Scientist regard the three broad types of neurons as.

What is sensory, motor, and interneurons 

100

This cell elaborates a single myelin segment around a single axon and is surrounded by a basal lamina that is continuous with the adjacent internode. 

What is a schwann cell

100

When damage is affiliated to the brainstem or spinal cord what is the main consequence of this situation. 

What is paralysis

100

The four lobes of the brain

What is frontal, parietal, temporal and occipital?

100

With every movement and stretch of your body it is a result of this part of your brain communicating  with your body parts.

What is somatic nervous system 

200

This tissue within your brain affects your functionality and consist of numerous concentrations of neuronal bodies and axon terminals.

What is grey matter

200

Opposed to schwann cells these cells myelinate up to 60 different axons and utilise them to allow the fast and efficient transfer of neuronal communication through the myelination of axons.

What is a oligodendrocytes

200

This connective tissue links the brain to the spinal cord of the human body.

What is the brain stem

200

The total brain volume the subcortical structure compromises

What is 25%?

200

The two divisions of the autonomic nervous system are known as

What is the sympathetic division and the parasympathetic division 

300

White matter is found within this section of the brian regarded as the deep part of the tissue.

What is subcortical

300

These cells perform metabolic, structural, homeostatic, and neuroprotective tasks such as clearing excess neurotransmitters, stabilizing and regulating the blood-brain barrier, and promoting synapse formation. 

What is astrocytes

300

What body part protects the spinal cord from any form of trauma.

What is the vertebrae 

300

The meninges protects these things

What is the brain and spinal cord?

300

When your bodies functions are going off unconsciously such as breathing its a result of. 

What is the sympathetic division

400

This part of a neuron is used to attach to a cells axon and is a specialised part of the neurons body.

What is an axon hillock

400

These cells are resident immune cells of the brain and constantly patrol the cerebral microenvironment to respond to pathogens and damage.

What is microglia

400

Which part of the brain generates and circulates cerebrospinal fluid 

What is the Ventricular system

400

The number of subcortical structures 

What is 7?

400

A decrease of heart rate and respiration and increased digestion are all apart of

What is the parasympathetic

500

This part of the neuron helps conduct electricity faster and more efficiently because of a processes known as saltatory conduction. 

What is node Ranvier 

500

The astrocytes shape is reminiscent of this shape

What is a Star

500

This birth defect is classified as missing parts of the skull and brainstem.

What is Anencephaly

500

The number of layers the meninges has

What is 3 layers?

500

When the parasympathetic division is stimulated is produces'

What is Constriction of pupils. Decreased heart rate and blood pressure.
