Somatic Nervous System - ANS VOLUNTARY Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) -

SKELETAL MUSCLE

Neurons - ANS Functional cells of the nervous system

Dendrites - ANS Neuron fibers that CONDUCT impulses TO the cell body

Axons - ANS Neuron fibers that CONDUCT impulses AWAY from the cell body

Receptors - ANS RECEIVE a STIMULUS that begins a neural pathway

Myelin - ANS WHITE FATTY substance that covers the axon in a SHEATH,

INSULATES and PROTECTS the axon, SPEEDS nerve impulses

What is the difference between white and gray matter - ANS White matter is

covered in myelin

Sensory neurons - ANS Aka AFFERENT, conduct impulses TO brain and spinal cord

(CNS)

Motor neurons - ANS Aka EFFERENT, conduct impulses FROM brain and spinal

cord (CNS)

Interneurons - ANS Aka CENTRAL/ASSOCIATION, conduct impulses WITHIN the

brain and spinal cord, from place to place

Nerve - ANS Bundle of neuron fibers in the PNS

Tract - ANS Bundle of neuron fibers in the CNS
