Nervous sytem subdivision that is composed of the brain and spinal cord

Peripheral NS

Central NS

Somatic NS

Autonomic NS

Subdivision of the PNS that controls voluntary activities such as the activation of skeletal muscles.

Autonomic NS

Somatic NS

Peripheral NS

Central NS

Nervous system subdivision that is composed of the cranial and spinal nerves and ganglia.

Somatic NS

Central NS

Autonomic NS

Peripheral NS

Subdivision of the PNS that regulates the activity of the heart and smooth muscles and of glands; also called the involuntary nervous system.

Autonomic NS

Central NS

Peripheral NS

Somatic NS

A major subdivision of the nervous system that interprets incoming information and issues outgoing "orders"

Peripheral NS

Central NS

Autonomic NS

Somatic NS

A major subdivision of the nervous system that serves as the communication lines, linking all parts of the body to the CNS.

Peripheral NS

Central NS

Somatic NS

Autonomic NS

Supporting cells found in the CNS are called neuroglia.

True

False

Neurons are mitotic and therefore are responsible for most brain neoplasms (tumors)

True

False

Schwann cells and satellite cells are found only in the PNS.

True

False

Ependymal cells show irritability and conductivity.

True

False

Almost 50% of the mass of the brain is neuroglial cells.

True

False

In the CNS, oligodendrites engulf invading microorganisms and dead neural tissue.

True

False

Ependymal cells line the central cavities of the brain and spinal cord, where they form a fairly permeable barrier between the cerebral spinal fluid and the fluid surrounding the cells of the CNS.

True

False

Oligodendrocytes wrap their cytoplasmic extensions around thick neurons fibers in the CNS.

True

False

The bulb-like ends of the axons of neurons, synapse with capillaries.

True

False

Relative to neuron anatomy, match the descriptors to the appropriate anatomical term.

releases neurotransmitters
conducts localized electrical currents toward the cell body/soma
increases the speed of impulse transmission
location of the nucleus
conducts impulses away from the cell body/soma
most are located and protected within the CNS
short, tapering, "input" branched extensions from the cell body
the neuronal process that is found in a nerve fiber
formed by Schwann cells in the PNS
clusters of ribosomes and rough endoplasmic reticulum
most of these are found in the CNS where they are protected by the bones of the skull and vertebral column.
Nodes of Ranvier are found between these structures

Axon terminal
Cell body
Dendrites
Myelin sheath
Nissl bodies
Axon

Match the following
