the special type of cells that do the primary work of the nervous system
What are Neurons?
100
The division of the nervous system contains the network of nerves in the body.
The peripheral nervous system.
100
The type of neurons that carry impulses away from the CNS
motor neurons.

What does the Somatic divison of the nervous system conrol?
Voluntary movement of the body
100
what is the peripheral system made of?
network of nerves.
200
what does PNS stand for?
peripheral nervous system
200
what does CNS stand for?
Central Nervous System
200
The subdivision of your peripheral nervous system that is made up of the nerves that control involuntary body responses and functions.
Autonomic nervous sysytem
200
The part of the neuron where organelles are stored
The cell body
200
What is the PNS responsible for?
Sending impulses from the senses to the CNS, and impulses from the CNS back to the body
300
Two subdivisions of the Autonomic Nervous System--and the function of each
Sympathetic "Fight or Flight" Parasympathetic Division- "rest and digest"
300
Name the three main parts of a neuron.
1- cell body 2- dendrites 3- axon
300
The type of neurons that carry impulses towards the CNS?
sensory neurons
300
The type of neurons that transmit impulses between neurons
interneurons
300
The part of the neuron labeled as number 1
Dendrites
400
The central nervous system is made of these organs
brain and spinal cord
400
The part of a neuron designed to transmit/receive signals.
The dendrite
400
Neurons with one axon and many dendrites
multipolar neurons
400
The type of neuron that is T shaped
unipolar neurons
400
The part of the neuron labeled as number 3
axon
500
These extensions of a neuron carry impulses away from the cell body.
What are Axons.
500
The subdivision of the peripheral nervous system that controls voluntary function (muscle and gland function).
The somatic nervous system.
500
neurons with one axon and one dendrite.
bipolar neurons.
500
The part of the neuron labeled number 2
The cell body.
500
What is the CNS responsible for?
receiving impulses from the PNS and sending impulses back for the body to react to situations.
