6. Dendrite is...
- junction between the terminal button of an axon and membrane of another neuron
- tree-like structure which receives information from other neurons
- Cell body of a neuron, contains the nucleus
- long, thin, structure which conveys information from the soma to its terminal buttons
7. Communicates with Skeletal muscles and Sense organs
- Central
- Autonomic
- Somatic
- Sympathetic
8. Postsynaptic Potential...
- the graded response of the postsynaptic neuron - decremental and instantanous
- the neuron not being altered by excitatory or inhibitory responses - polarised
- the difference in electrical charge between the inside and outside of a cell
9. Damage to Lumbar Vertebrae
- Below the chest
- Below the neck
- Below the shoulders
- Below the hips
10. Saltatory Conduction
- conduction of action potentials by myelinated axons, action potentials jump from one node of ranvier to the next
- Passive conduction of electrical current, in a decremental fashion, down an axon
11. Cable Properties
- Passive conduction of electrical current, in a decremental fashion, down an axon
- conduction of action potentials by myelinated axons, action potentials jump from one node of ranvier to the next
13. Resting Potential means...
- A neuron is hyperpolarised with 70mV charge inside the cell, than outside the cell
- A neuron is depolarised with 70mV charge inside the cell, than outside the cell
- A neuron is polarised with 70mV charge inside the cell, than outside the cell
- A neuron is polarised with 70mV charge outside the cell, than inside the cell
14. Presynaptic Membrane
- Membrane opposite the terminal button in a synapse
- Membrane of a terminal button that lies adjacent to the postsynaptic membrane
- Small bud on surface of dendrite, terminal button of another neuron form a synapse
15. Parasympathetic Nervous System
- Rest & Digest
- Fight or Flight
16. Component inside Dura Mater
- Superior Sagittal Sinus
- Vein
- Arachnoid Granulation Villi
- Posterior Horn
17. CNS
- Cell bodies - Nuclei - Axon = Tracts
- Cell bodies - Ganglia - Axons = Nerves
18. Choroid Plexus is in the...
- Subarachnoid Space
- Medulla
- Lateral Ventricle
- Third Ventricle
19. Bipolar neuron...
- One axon attached to soma & axon divides with one branch
- One axon & one dendrite attached to soma
- One axon & many dendrites attached to soma
20. All or Nothing Law
- once action potential begins, it proceeds without decrement to terminal buttons
- variations in intensity of a stimulus are represented by variations in rate that an axon fires
