Nerves
what cranial nerve is used for vision?
optic
Slight/mild brain injury, Bleeding and tearing of nerve fiber, Recovery likely with some memory loss
Concussion
Frontal lobe
This is required for the muscle for contract/relax
ATP
The _________ is made up of the brain and spinal cord.
Central nervous system
What nerve is used for face movement and taste?
Facial Nerve
A more severe TBI, Nerve tissue dies, does not regenerate
Contusion
This region is behind the ears. (Sounds like: A Japanese dish of fish, vegetables, or most commonly, shrimp.)
Temporal lobe
The axon of each motor neuron has numerous endings called...
Motor unit ending
The ________ consists of nerves that connect the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body.
Peripheral Nervous System
What nerve is used for eye movement?
Trochlear Nerve
Swelling from the inflammatory response, May compress and kill brain tissue
Cerebral edema
This lobe is located at the back of the head and is responsible for visual reception (color, space, motion)
Occipital lobe
The actual gap between an axonal ending and the muscle cell is called...
Synaptic cleft
The ______ is a part of the peripheral nervous system that regulates involuntary physiologic processes including heart rate, blood pressure, respiration, digestion, and sexual arousal. Hint: sounds like "automatic."
Autonomic nervous system
What nerve is used to smell?
Olfactory nerve
Collection of blood below the dura
Subdural hematoma
This lobe is one of the major lobes of the brain, located at upper back area of the skull, and processes sensory information.
Parietal
Within the axonal endings are many small vesicles containing a neurotransmitter substance called...
Acetylcholine
The _____ delivers information from your senses to your brain using nerves. It also carries commands from your brain to your muscles so you can move around.
Somatic nervous system
name 6 cranial nerves
olfactory, oculomotor, trigeminal, facial, glossopharyngeal, accessory, optic, trochlear, abducens, vestibulocochlear, vagus, hypoglossal
Commonly called a stroke, Ruptured blood vessel supplying brain region, Brain tissue dies because of lack of blood supplying oxygen, Loss of functions or death
Cerebrovascular Accident (CVA)
Show where each lobe is on the brain, either by speaking or by labelling a physical model
See model/description
A motor neuron and all of the skeletal muscles cells it stimulates is called a...
Motor unit
The two sections of the somatic nervous system; one controlling processing input from the environment, the other supporting movement and neural connections with muscle tissues.
Sensory and motor
