21
Q

The sensory (afferent) division has what two types of sensory nerve fibers?

A

Somatic sensory nerve fibers and

Visceral sensory nerve fibers

22
Q

Sensory neurons associated with: pain, touch, presure, vibration, tempature, hearing, equlibrium, and vision

A

somatic sensory neurons

23
Q

Sensory neurons associated with: stretch, pain, temperature, chemical changes, viscera, nausea, hunger, taste, and smell

A

Visceral sensory neurons

24
Q

flat cells surround neuron cell bodies in ganglia;

control chemical environment around neurons

A

Satellite cells

25
form insulating myelin sheaths around larger nerve fibers in PNS
Schwann cells
26
The somatic nervous system differs from the autonomic ns because the somatic ns:
is under voluntary control
27
excitable cells that transmit impulses
Neurons (nerve cells)
28
These cells have extreme longevity, cells can last a lifetime
neurons
29
These cells are amitotic no centrioles, cannot divide or be replaced if injured
neurons
30
Cells that have a high metabolic rate and high demand for O2 and glucose are called?
neurons
31
What is the impulse direction for neurons?
Dendrite, Cell Body, Axon DCBA
32
The cell body of a neuron is known as?
Soma
33
Rough endoplasmic reticulum responsible for protein production & transport
Nissl bodies
34
receptive, conduct impulses toward nerve cell body
dendrites
35
These extend from the cell body of all neurons and are generally know as?
neuron processes
36
receptive, conduct impulses toward nerve cell body
dendrites
37
conducts impulses away from nerve cell body
axon
38
This part of the axon begins impulse conduction
axon hillock
39
Another name for teleodendria is?
Terminal Branches
40
What part of the axon release neurotransmitters?
axonal terminals
41
protect & insulate axons; increase velocity (speed) of impulses along axons
Myelin Sheaths
42
Neurogilia of CNS that can form a myelin sheath over several axons
oligodendrocytes
43
gaps along myelin sheath
nodes of Ranvier
44
impulse jumps from node to node, faster conduction; polarity change at node only
saltatory conduction
45
myelinated axons in CNS are called?
white matter
46
unmyelinated axons in CNS are called?
gray matter
47
collection of nerve cell bodies in CNS
Nucleus
48
collection of nerve cell bodies in PNS
Ganglia
