100
What is in charge of stimulating all movement through ought the body
CNS
100
What is the cell body of a neuron also referred as?
Soma
100
What is the name of the cell that has only one process emerging from it
Unipolar
100
What is the name of the sensory receptor found on the akin of the fingers or toes.
Thermoreceptor
200
Voltage gated channels open up when the transmembrane does what
Changes
200
The Central Nervous System communicates with the brain and
Spinal Cord
200
What is the fiber that connects a neuron with it's target
Axon
200
What is the name of the cell that is found in the olfactory epithelium
Bipolar
200
The amount of change that is dependent on the stimulus is called
Graded potential
400
sodium cation entering a cell wall causing the cell to be less negative is called
Depolarization
300
What is in charge of perception and processing of sensory stimuli
Brain
300
What is the process that branches off of Soma?\
Dendrite
300
What is the name of the neuron that is not unipolar or bipolar
Multipolar
300
the voltage at which a neuromuscular signal is generated at a neuromuscular junction is called
threshold
600
AS k+ starts to leave the cell, taking a positive charge with it, the membrane potential beings to move back towards its resting voltage. what is this called
Repolarization
400
What is in charge all nerves
PNS
400
What is the lipid rich substance that axons are insulated by called
Myelin
400
Unipolar cells have one process that includes both the axon and the
Dendrite
400
What is the part of the CNS that acts as a relay for sensory information
Thalamus
800
What is generally a rule for electrical wires and plumbing, just as it is true fro axons
resistance
500
What is the structures if the PNS referred to as
Ganglia
500
What is a variety of cells that provide framework for of tissue that supports the neurons and their activities?
Glial Cell
500
What is the name of the multipolar cell that has a cell body shaped like a pyramid
pyramidal cell
500
What is the region of the cortex specialized for sending signals down to the spinal cord for movement known as
The upper motor neuron
with the ions distributed across the membrane, the difference is measured at -70 mV, the value will be described as
Resting Membrane potential
