caused damage to the?
limbic system

that the stroke damage is in the area of the ________ lobe.
left frontal
right temporal

All sympathetic and parasympathetic preganglionic neurons release acetylcholine from their
axon terminals. (True or False?) - ANSTrue
Except for the fourth ventricle, all of the brain's ventricles are paired. (Is it true or not?) -
ANSFalse An image of a cross section of the spinal cord would show anterior (or ventral)
horns. What is in that region?
Cell bodies of motor neurons
White matter
, Spinal nerves
Ascending tracts- ANSCell bodies of motor neurons
An unlearned and involuntary but predictable motor response to a stimulus that is rapid and
does not involve any processing by the brain:
Learned Reflex
Cranial Reflex
Spinal Reflex
Autonomic Reflex- ANSSpinal Reflex
Damage to the posterior root of the thoracic spinal nerve would result in loss of motor
function to the intercostal space muscles controlled by that nerve. (True or False?) -
ANSFalse
Describe the pathway of Cerebral Spinal Fluid - ANSCSF begins in the choroid plexuses
and curculates into the lateral ventricles, then the third and fourth ventricles. It is then
reabsorbed through the saggital sinus by the arachnoid villi.
Despite being a cranial nerve, the ____________ conveys parasympathetic information to
the body's structures that are responsible for digestion, defecation, and diuresis.
Trigeminal nerve
Phrenic Nerve
Vagus Nerve
Hypoglossal Nerve - ANSVagus Nerve
Explain the steps of an Arc Reflex - ANS1. The receptor/signal is received
2. The Sensory neuron sends the signal to the CNS
3. The integrating system receives the signal and the interneuron carries information to
CNS
4. The motor neurons are then signaled
5. The Effector (where the action occurs) Fred's girlfriend has a habit of rolling her eyes
each time he says a joke. Fred jokes that her optic nerves are overworked. Is this a true or
false statement? - ANSFalse
