Menengies
Neuro glia
Parts of a nerve
Parts of the Brain
Conduction
100

This is the deepest layer of menengies that is connected to the brain and spinal cord. 

What is pia mater?

100

This neuroglia is responsible for removing pathogens and can sometimes travel to the PNS but is mainly in the CNS. 

What is microglia?

100

This contains the cells nucleus and DNA as well as other organelles.

What is the cell body?

100

The brain can be divided into left and right these. 

What are hemispheres?

100

This is the condition in which a nerve has action potential or as we say it is at rest. 

What is polarization? Or polarized

200

This fluid is found in the subarachnoid space and is responsible for nutrient exchange, waste removal, shock absorbtion and is created by ependymocytes.

What is cerebrospinal fluid?
200

The most numerous, largest neuroglia that is responsible for creating the blood brain barrier by connecting to blood vessels and stopping any chemicals from entering the brain are these. 

What are astrocytes?

200

These slender projections recieve stimuli and transmits the impulse towards the cell body. 

What are dendrites?

200

This region known as the forebrain is the largest region and divided into lobes. 

What is the cerebrum?

200

Thus is when a nerve recieves a stimulus and becomes active.

What is depolarization?

300

This middle layer is named after a spider because it is weblike. 

What is arachnoid mater?

300

These CNS neurolglia create insulation known as myelin.

What are oligodenderocytes?

300

This fiber transmits signals or impusles away from the cell body. 

What is the axon?

300

This region is connects to the spinal cord and while the mid brain and pons are relay stations the medulla oblongata is responsible for your autonomic reflexes and cardiovascular and vasomotor centers.

What is the brain stem?

300

This is the period of time that it takes before a nerve can recieve another impulse. 

What is the refractory period?

400

This is the area where serous fluid is found and named for the menengies in which it is under. 

What is the subdrual space?

400

Thesd PNS cells create myelin shesths to insulate the axon.

What are schwann cells?

400

These gaps between the myelin sheaths allow impulses to hop and speed up the transmission. 

What are nodes of Ranvier?

400

This region is supposedly cauliflower shaped and it is the second largest region that controls voluntary movements and balance.

What is the cerebellum?

400

This is when the neuron is returning to its resting state. 

What is repolarization?

500
This menengial membrane is the thickest and most superficial. 

What is the dura mater?

500

These line ventricles of the brain and spinal cord and secrete Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).

What are ependymocytes?

500

The end of the axon where neurotransmitters are stored. 

What is Synaptic Bulb (or vesicles)?

500

This region of the brain houses the thalamus, hypothalamus, pituitary and pineal glands and regulates consciousness and autonmic functions. 

What is the diencephalon?

500

Thus pump helps to remove sodium from the cell and potassium back into the cell during repolarization.

What is the sodium potassium pum?
