Aaaa12_Chapter-12_Nervous Tissue

Front 1

What are the 2 main parts of Nervous System?

Back 1

1) CNS
2) PNS

Front 2

PNS is divided into what 2 systems/divisions?

Back 2

1) Sensory division (afferent)
2) Motor division (efferent)

Front 3

Define:
Sensory Division

Back 3

You're taking in info
& it's going towards CNS (brain & Spinal cord)=afferent signal

Front 4

Define:
Motor Division

Back 4

(Info is going)
Away from brain/spinal cord; Carries signal from CNS to gland & muscle cells that carry out the body's responses.

Ex: Writing notes now

Front 5

What is
Visceral Sensory Division?

Back 5

Internal you have no control; Carries signals mainly from the viscera of the thoracic & abdominal abdominal cavities, such as the heart, lungs, stomach, & urinary bladder

Front 6

What is
Somatic Sensory Division?

Back 6

Carries signals from receptors in the skin, muscles, bones, & joints

Front 7

What are the 2 divisions of
Visceral Motor Division?

Back 7

1) Sympathetic Division
2) Parasympathetic Division

Front 8

Define:
Sympathetic division?

Back 8

Fight/flight response

Front 9

What is Parasympathetic division?

Back 9

Normal day to day

Front 10

What are the 3 general classes of neurons / "Nervous System Mantra"

Back 10

1) Sensory (afferent) neurons
2) Interneurons
3) Motor (efferent) neurons

Front 11

Describe:
Sensory (afferent) neurons?

Back 11

Take info ; stimuli

Front 12

Describe:
Interneurons?

Back 12

Incorporate info ; process stimulus

Front 13

Describe:
Motor neurons?

Back 13

Response ; respond

Front 14

What are the 3 Properties of Neurons? (Which enables them to communicate with other cells)

Back 14

1) Excitable
2) Conductive
3) Secretory

Front 15

Describe
(Property of Neuron's) property:
Excitable

Back 15

These cells respond to stimuli

Front 16

Describe
(Property of Neuron's Property: Conductive)?

Back 16

(Electricity)
able to send out signal & activate other cells

Front 17

Describe
(Property of Neuron's Property: Secretory)?

Back 17

Releasing neurotransmitter or some type of electrical signal, (causing a response to the body)

Front 18

Describe the structure of a neuron (name at least 5 parts)

Back 18

1) soma
2) nucleus
3) processes of cell neuron:
-dendrites
-axon
-axon hillock

Front 19

Define:
Soma

Back 19

Cell body of neuron

Front 20

Define by function:
dendrites

Back 20

take in info

Front 21

Define by function:
Axon

Back 21

send/release out info

Front 22

Define by function:
Axon hillock

Back 22

part where neuron start to form axon

Front 23

Define:
Axonal transport?

Back 23

The two-way passage of proteins, organelles, & other materials along an axon.

Front 24

Define:
Anterograde transport

Back 24

Movement away from the soma down the axon

Front 25

Define:
Retrograde transport

Back 25

Movement up the axon toward the soma

Front 26

What are the 2 types of axonal transport?

Back 26

1) Fast axonal transport
2) Slow axonal transport

Front 27

What are the 2 types of Fast Axonal Transport?

Back 27

1) Anterograde axonal transport
2) Retrograde axonal transport

Front 28

Define:
Somatic Motor Division?

Back 28

Carries signals to the skeletal muscles. This output produces muscular contractions that are under voluntary control, as well as involuntary muscle contractions called "somatic reflexes"
