It depolarizes
45
Presynaptic neuron
Sends signals
46
Post synaptic neuron
Receives signals
47
Voluntary control; CNS to skeletal muscle
Somatic division
48
Involuntary control; cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, glands
Autonomic motor division
49
Perikaryon
Cell body
50
Cytoplasm of neuron
Neuropharmacologist
51
(Chromatophillic substance) rough ER sections that make proteins
Nissl bodies
52
Dendrites
Usually short, many processes that conduct impulses toward cell body (afferent process)
53
Axon
-Long process that carries impulses away from cell body
54
In a axon | -side branches
Collaterals
55
Ends in axon terminals (part of axon)
Teleodendra
56
Supplies the myelin sheathes to the axons in the PNS
Schwann cells
57
Outer layer of Schwann cells contains cytoplasm
Neurilemma
58
Gaps between Schwann cells
Nodes of ranvier
59
Occurs along myelinated axons- myelin acts as electrical insulator
Saltatory conduction
60

Epineurium
61
Dense irregular CT around fascicles of axons
Perineueium
62
