This anatomical Direction is farther away from the midline
What is lateral
100
This type of stain is used to look at the morphology (structure) of a neuron
What is Golgi stain
100
Humans usually have this many pairs of chromosomes
What is 23
100
This glial cell does not originate from the nervous system
What is a microglia
100
This structure controls the basic survival functions
What is the medulla
200
This anatomical direction refers t something being farther away from the trunk
What is distal
200
This occurs in a "all or nothing" fashion and does not have a temporal distortion
What is an action potential
200
This action to histones will MUTE the DNA transcription
What is Methylation
200
This type of glial cell facilitates synaptic transmission and it also provides nutrients from the circulatory system
What is an astrocyte
200
This structure is responsible for the "sleep paralysis" phenomena
What is the Pons
300
This anatomical direction is used to label a type of fin that dolphins have
What is dorsal
300
This structure allows for a faster transmission of action potentials down the axon
What is the myelin sheath
300
This disorder occurs when you have three copies of chromosome 21
What is Down Syndrome (Trisomy 21)
300
This occurs when someone has an autoimmune disease which attacks the CNS neuron's myelin sheath
What is multiple sclerosis
300
This is a collection of nuclei that are responsible for the "four F's" of suvival: feeding, fighting, fleeing, and sexual behavior
What is the Hypothalamus
400
This anatomical direction "typically" means that something is going into the CNS
What is afferent
400
This type of synapse does not use neurotransmitters
What is a gap junction
400
This steroid hormone will damage the hippocampus in large concentrations during prolonged stress periods. It is usually high if it cannot be regulated by GR's
What is glucocorticoids
400
This type of glial cell secretes CSF
What is an ependymal cell
400
This structure has the primary role of sensory processing
What is the Thalamus
500
This anatomical direction means that it is going to the opposite side
What is contralateral
500
This ion is brought into the presynaptic terminal, binds to the vesicles and allows for exocytosis.
What is Calcium
500
Having a homozygous copy of this allele will predispose the chances that one will have depression
What is Serotonin- Short 5-HT allele
500
This glial cell is located in the PNS
What is Schwann cell
500
This structure is responsible for modulating movements
