Question
Answer
controlled voulntarily(by conscious will), and all its effectors are skeletal muscles   Somatic nervous system  
🗑
in what process does The action potential, K+ channels open to allow K+ to leave the cell.   Repolarization  
🗑
As the electrical charge returns to its resting value, the membrane is undergoing   Repolarization  
🗑
A disease in which the myelin sheath around axons is damaged and the neuron fibers themselves degenerate.   Multiple sclerosis  
🗑
paralysis of all four limbs   tetraplegia  
🗑
CSF forms in four spaces within the brain called   ventricles  
🗑
A vascular network in each ventricle that forms CSF by filtration of the blood and by cellular secretion.   choroid plexus  
🗑
Ventricle extentions inot the lobes of the cerebrum are called   horns  
🗑
These paired ventricles communicate with a midline space, the third ventricle, by means of openings called   interventricular foramina  
🗑
Continuing down from the third ventricle a small canal extends through the midbrain into the fourth ventricle, which is located between the brain stem and the cerebellun   Cerebral aqueduct  
🗑
Occupies the superior part of each hemisphere and lies posterior to the central sulcus.   parietal lobe  
🗑
The gyrus just behind the central sulcus in ths lobe contains the _________ , where impulses from the skin, such as touch, pain, and temperature, are interpreted.   primary sensory area  
🗑
lies posterior to the parietal lobe and extends ovet the cerebellum   occipital lobe  
🗑
The speech muscles in the tongue, the soft palate, and the larynx are controlled her, in a region named the   motor speech area  
🗑
motor speech area is also know as   Broca area  
🗑
What influences the heartbeat, the contraction and relaxation of blood vessels, hormone secretion, and other vital body functions   hypothalamus  
🗑
chronic disorder involving an abnormality of the brain's electrical activity with or without apparent changes in the nervous tissues   epilepsy  
🗑
The rapidly accumulating blood puts pressure on blood vesels and interupts blood flow to the brain is called   epidural hematoma  
🗑
Smell, taste, vision, and hearing located in the head are what kind of impulses   Special sensory impulses  
🗑
impulses such as pain, touch, temperature and vibrations are what kind of impulses   General sensory inpulses  
🗑
Cranial nerve I,II, and VIII contain what kind of fibers   Sensory fibers  
🗑
Cranial nerve III, IV, VI, XI, and XII contain what kind of fibers   motor fibers  
🗑
Cranial nerves V, VII, IX, and X contain what kind of fibers   mixed nerves  
🗑
The ___ carries smell impulses from the receptors in the nasal mucosa to the brain.   olfactory nerve  
🗑
The ___ is concerned with the contraction of most of the eye muscles.   oculomotor nerve  
🗑
Cranial nerve V carries sensory inpulses from eye, upper jaw, and lower jaw toward the brain   trigeminal  
🗑
Cranial nerve VIII caries sensory impulses for hearing and equilibrium from the inner ear towar th brain   vestibulocochlear  
🗑
Cranial nerve XII controls the muscles of the tongue   hypoglossal  
🗑
The ___ or eardrum, is at the end of the external auditory canal.   tympatic membrane  
🗑
in static equilibrium each receptor is called a   macula  
🗑
The receptors for ___ function when the body is spining or moving in different directions.   dynamic equilibrium  
🗑
the receptors located at the base of the semicircular canals are called   cristae  
🗑
These tates are experienced at the tip of the tongue   sweet  
🗑
widespread receptors tha aid in the function by the internal ear's equilibrium receptores   proprioceptors  
🗑
When sensory receptors are exposed to a continuous stimulus receptors often adjust themselves so that the sensation becomes less acute   sensory adaptation  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
