Q

In the PNS, what are Afferent and Efferent nerves

A
  • Afferent: (Sensory) nerves that transmit signals from receptors to CNS

Q

which part of the brain would use info from the proprioceptors to coordinate muscle movements? (unconscious)

21
Q

what is found the lateral line of fishes but the inner ear of vertebrates? what is it used for

A

vertebrate hair cells - have 2 types of cilia for detection of movement often covered with a cupula

22
Q

what do lateral line organs inform animals of

A

moving objects or objects in its’ path

23
Q

in the vertebrate inner ear, what does the Vestibular apparatus contain. In what part of the labyrinth (upper or lower)

A

upper part of labyrinth

- contains saccule, utricle, and semicircular canals

24
what does the labyrinth in the inner ear help, what does it consist of (structurally)
helps maintain equilibrium by fluid-filled chambers and canals
25
Where are Otoliths located(2). What do they enable an animal to perceive and how?
- in Saccule and Utricle - enable animal to perceive Direction of Gravity by changing position when head is tilted/when body is accelerating and stimulating hair cells that signal to the brain
26
in the ear, what informs the brain about Turning movements and how
``` Circular Canals (oriented in 3 planes) - clumps of hair in each Ampullae (bulblike enlargements) are stimulated by movements of fluid that fills each canal ```
27
(The path of sound) | Movements stimulate hair cells of the _____ by rubbing them against the overlying _____
Organ of Corti | - Tectorial membrane
28
what is the difference/similarity between Olfaction (smell) and Gustation(taste) chemoreceptors?
>Olfaction - samples Small quantities of molecules Away from the source > Gustation - samples Large quantities of molecules Directly from the source > Both depend on a dissolved molecule fitting into a receptor on a cell
29
what type of receptor use pigments to transduce light energy
photoreceptors
30
what is the major photoreceptor Pigment in animals
Rhodopsin
31
what type of animals are eyespots found in? What do they do
- detect light but dont form images | - found in Cnidarians and Flatworms
32
(human eye) Light enters through the ___ is focused by the ___ produces an image on the ____ amount of light entering is regulated by the ____
enters cornea focused by lens image on Retina light regulate by Iris
33
In the retina which type of receptors are most abundant, function in dim light and form images in black and white
Rods
34
In the retina which type of receptors are concentrated near the center, function in Bright light, and permit color vision
Cones
35
In the retina what do Bipolar cells do
send signals to Ganglion cells
36
what combination of systems does the vertebrate circulatory system consist of
cardiovascular and immune/lymphatic systems plus associate organs
37
the vertebrate circulatory system transports . . .(4) helps maintain . . . (3) and defends against microrganisms

what are Leukocytes and what is their role in the body
white blood cells | - defend body against disease organisms
43
what kind of cells in the body are semi-independent amoeboid cells
