Question
Answer
show Body's primary communication & control system. Other control system is the Endocrine system.  
🗑
show Brain, Spinal cord  
🗑
Structural Organization of the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)   show
🗑
show Sensory (Afferent) Division and Motor (Efferent) Division. SAME DAVE.  
🗑
Sensory (Afferent) Division   show
🗑
show Transmit information FROM CNS TO MUSCLE OR GLAND. Divided into somatic and autonomic motor.  
🗑
Somatic Sensory   show
🗑
Visceral Sensory   show
🗑
Somatic Motor   show
🗑
Autonomic motor   show
🗑
show Neurons: Excitable cells that transmit nerve impulses. Glial cells: Non-excitable cells that support and protect the neurons. Nerve glue.  
🗑
Neuron Characteristics   show
🗑
show May form in the meninges (meningiomas) or glial cells (gliomas). Neurons incapable of becoming tumors-can't divide. These tumors originate w/i the brain. Brain tissue is the source.  
🗑
show Forms in another site but spreads to the brain (lung, skin, or breast cancers).  
🗑
Neuron anatomy   show
🗑
Dendrites   show
🗑
Cell Body   show
🗑
Axons   show
🗑
Structural Neuron Classification   show
🗑
Functional Neuron Classification   show
🗑
show Astrocyte, Ependymal cell, Microglial cell, Oligodendrocyte  
🗑
show CNS. Star cell. Control ionic environment. Helps form blood-brain barrier. Babysits neuron. Intermediate between blood and neuron.  
🗑
Ependymal cell   show
🗑
show Macrophages of CNS. Immune cell.  
🗑
show Forms myelin sheaths in CNS on more than one neuron. One cell myelinates multiple axons. Extensions create myelin sheath.  
🗑
show Satellite cell, Neurolemmocyte.  
🗑
show Dorsal root ganglia of PNS. Protects and regulates nutrients for cell bodies in ganglia. Protects and provides nutrients for soma.  
🗑
Neurolemmocyte   show
🗑
Myelin Sheath   show
🗑
show Neurons traveling together. A cable-like bundle of parallel axons.  
🗑
Three connective tissue wrappings of nerves   show
🗑
show Site at which neurons communicate with other neurons, glands, or muscles.  
🗑
show Preynaptic neuron (Neuron before synapse). Synaptic vesicles contain neurotransmitters. Synaptic cleft (space in between). Postsynaptic neuron (Whatever connected to on other side). Label!!  
🗑
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis   show
🗑
Multiple Sclerosis   show
🗑
show Disorder at the cranial end of the neural tube. Substantial or complete absence of a brain-only brain stem forms. Infants rarely live longer than a few hours following birth. Usually detected w/ prenatal ultrasound. Most miscarry.  
🗑
Spina Bifida   show
🗑


   

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.
