Exam 3: BSC2085/ BSC 2085 (Latest 2024/ 2025 Update) Anatomy and Physiology I | Complete Guide | Qs & As| 100% Correct| Grade A (Verified Answers) Q: approximately how many sensory neurons are there in the body? Answer: 10 million Q: Three Functional Classifications of Neurons Answer: 1. Sensory neurons -Afferent neurons of PNS 2. Motor neurons -Efferent neurons of PNS 3. Interneurons -Association neurons Q: Functions of Sensory Neurons Answer: 1. Monitor internal environment (visceral sensory neurons) 2. Monitor effects of external environment (somatic sensory neurons) Q: Structures of Sensory Neurons Answer: 1. Unipolar *(mostly)* 2. Cell bodies grouped in sensory ganglia *a ganglion is a collection of neuron cell bodies in the PNS* 3. Processes (afferent fibers) extend from sensory receptors to CNS Q: Three types of Sensory Receptors Answer: 1. Interocepters 2. Exterocptors 3. Proprioceptors Q: Interoceptors Answer: 1. Monitor internal systems (digestive, respiratory, cardiovascular, urinary, reproductive) 2. Internal senses (taste, deep pressure, pain) Q: Exteroceptors Answer: 1. External senses (touch, temperature, pressure) 2. Distance senses (sight, smell, hearing) Q: Proprioceptors Answer: Monitor position and movement (skeletal muscles and joints) Q: Motor Neurons Answer: 1. Carry instructions from CNS to peripheral effectors 2. Via efferent fibers (axons) 3. Two major efferent systems Q: Two major efferent systems Answer: 1. Somatic Nervous System (SNS) 2. Autonomic(visceral Nervous System (ANS) Q: approximately how many motor neurons are in the body? Answer: 1/2 million (500,000) Q: Somatic Nervous System (SNS) Answer: Includes all somatic motor neurons that innervate skeletal muscles (voluntary) Q: Autonomic (visceral) nervous system (ANS) Answer: 1. Visceral motor neurons innervate all other peripheral effectors (involuntary) -Smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, glands, adipose tissue Q: Interneurons Answer: Most are located in brain, spinal cord, and autonomic ganglia 1. Approx. 20 billion in body 2. Found between sensory and motor neurons Q: Interneurons are responsible for Answer: 1. Distribution of sensory information 2. Coordination of motor activity Q: Interneurons are involved in higher functions Answer: Memory, planning, learning Q: Neuroglia Answer: 1. Half the volume of the nervous system 2. Many types of neuroglia in CNS and PNS Q: four types of neuroglia Answer: 1. Ependymal cells 2. Microglia 3. Oligodendrocytes 4. Astrocytes Q: Ependymal cells Answer: Cells with highly branched processes *lacks basement membrane* Q: Microglia Answer: Smallest and least numerous neuroglia with many fine-branched processes Q: Oligodendrocytes Answer: Smaller cell bodies with fewer processes that wrap around axons of neurons Q: Astrocytes Answer: Large cell bodies with many processes *May divid and differentiate into more neurons, unknown regulatory mechanism* Q: Fuctions of Ependymal cells Answer: 1. Form epithelium called ependyma 2. Line central canal of spinal
