Q

Gaps where myelin is not present on a neuron is

A

node of ranveir

18
Q

an impulse, jumping from node to node is called

A

Saltatory conduction

19
Q

when an axon is not conducting an impulse, the inside of the neuron is

A

Negative and at -65 mv

20
Q

What does the sodium potassium pump do in resting potential?

A

maintain uneven distribution of Na and K ions am

21
Q

In resting potential where are sodium ions are pumped

A

Outside and potassium in

22
Q

what measures voltages during conductions of impulse

A

oscilloscope

23
Q

Two main functions of spinal cord t

A

Receives info and send messages to brain

24
Q

What is gray matter?

A

has unmyelinated cell bodies and contains interneuron

25
what is white matter
have myelinated interneuron a that run together in tracts
26
what does action’s potential mv change to
+40mv
27
What is the membrane of the first neuron in a synapse called
presynaptic membrane
28
What is the membrane of the next neuron in a synapse called
postsynaptic membrane
29
what is the gap between two membranes called
synaptic cleft
30
i when a nerve reaches a synaptic ending what happens
the membrane becomes permeable to calcium ions, causing milofilamenfs to pull vesicles
31
what enzyme breaks down acetylcholine
acetylcholinesterase
32
how are neurotransmitters removed
removed by enzymes or rapidly reabsorbed
33
how many cranial nerves are there
12 pairs
34
how many pairs of spinal nerves
31
35
what do receptors do
receives environment stimulus
36
what do effectors do
bring reaction to stimulus
37
he neurotransmitte used by the sympathetic nervous system is:
norepinephrine
38
outside of a neuron, the cytoplasm inside a resting neuron is :
negatively charged and the sodium ion concentration is lower inside than outside
39
increased sodium ions and a decreased potassium ions is observed during
action potential downswing
40
The distribution of sodium and potassium ions across the membrane of an axon is maintained by:
active transport
41
resting potential, which of the following conditions exist outside the neuron?
excess potassium
42
what event occurs during repolarization
potassium gates open
