Muscles of the Body
The shortening of muscles when contracting.
What is concentric
The collection of neuronal cell bodies in the PNS, and then in the CNS.
What is ganglia and nuclei
Two cranial nerves that are purely sensory.
CN I (Olfactory) & CN II (Optic)
The four types of lingual papillae responsible for sweet taste.
What are fungiform & vallate papillae
The 9 major hormones secreted by pituitary gland & which ones are anterior/posterior.
GH, PRL, TSH, ACTH, FSH, LH, MSH (endorphins), Oxytocin, vasopressin
The five types of muscle fascicle arrangement.
What is convergent, parallel, circular, pennate, fusiform
This cell produces cerebral spinal fluid
What is ependymal cells.
The largest nerve in the lumbar plexus & sacral plexus.
Femoral, sciatic
The three cranial nerves that convey sensory taste info to cerebral cortex.
What are facial, glossopharyngeal, & vagus.
Tropic hormones secreted by the pituitary
TSH, ACTH, FSH, LH.
The four main pairs of muscles important for mastication.
What is masseter, temporalis, pterygoid, buccinator
Enclosed bundles of peripheral axons in PNS.
What are nerves.
The region of the CNS that sympathetic nerves & parasympathetic nerves arise from.
What is the thorax and lumbar region of the spinal cord. & brainstem and sacral region of the spinal cord.
The 6 muscles that control eye movement.
What are Lateral, medial, superior, inferior rectus, superior oblique, inferior oblique
The hypophyseal portal system connects.
What is the hypothalamus and anterior pituitary
These muscles cross the shoulder joint to insert into the humerus.
deltoid, pectoralis major, letissimus dorsi, supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres major, coracobrachialis.
Three paired structures of the diencephalon.
What are thalamus, hypothalamus, epithalamus.
Rami communicantes.
Gray or white rami that connect the ventral rami of the spinal nerves to the sympathetic trunk.
Muscle responsible for dampening the sound during chewing.
Tensor tympani
The cells of the adrenal medulla that secrete epinephrine & norepinephrine.
What are chromaffin cells
The flow of CSF after it is made by the choroid plexus.
What is lateral ventricle - interventricular foramina-third ventricle-cerebral aqueduct-fourth ventricle
The neural pathway leading to the innervation of the adrenal medulla.
Sympathetic pre-ganglionic fibers exiting from the ventral root enter the sympathetic trunk via the white ramus communicante, and then continue out to the thoracic splanchnic nerve to innervate the adrenal medulla cells directly to secrete epinephrine into the blood stream
Links the middle ear with the pharynx
what is the eustachian tube or pharyngotympanic tube
The hormones secreted by the pancreas that balance blood sugar levels.
Insulin & glucagon
