Joints
Joints that produce no movement are called
synarthrosis
name the 3 types of muscle
skeletal, cardiac, smooth
name the functions of the nervous system and endocrine system and compare
coordinate all activities to maintain homeostasis
NS = fast
ES= slower but lasts longer
name the 3 layers of meninges
dura mater, arachnoid, pia mater
white matter vs gray matter
white = myelinated axons
gray = unmyelinated axons
give 3 examples of immoveable joints
suture, gomphosis, synchondrosis
list 4 skeletal muscle functions
move, maintain, protect, support, guard, homeostasis
the myelin of the CNS is due to what cells
oligodendrocytes
what separates the right and left brain
corpus collosum
the muscle in charge of extension of the arm
triceps brachii
give the name of slightly moveable joints and two examples
amphiarthrosis
syndesmosis, symphysis
compare and contrast skeletal, smooth and cardiac muscle
smooth = involuntary, unstriated, uninucleate
cardiac = involuntary, striated, uninucleate
skeletal = multinucleate, voluntary, striated
describe afferent vs efferent
efferent = motor
name the 6 regions of the brain
cerebrum
diencephalon
midbrain
pons
medulla oblongata
cerebellum
what is communicated between nerves
neurotransmitters
name all 6 types of synovial joints
saddle, pivot, ball and socket, gliding, hinge, condylar
describe the function of the sarcomere and the components inside
actin and myosin, what allows the muscles to contract
compare and contrast somatic vs autonomic system
somatic controls skeletal muscle
autonomic controls smooth, cardiac and glands
name function of limbic system and components
emotions!
olfactory cortex, basal nuclei, hippocampus
name the neuroglial cells of CNS and their functions
astrocytes = BBB
oligodendrocytes = myelination
microglia = immune system of brain
ependymal cells = CBS
give an example of each type of synovial joint
hinge = elbow
gliding = clavicle and scapula
condylar = joints in hand
saddle = finger joints
pivot = joints between atlas
ball and socket = hip and leg
give the origin, insertion and action of the biceps brachii
origin = scapula
insertion = radius
action = flexion and supination
list and describe the classification of neurons
bipolar = have 1 dendrite and 1 axon (special sense organs)
multipolar = two or more dendrite and 1 axon (CNS neurons)
unipolar = dendrites and axon are continuous (sensory neurons)
name components of the brainstem and functions
diencephalon = integrates sensory info
midbrain = sensory info
medulla oblongata = reflex centers
pons = links the others to spinal cord
name the lobes of the brain and functions
frontal = higher processing
parietal = touch perception and orientation
occipital - sight
temporal = auditory processing and langage
brainstem = involuntary response
cerebellum = balance and coordination
