Q

__ perform various supportive functions such as protecting neuron, regulate inonic balance in tissue, immune functions, etc.

23
Q

The __ is where the majority of cells mechanics resides, it is the where signal integration occurs

A

cell body / soma

24
The __ is the receiving end of the neuron that collect electrical signals
Dendrites
25
The __ is between the soma and the axon.
axon hillock
26
The __ is for signal transmission by passing signals onto other cells by releasing neurotransmitters
axon
27
This structure had a soma that sits between a receiving line of dendrites and and axon.
Bipolar neuron
28
This structure has one line connected to the soma where information from dendrites comes in and signals leave the soma.
unipolar neuron
29
This structure has a some with multiple dendrites connected to it along with an axon connected to the soma too.
multipolar neuron
30
What are some examples of bipolar sensory neurons?
photoreceptors | olfactory receptors
31
What are some examples of unipolar neurons?
hair cells taste receptors somatic sensory neurons visceral sensory neurons
32
What are some example of multipolar neurons?
skeletal muscle cardiac muscle smooth muscle glands
33
___ are cells that detect light
photoreceptor
34
__ are cells that can detect odorants
olfactory receptors
35
__ are cells that can detects fluid movements in the inner ear
hair cells
36
what kind of receptors does the skin have?
touch receptors pressure receptors temperature receptors pain receptors
37
What kind of receptors do internal organs have?
stretch receptors chemical receptors temperature receptors pain receptors
38
What are some examples of somatic sensory neurons?
``` photoreceptors olfactory receptors hair cells taste receptors various skin receptors skeletal muscle ```
39
what are some examples of visceral sensory neurons?
- internal organs (heart, stomach)
40
what are some example of where autonomic sensory neurons are?
heart stomach glands (adrenal glands)
41
Where are interneurons found?
between sensory neurons between motor neurons in spinal cord between sensory and motor neurons
42
what are the types of receptors for sensory neurons?
- somatic receptors | - visceral receptors
43
what are the types of effectors for motor neurons?
- somatic | - autonomic
44
__ gather information about environment from body exterior.
somatic receptors
45
__ gathers information about internal organs from inside body.
visceral receptors
46
__ are classified as non-neural cells in nervous tissue.
neuroglia
47
what are the different types of neuroglia cells?
- astrocytes - ependymal cells - microglial cells - oligodendrocyte - neurolemmocytes
48
an end foot is found on what kind of neuroglia cells?
astrocytes
49
__ regulates the environment that neurons live in
astrocytes
50
__ provide immune survalence and defense
microglial cells
51
__ are a type of neuroglia found on brain or spinal cord tissue
ependymal cells
52
__ are a type of neuroglia cells that are found around nerve fibers in the CNS
oligodendrocytes
53
__ are a type of neuroglia cells that are found around nerve fibers.
neurolemmocytes
54
which neuroglia cells are found in the CNS and which are found in the PNS?
CNS : astrocytes, ependymal cells, microglial cells , oligodendrocytes PNS : neurolemmocytes
55
__ surrounds axons of many (but not all) neurons and acts as insulation so signal travels faster and reduces interference from nearby axons
Myelin
