SLP Praxis Review exam 2023 with 100% correct answers

Speech-Language Pathology Praxis Review This study set was adapted from the user Anetz's practice set. She stated the following: "This study set has at least 500 cards gleaned from as many SLP Praxis sets available on Quizlet as of August 2016. Then I added more as I studied various practice Praxis tests. Feel free to import this set into your own account so you can change personalize it. This comes with no guarantees that it is 100% accurate! Check everything, and good luck! Btw, I did pass the praxis." As I have been studying, I have been confirming the information and insuring all information from the Advanced Review of Speech-Language Pathology Fourth Edition has been included. Subject areas that have been confirmed will include a "confirmed" in the subject heading. NEUROANATOMY AND NEUROPHYSIOLOGY: THE NERVOUS SYSTEM (pg. 25-56) NEUROANATOMY AND NEUROPHYSIOLOGY: THE NERVOUS SYSTEM- confirmed Efferent/afferent neurons transmit info away from brain (motor)/bring info to brain (sensory) Nerve cells endings Dendrites - receive signals Axons - send signal on Microglia Scavengers to remove dead cells and other waste in brain Autonomic nervous system Components: Sympathetic nervous system Parasympathetic nervous system Sympathetic nervous system Activates fight or flight response Parasympathetic nervous system Returns body to state of relaxation Pyramidal system vs Extrapyramidal P: direct motor activation pathway, voluntary movement, directly signals nerve cells in spine or brainstem (fast, skilled, conscious movements) E: maintains posture and tone for voluntary movements, indirectly regulates LMN movement activity (slow, postural, reflexive movements) Damage results in involuntary and bizarre movement disorders; indirectly regulates nerve cells in spine or brainstem Both are motor pathways. E is called that to distinguish it from the pyramidal system that reaches target locations by traveling through the 'pyramids' of the medulla. Extrapyramidal composition Subcortical nuclei: red nucleus, substantia nigra, subthalamus, basal ganglia, and their pathways Pyramidal system componenets Projection fibers from cortex divide into: Corticobulbar tract Corticospinal tract
