  
🗑
The patellar knee jerk is an example of   Stretch reflex  
🗑
nerve branches of trigeminal nerve   mandibular, ophthalmic, and maxillary  
🗑
nerves that arise from the brachial plexus   ulnar, radial, median  
🗑
The lowest level of the CNS   central pattern generators CPGs  
🗑
The three primary levels of neural integration in a somatosensory system   receptor level, circuit level, perceptual level  
🗑
The posterior side of the thigh, leg, and foot is served by   the tibial nerve  
🗑
In order, starting at the spinal cord, the subdivisions of the brachial plexus   Roots, trunks, divisions, and cords  
🗑
The cranial nerve with a dual origin of brain and spinal cord   Accessory nerve  
🗑
Major nerves of the lumbar plexus   femoral and obturator  
🗑
Spinal nerves exiting the cord from the level L4 to S4 form the   Sacral plexus  
🗑
The abducens nerve   supplies innervation to the lateral rectus muscle of the eye

Inborn or intristic reflexes   are involuntary, yet may be modified by learned behavior  
🗑
number of pairs of thoracic spinal nerves   12  
🗑
Pressure, pain, and temperature receptors in the skin   exteroceptors  
🗑
Potentially damaging stimuli that result in pain are selectively detected by   nociceptors  
🗑
Meissner's corpuscles   are mechanoreceptors  
🗑
Nociceptors   are receptors that adapt most slowly  
🗑
The trochlear nerve conveys proprioceptor impulses from   the superior rectus muscle to the brain  
🗑
Nerves that carry impulses toward the CNS only   Afferent nerves  
🗑
After axonal injury, regeneration in peripheral nerves is guided by   Schwann cells  
🗑
Regeneration within the CNS   is prevented due to growth-inhibiting proteins of oligodendrocytes  
🗑
crossed extensor reflex   if the right arm were grabbed it would flex and the left arm would extend  
🗑
