2. regarding th functions of the cerebral hemispheres:
- damage to the temporal lobes can lead to failure of voluntary movement
- the parietal lobes are involved in pain perception
- damage to the parietal lobes is associated with paralysis of the muscles on the contralateral side of the body
- the parietal lobe on the right side of the brain plays a significant role in the comprehension of speech
- the front lobe on the right side of the brain plays a significant role in the comprehension of speech
3. regarding the parasympathetic division of the ANS:
- parasympathetic postganglionic neurones secrete noradrenaline onto their target organs
- parasympathetic ganglionic neurones are distant from their target organs
- sympathetic postganglionic neurones secrete noradrenaline onto their target organs
- parasympathetic postganglionic neurons express muscarinic Ach receptors
- parasympathetic postganglionic neurones are found in spinal segments from T1 to L2
4. which statement about the CNS is correct?
- it contains the dorsal root ganglia
- the white matter contains nerve cell bodies
- the grey matter contains nerve cell bodies
- it contains 31 pairs of spinal nerves
- it contains twelve pairs of cranial nerves
5. regarding sensory receptor properties:
- the first step in sensory transduction is the generation of an AP
- the amplitude of a train of action potential in an afferent reflects the intensity of the stimulus given to its receptor
- the frequency of a train of AP in an afferent fibre reflects the intensity of the stimulus given to its receptor
- all receptors respond to a specific quality of a stimulus
- a touch receptor will generate a constant rate of discharge for as long as the receptor is stimulated
