Ganglions are a collections of what body?
Cell Bodies
There are photoreceptors that help us with our vision in low light areas. They are suppressed by light.
Rods
These trigger endocrine glands to make and release hormones.
Stimuli
What is the major function of the Urinary System?
Filters the blood and regulation
What part of the brain controls balance and movements?
The cerebellum
Photoreceptors are responsible for sensing what unit?
Light
What are the 5 senses?
Sight
Hearing
Touch
Taste
Smell
Breaks down food mechanically and chemically to aid digestion and regulate appetite.
The Stomach
Where in the kidneys is blood filtered?
Microscopic units called nephrons
What are the 4 brain lobes?
Frontal lobe, Parietal lobe, Occipital lobe, Temporal lobe
This nervous system is responsible for creating "fight" or "flight"
Sympathetic Nervous System
True or false- The brain is the biggest organ.
False
These glands produce so many hormones that control the organs of the body
Pituitary Glands
What is the funnel shaped tube which propels urine into the uterus
Renal Medulla
True or false the pons regulate the midbrain.
False
The 5 essential components for the reflex arc are?
Receptor, Sensory Neuron, Integration center, Motor neuron, Effector
This is a passageway that leads from the outside of the head to the tympanic membrane, or eardrum membrane, of each ear.
External acoustic canal
Which hormone is responsible for the "fight or flight" response?
Adrenaline
If your urine is cloudy, dark, or pink, what is it indicating.
Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)
This sends information coming from the spinal cord to the correct part of the brain
Thalamus
Name the 3 structural classifications of neurons.
Multipolar, Bipolar, and unipolar.
If we were to touch something cold/hot what type of receptors are responsible for us to feel it.
Thermoreceptors (free nerve endings also work)
This system interacts with the nervous system to coordinate and control the activities in your body.
Endocrine system
If blood pressure is too high and pushing too much blood into kidneys, muscles in glomeruli shrink so they won’t take as much in. What mechanism is this?
Myogenic Mechanism
If you were riding your bike, tipped over and hit your head, then when you wake up you have memory loss. What part of the brain did you hit?
Frontal lobes
