VERIFIED SOLUTIONS
◉ Myelin Sheath. Answer: a multilayered lipid and protein covering
around some axons that insulates them and increases the speed of nerve
impulse conduction
◉ Cytoplasm. Answer:
◉ Axon. Answer: Propagates nerve impulses toward another neuron, a
muscle fiber, or a gland cell; Long, thin, cylindrical projection
◉ Dendrites. Answer: The receiving or input portions of a neuron; "little
trees".
◉ Cell Body. Answer: Contains a nucleus surrounded by cytoplasm that
includes typical cellular organelles such as lysosomes, mitochondria,
and a Golgi complex.
*AKA perikaryon or soma
, ◉ Axon Hillock. Answer: "Neck", Cone shaped elevation that connects
soma to axon
◉ Nucleus. Answer:
◉ Nissl Bodies. Answer: Free ribosomes and prominent clusters of
rough endoplasmic reticulum
◉ Central Nervous System (CNS). Answer: Consists of the brain and
spinal chord
◉ Peripheral Nervous System (PNS). Answer: Consists of all nervous
tissue outside the CNS
◉ Somatic Nervous System. Answer: Type of PNS that is voluntary
◉ Autonomic Nervous System. Answer: Type of PNS that is involuntary
◉ Sympathetic Division. Answer: the motor part of the ANS which is
responsible for "fight-or-flight" body responses
◉ Parasympathetic Division. Answer: the motor part of the ANS which
is responsible for "rest-and-digest" activities
