NR 304 EXAM 2 CHAMBERLAIN UPDATED
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS FULL
SOLUTION REVIEW MATERIAL
●● peripheral nervous system (PNS)
Answer: everything but brain and spinal cord, 12 cranial nerves
●● cerebral cortex
Answer: 2 hemispheres, 4 lobes per hemisphere
can get approximation or where a stroke happened
●● frontal lobe
Answer: personality, behavior, emotions, intellectual function
●● parietal lobe
Answer: primary center for sensation
●● occipital lobe
Answer: primary visual receptor center (back of head)
●● temporal lobe
,Answer: auditory reception center, taste, smell
●● Wernicke's area
Answer: language comprehension
temporal lobe
receptive aphasia (hear sound, but it has no meaning)
●● Broca's area
Answer: mediates motor speech
frontal lobe
expressive aphasia (comprehends, but only garbled sounds comes out
when try to speak)
●● hypothalamus
Answer: appetite, sex drive, temperature, heart rate, BP, sleep,
anterior/posterior pituitary gland regulation, coordination of autonomic
nervous system (ANS), stress response, emotional status
●● cerebellum
Answer: under occipital lobe
coordination of voluntary movements, equilibrium, muscle tone (does
not initiate movements)
, ●● brainstem
Answer: automatic survival functions
cranial nerve (CN) III-XII originate here
pons (ascending sensory and descending motor tracts)
medulla (continuation of spinal cord in brain; contains all fiber tracts
connecting brain and spinal cord)
●● spinal cord
Answer: mediates reflexes
butterfly shape with posterior/anterior horns
(ugh, the slide in the photo is beautiful<3)
●● upper motor neurons
Answer: located completely within CNS
diseases (cerebrovascular accident, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis,
etc.)
●● lower motor neurons
Answer: final contact with muscles
in anterior gray column of spinal cord
movement must be translated into action by these:
-cranial nerves and spinal nerves of PNS
diseases (spinal cord lesions, poliomyelitis, amytrophic lateral sclerosis)
