ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY GUARANTEE ACTUAL TEST PAPER WITH
COMPLETE ANSWERS
✔✔Sensory neurons - ✔✔Receive information from the organs and send it to the
interneurons.
✔✔Interneurons - ✔✔Make decisions and sends that signal to motor neurons. Found in
the spinal cord and brain. They connect the sensory and motor neurons.
✔✔Motor neurons - ✔✔Receive signals from the interneurons and send them to
muscles and glands.
✔✔Nerve - ✔✔Bundle of neurons.
✔✔Dendrites - ✔✔Part of a neuron that receive signals from other neurons.
✔✔Axon - ✔✔Transmit the signal to the axon terminals.
✔✔Myelin Sheath - ✔✔A lipid that insulates the axon and speeds up the transmission of
a nerve impulse.
✔✔Axon Terminal - ✔✔Sends the signal to other neurons.
✔✔Cell Body (Neuron) - ✔✔Contains the nucleus and other cell organelles.
✔✔Central Nervous System (CNS) - ✔✔Consists of the brain and spinal cord. It makes
decisions.
✔✔Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) - ✔✔Consists of nervous tissue outside the
central nervous system.
✔✔Neurons - ✔✔The structural and functional units of the nervous system.
✔✔Nerve impulse - ✔✔Electrical signals.
✔✔Reflex arc - ✔✔The signal only goes to the spinal cord, not the brain.
✔✔Nose - ✔✔Inhales and exhales. Moistens air and filters dust and particles from the
inhaled air.
✔✔Pharynx - ✔✔Tube that connects the mouth with the lungs and digestive tract.
Passageway for both air and food.
✔✔Larynx - ✔✔Voice box - contains the vocal chords needed to make sound.
