BMS 300- CSU WALDRON NERVOUS
SYSTEM WHAT EXAM QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS GRADED A+ 2025/2026
3 steps of the nervous system - ANS 1. sensory input
2. integration
3. motor output
Sensory in is PNS or CNS - ANS PNS
What carries information towards the integration structure - ANS Sensory afferents
Integration is in PNS or CNS - ANS CNS, the brain and spinal cord
Motor out is in PNS or CNS - ANS PNS
What carries information away from the CNS - ANS motor efferents
Phineaus Gage - ANS Guy who had rod in his head and still survived. He is an example of a
case study.

, Tell us that brains make who we are
sensory transduction - ANS changing one form of energy to another
sensory transduction (ion level) - ANS movement of ions across biological membranes
What are the 3 forms of energy - ANS Electromagnetic
Mechanical
Chemical
example of electromagnetic energy - ANS Vision
Examples of mechanical energy - ANS touch
hearing/sound
Examples of chemical energy - ANS taste, smell
together comes flavor
Neuron doctorine - ANS the fundamental structural and functional unit of the nervous
system is the neuron
Emillio golgi - ANS Create golgi stain
Emillo's golgi stain - ANS labels only 2% of neurons
BUT labels entire cell
