100
The 2 divisions the Nervous System is broken into.
What is the Central Nervous System and Peripheral Nervous System?
100
The function of the nervous system.
What is coordinates all activities of the body by sending messages through nerves?
100
The brain and spinal cord are apart of this division of the nervous system.
What is the Central Nervous System?
100
The largest part of the brain.
What is the cerebrum?
100
Coordinates movement of the skeletal muscle.
What is the cerebellum?
200
All nerves are made up of these.
What are neurons?
200
These transmit messages to and from the spinal cord.
What is a neuron?
200
Create a diagram of a neuron and label all major parts.
200
The amount of lobes in the cerebrum.
What is 4?
200
This lobe controls your sense of sight.
What is the occipital lobe?
300
This structure of the neuron houses the nucleus.
What is the cell body?
300
An injury that occurs due to a blow to the head with the brain hitting the inside of the skull.
What is a concussion?
300
Is made up by the nerves that originate from the sprinal cord.
What is the peripheral nervous system?
300
This lobe is responsible for voluntary movements.
What is the frontal lobe?
300
Compare grey matter vs white matter in the brain
Grey- Cell bodies, collects information
White- axons, transmits information
400
Branched structures that extend from the cell body.
What is a dendrite?
400
Transmit impulses away from the cell body and toward another neuron, muscle cell, or gland.
What is an axon?
400
The 3 anatomical structures involved in the nervous system.
What are the brain, spinal cord, and nerves?
400
Responsible for sensory information like feelings of heat, cold, pain, and body position in space.
What is the parietal lobe?
400
Regulates heartbeat, breathing, and reflexes.
What is the medulla oblongata?
500
Carry messages from receptors in the body TOWARD the Central Nervous System.
What is a sensory neuron?
500
Carry messages AWAY from the Central Nervous System to the muscles, glands, and organs.
What is a motor neuron?
500
Compare the sympathetic vs parasympathetic nervous systems.
The sympathetic nervous system is primarily associated with the "fight or flight" response, activating the body for stress or danger, while the parasympathetic nervous system promotes the "rest and digest" response.
500
Regulates body temp, appetite, sleep, metabolism, sexual development, and emotions.
What is the hypothalamus?
500
Relays incoming sensory impulses from the eyes, ears, and pressure receptors from the skin.
What is the thalamus?
