EEG 200 EXAM QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS 100% PASS



The basic functional unit of the nervous system is the neuron. What is the major function of this
cell type? - ANS to generate and transmit nerve impulses.



Microglia - ANS phagocytosis of debris (dead cells, bacteria, etc.)



Oligodendrocytes - ANS form myelin around axons in the CNS



Astrocytes - ANS support the neurons; may serve nutritive function and help regulate the
chemical environment of the neuron.



Ependymal - ANS Line cavities of the brain ( and spinal chord); aid in circulation of
cerebrospinal fluid.



Schwann Cell - ANS PNS glial cell that forms myelin



Satellite Cell - ANS PNS glial cell that surrounds dorsal root ganglion neurons



Central Nervous system - ANS The brain and Spinal cord collectively.



Neuroglia - ANS Specialized supporting cells in the CNS

Synapse - ANS Junction or point of close contact between neurons



Tract - ANS A bundle of nerve processes in the CNS



Interneuron - ANS Neuron serving as part of the conduction pathway between sensory and
motor neurons



Peripheral Nervous System - ANS Ganglia and spinal and Cranial Nerves



Ganglion - ANS Collection of cell bodies found outside the CNS



Efferent Neuron - ANS Nueron that conducts impulses away from the CNS to muscles and
glands



Afferent Neuron - ANS Neuron that conducts impulses towards the CNS from the body
Periphery



Neurotransmitters - ANS Chemicals released by neurons that stimulate or inhibit other
neurons or effectors



Axon Hillock - ANS region of the cell body from which the axon originates



Axon Terminal - ANS Secretes Neurotransmitters



Dendrite - ANS Receptive region of a neuron
