BMS 300 EXAM 2 - CSU QUESTIONS
COMPLETE WITH 100% CORRECT
ANSWERS
\.sensory input - ANSWERS✔-Information gathered by sensory receptors about
internal and external changes (stimulus)
\.Integration - ANSWERS✔-To process and interpret sensory input and decide if
action is needed
\.motor output - ANSWERS✔-a response to integrated stimuli; the response
activates muscles or glands
\.Central Nervous System (CNS) - ANSWERS✔-brain and spinal cord (command
center)
\.Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) - ANSWERS✔-the sensory and motor neurons
that connect the central nervous system (CNS) to the rest of the body.
\.afferent - ANSWERS✔-sensory
, \.efferent - ANSWERS✔-motor
\.Somatic Nervous System (SNS) - ANSWERS✔-the part of the peripheral nervous
system that controls voluntary movement of skeletal muscles
\.Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) - ANSWERS✔-the part of the peripheral
nervous system that controls the glands and the muscles of the internal organs
(such as the heart). Its sympathetic division arouses; its parasympathetic division
calms.
\.Neurons - ANSWERS✔-a nerve cell; the basic building block of the nervous
system
\.glial cells - ANSWERS✔-cells in the nervous system that support, nourish, and
protect neurons
\.input region - ANSWERS✔-1 of 3 major regions of a neuron where sensory
signals are transducted or synaptic signals are generated, also referred to as the
dendrites or cell body and plays a minor role in protein synthesis (lack of V-gated
channels; has K+ leak channels)
\.conductile region - ANSWERS✔-1 of 3 major regions of a neuron where all or
nothing action potentials are propagated, also referred to as an axon. Often
myelinated by oligodendrocytes or schwann cells. (Have V-gated channels, K+ leak
channels)
