General Functions of Central Nervous System | Nervous Tissue | Types of neurons | The Function of The Nervous Tissue | The Action Potential |
---|---|---|---|---|
What is in charge of stimulating all movement through ought the body
CNS
|
What is the cell body of a neuron also referred as?
Soma
|
What is the name of the cell that has only one process emerging from it
Unipolar
|
What is the name of the sensory receptor found on the akin of the fingers or toes.
Thermoreceptor
|
Voltage gated channels open up when the transmembrane does what
Changes
|
The Central Nervous System communicates with the brain and
Spinal Cord
|
What is the fiber that connects a neuron with it's target
Axon
|
What is the name of the cell that is found in the olfactory epithelium
Bipolar
|
The amount of change that is dependent on the stimulus is called
Graded potential
|
sodium cation entering a cell wall causing the cell to be less negative is called
Depolarization
|
What is in charge of perception and processing of sensory stimuli
Brain
|
What is the process that branches off of Soma?\
Dendrite
|
What is the name of the neuron that is not unipolar or bipolar
Multipolar
|
the voltage at which a neuromuscular signal is generated at a neuromuscular junction is called
threshold
|
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
|
What is in charge all nerves
PNS
|
What is the lipid rich substance that axons are insulated by called
Myelin
|
Unipolar cells have one process that includes both the axon and the
Dendrite
|
What is the part of the CNS that acts as a relay for sensory information
Thalamus
|
What is generally a rule for electrical wires and plumbing, just as it is true fro axons
resistance
|
What is the structures if the PNS referred to as
Ganglia
|
What is a variety of cells that provide framework for of tissue that supports the neurons and their activities?
Glial Cell
|
What is the name of the multipolar cell that has a cell body shaped like a pyramid
pyramidal cell
|
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
