Chapter 11 Quizlet Anatomy
the ________ system controls brain and spinal cord central
The ________ nervous system controls the skeletal muscles. autonomic parasympathetic afferent sympathetic somatic somatic
The part of the peripheral nervous system that carries sensory information to the CNS is designated autonomic. motor. afferent. efferent. somatic. afferent
The efferent division of the peripheral nervous system innervates: glandular cells heart muscle cells smooth muscle cells skeletal muscle cells All of the answers are correct. all
The most abundant class of neuron in the central nervous system is bipolar. unipolar. multipolar. pseudopolar. anaxonic multipolar
The cytoplasm that surrounds the nucleus of a neuron is called the neuroplasm. sarcoplasm. nucleoplasm. perikaryon. protoplasm. perikaryon
Clusters of RER and free ribosomes in neurons are called perikaryon. neurofilaments. microglia. neurofibrils. Nissl bodies nissl bodies vThe axon is connected to the soma at the telodendria. synaptic terminal. axon hillock. synapse. collaterals axon hillock
Branches that may occur along an axon are called synapses. hillocks. telodendria. synaptic terminals. collaterals collaterals
Axons terminate in a series of fine extensions known as dendrites. terminals. synapses. collaterals. telodendria telodendria
The site of intercellular communication between a neuron and another cell is the collateral. telodendria. synapse. hillock. synaptic terminals. synapse
Neurotransmitters ready for release are stored in synaptic telodendria. terminals. mitochondria. neurosomes. vesicles. vesicles
Most CNS neurons lack centrioles. This observation explains the ability of neurons to produce a resting potential. the ability of neurons to communicate with each other. why CNS neurons grow such long axons. the ability of neurons to generate an action potential. why CNS neurons cannot divide to regenerate damaged tissue. why CNS neurons cannot divide to
