BMS 300 EXAM 2 (PRACTICE EXAM)
QUESTIONS WITH 100% VERIFIED
ANSWERS
\.The cell bodies of primary somatic afferent neurons are located in the: -
ANSWERS✔-Dorsal (posterior) root ganglia
\.We have not yet talked about the sympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous
system. From what you know about the nomenclature, you would expect the cell
bodies of the neurons of the sympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous
system located in the peripheral nervous system to be found in: - ANSWERS✔-
ganglia
\.There are chaperonins that function to ensure the folding of proteins into their
appropriate three dimensional shape during protein synthesis and protein
processing. Antibodies that label these chaperonins would be expected to be
found in which of the following structures? - ANSWERS✔-Nuclei and Ganglia
\.The output regions of somatic efferent neurons that carry action potentials away
from the CNS would be found in: - ANSWERS✔-Voluntary Muscle
\.The spinotectal tract carries information to a region of the midbrain called the
tectum, and is responsible for providing a reflexive orientation to touch. You
, would expect neurons in this tract to have their input regions in the
________________ and their output regions in the ________________________.
- ANSWERS✔-dorsal horn of the spinal cord, tectum of the midbrain
\.Peptide neurotransmitters synthesized on rough endoplasmic reticulum in
ganglion cells in the retina are transported to the thalamus where they are
released. These peptide neurotransmitters are transported in the optic nerve in
________ on ___________ at_________. - ANSWERS✔-vesicles, microtubules,
200 to 400 mm per day
\.During development, each lower motor neurons innervates many muscle fibers,
but shortly after birth the number of muscle cells innervated by each neuron
decreases. Before birth, the size of the motor unit is ________________ and the
strength of contraction from the activation of an individual motor neuron is
________________ than after birth. - ANSWERS✔-larger, weaker
\.In the central nervous system, neurotransmitter is removed from the synaptic
cleft by transmembrane proteins that bind a Na+
ion and a molecule of neurotransmitter in the extracellular space and
simultaneously transport the ion and the neurotransmitter into the cell. You
would expect to find this form of transport on: - ANSWERS✔-Astrocytes
\.Proteins are transported in neurons in either the fast component or in the slow
component. The different rates are a result of: - ANSWERS✔-the proportion of
time that the protein spends in transit.
