The neuron pictured below, is best described as
CORRECT ANSWER: multipolar
true or false, explain why the state is false : Bipolar neurons have a central cell
body with two extensions
CORRECT ANSWER: true
List the phases of an action potential in order
CORRECT ANSWER
1. resting potential
2. depolarization
3.repolarizarion
4.resting condition
true or false , if false explain why the statement is false: the central nervous
system consists of the brain and spinal cord
CORRECT ANSWER
,true
name and describe what is occurring in the neurocell membrane in section 2 of
the diagram. include the charge of the membrane during this phase
CORRECT ANSWER:
deprivation, sodium gates are opened and the sodium floods into the axon
admits the depolarization of the action potential, causing the charge voltage to
go from 0 to +40 mV
This part of a reflex is inside the CNS, made up of one or more synapses.
CORRECT ANSWER
integration center
match the following lobes of the brain with the correct function
CORRECT ANSWER
temporal - contains sensory areas for hearing and smelling
frontal- contain higher levels ex..
pariteal - receives sensory info from body receptors
occipital - interprets visual input

afferent neurons
CORRECT ANSWER: dorsal root ganglion
what is true about the flexor withdrawl reflex
CORRECT ANSWER: A&d (IT DOES NOT INVOLVE INTERNEURONS & THE
EFFECT OF THE REFLEX IS TO CREATE A CO-CONTRACTION OF 2 MUSCLES
Label the nerves (A-C) in the figure below:

describe the function of the parasympathetic nervous system
CORRECT ANSWER:
aka the housekeeper system because it promotes all of the internal responses in
the relaxed state. Parasympathetic stimulation causes the pupil of the eye to get
smaller and aids the lenses of the eyes to focus on close items. it helps with the
digestion of food and also helps with the beating of the heart and slowing it
which of the following visual conditions is caused by damage to the abducens
nerve?
CORRECT ANSWER:
diplopia
what is the purpose of the blood brain barrier? describe its maintenance from a
cellular level
CORRECT ANSWER:
it is a diffusion barrier that helps in the prevention of unneeded materials that
attack the CNS by keeping the brain and spinal cord away from the general
blood bank.It is composed of the gilal cells astrocytes and its pertinent for
regulation to be able to keep a homestatis which aids in protecting the neurons
a pt is unable to extend his left wrist or fingers. what never is most likely
damaged ?
CORRECT ANSWER:
radial nerve
explain the main steps in the process of hearing
CORRECT ANSWER:
1.) sound waves are funneled through the external auditory Canal which causes
the eardrum to vibrate
, 2. the vibrations go into the ossicles and push against the fluids inside the
cochlear duct. the movement of the fluid causes the stereocilla in the organ of
court to move as well.the neurons are stimulated to send impulses through the
cochlear nerve to the primary auditory cortex of the temp lobe
which cell serves as stem cells in the gustatory system that divide and
differentiate into new supporting cells then form new gustatory cells
CORRECT ANSWER:
basal cells
fill in the blanks: the two upper receiving chambers of the heartier called the ___,
while the two lower pumping chambers are called the
CORRECT ANSWER:
ratio , ventricles
which of the following is not a type of granulocyte
CORRECT ANSWER:
b-cells
describe how memories are stored and retrieved in the brain. include a specific
brain region.
CORRECT ANSWER:
the amygala and the involvement of the limbic system explains why emotionally
charged events and occurrences cause our most vivid memories. the limbic
system communicates with all the sensory areas and is responsible for the
ability of a sensory stimulus to create a complex memory
a pt had a CVA in the area indicated by the red x in the figure, below. What type
of blindness is the pt most likely to incur
CORRECT ANSWER:
bilateral left field blindness because the injury or the damage occurs in the right
optic tract
