- brain
- motor
- inter
- sensory
7. which neurons take signals from sense organ receptors to the CNS?
- brain
- motor
- sensory
- inter
8. What is an advantage of a converging neural pathway
- It keeps the signals repeating
- It increases sensitivity to excitatory or inhibitory signals
- It allows precision with movement
- It stops the signals repeating
9. What does the peripheral nervous system consist of?
- medulla and SAN
- brain and spinal cord
- somatic and autonomic nervous systems
- brain and spine
10. What effect does the sympathetic NS have on heart rate and breathing rate?
- keeps them the same
- Speeds them up
- slows them down
- has no affect
11. Give an advantage of a diverging neural pathway.
- It stops the signals repeating
- It can affect more than one destination at a time.
- It keeps the signals repeating
- It increases sensitivity to excitatory or inhibitory signals
12. In which type of neural pathway do signals travel from several neurons into one neuron?
- merging
- converging
- reverberating
- diverging
13. Motor and sensory neurons are part of which nervous system?
- somatic

- central
- brain
14. Name the two parts of the autonomic nervous system.
- sympathetic and parasympathetic
- symathetic and SAN
- medulla and SAN
- parasynpathetic and somatic
