I am a portion of the brain.
I am between the diencephalon and spinal cord.
I contain the midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongata.

Front 11

Insertion

Back 11

I am a more movable attachment.

Front 12

Synapse

Back 12

I am a region of communication between two neurons.

Front 13

Diencephalon

Back 13

I am part of the brain between the cerebral hemispheres and the midbrain.
I include the thalamus, hypothalamus, and epithalamus.

Front 14

Nervous System

Back 14

I am the major regulatory and communicating system in the body.
I am center of all mental activities including thought, learning, and memory.
Together with endocrine system, I am responsible for maintaining homeostatis.

Front 15

Organization of Nervous System

Back 15

I am divided into 2 subdivisions.
My 1st division central nervous system (CNS) and my 2nd division is peripheral nervous system (PNS).

Front 16

Central Nervous System
(CNS)

Back 16

I consist of the brain and spinal cord.
I am located in the dorsal body cavity.
I am surrounded by connective tissue membranes called meninges.

Front 17

Peripheral Nervous System
(PNS)

Back 17

I am composed of 2 organs nerves & ganglia.
My cranial nerves & spinal nerves extend from the CNS to peripheral organs.
My ganglia are collections of nerve cell bodies outside the CNS.

Front 18

Afferent

Back 18

I am part of the PNS.
I transmit impulses from peripheral sense receptors to CNS.
I deal with sensory input.

Front 19

Efferent

Back 19

I transmit impulses from CNS to effectors such as muscles & glands in periphery.
I deal with motor input.
i am located entirely within the CNS.

Front 20

Refactory Period

Back 20

I am part of a nerve impulse.
I am the period of time during which a point on the cell membrane is "recoving" from depolarization.
This is when I rest.

Front 21

Rigor Mortis

Back 21

I happen when the ATP in muscles breaks down.
I disappear after a day or so later when muscle proteins deteriorate.
I mean "stiffness of death".

Front 22

Twitch

Back 22

I am a muscle's response to a single threshold stimulus.
This is not the way a muscle in the body normally functions.
I have three distinct phases.

Front 23

Muscle Tone

Back 23

I keep the back & legs straight.
I help to stabilize joints.
I am refered to the continued state of partial contractions that are present in muscles.

Front 24

Muscles of mastication

Back 24

I have 4 pairs of muscles that are responsible for chewing movements or mastication.
Two muscles are temporalis and masseter.
All of the muscles insert on the mandible.

Front 25

Diaphragm

Back 25

I am a dome shape muscle that forms a partition between thorax & abdomen.
I have three openings for structures that has to pass from thorax to abdomen.

Front 26

Rectus Abdominis

Back 26

I run vertically from the pubic bone to the ribs & sternum on each side of midline.
I also flexes vertebral column and compresses abdomen.

Front 27

External Oblique

Back 27

I am the outer muscle layer of the abdominal wall muscles.
I have fibers that run inferiorly & medially.

Front 28

Pia Mater

Back 28

I am the inner most layer of the meninges.
I am a thin delicate membrane.
I am tightly bound to the surface of the brain.

Front 29

Dura Mater

Back 29

I am the outer layer of the meninges.
I am tough, white, fibrous tissue.
I am located inside the cranial bones.

Front 30

Arachnoid

Back 30

I am the middle layer of the meninges.
I resemble a cobweb in apperance.

Front 31

Occipital Lobe

Back 31

I am responsible for vision.
I am one of the functions of frontal lobe, temporal lobe, and parietal lobe.

Front 32

Temporal Lobe

Back 32

I contained the auditory & olfactory areas.
I am inferior to the frontal & parietal lobes.

Front 33

Frontal Lobe

Back 33

I control voluntary movement for the opposite side of the body.
Contains functions for speech.
Lobe is most anterior portion of the hemisphere.

Front 34

Proprital Lobe

Back 34

I control the sensation of touch and taste.
I am immediately posterior to the central sulcus.
