Behavioral Neuroscience Cps (1,2,3,4)

Question 1

What do neurons do?

Answer 1

detect changes and communicate those changes to other cells, & command the bodys response

Question 2

What do Glia do?

Answer 2

insulate, support, and nourish neurons

Question 3

What does the Nissle Stain show?

Answer 3

nuclei and surrounding

Question 4

What does the gogli stain show? and how does it work?

Answer 4

cell body and neurites, using silver chromate

Question 5

What kind of stains did golgi and Cajal use?

Answer 5

Gogli stain

Question 6

what theory did golgi beleive?

Answer 6

network theory (reticulum) : neurties are fused together, individual cellas are not uniquely different.

Question 7

What theory did Cajal beleive in?

Answer 7

Neuron Doctrine (cell theory): cells are not continuos and they communicate by contact not continuity.

Question 8

Which theory is correct and who held this beleif?

Answer 8

Neuron Doctrine (Cell theory), Cajal

Question 9

Cytosol

Answer 9

Watery like substance inside the cell with ions.

Question 10

Cytoplasm

Question 11

Nucleus

Answer 11

contains chromosomes, dna, then genes.

Question 12

Genes

Answer 12

Segments used to create products for the cell

Question 13

Protiens

Answer 13

proteins are created when mRNA goes through a ribosome or a rough er

Question 14

mRNA

Answer 14

RNA is the Reverse copy or DNA, RNA then gets processed and cut down into a mRNA transcript

Question 15

the process of Gene transcription

Answer 15

When we have to ship information about how to make a protein outside the cell nuclease, we send a photocopy of the gene.

Question 16

the process of translation

Answer 16

Translation happens after we’ve made mRNA, we slap ribosomes onto mRNA and this creates proteins. JOB WELL DONE

Question 17

Knockout Mice

Answer 17

One gene has been deleted or “knocked out”

Question 18

Transgenic mice

Answer 18

Genes have been introduced and over expressed

Question 19

what can knockout mice and transgenic mice be used to study?

Answer 19

ways to change organisms by design with gene mutations or insertions

Question 20

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

Answer 20

inside the cell, conducts proteins sythesis on rybosones

Question 21

RIbosomes

Answer 21

main runction is protein snythesis

Question 22

Mitocondrion

Answer 22

Power house of the cell, takes provic acid and Creates ATP

Question 23

the membrane and its function

Answer 23

1. encloses cells, prevents various substances in the extracelluar fluid from entering cell
2. filled with proteins

Question 24

the axon

Answer 24

coomunicates

Question 25

axon hillock

Answer 25

closest part of axon to cell

Question 26

axon branches

Question 27

axon terminal

Answer 27

where the axon ends (button) where communication happens from one cell to another

Question 28

synapse

Answer 28

the coming together of two cells.

Question 29

when a cell is providing innervation, what is it doing?

Question 30

Space between pre- and post-synpatic components is called

Answer 30

cynaptic cleft

Question 31

transfer of information is called

Answer 31

action potential

what are synaptic vesicles and nuerotransmitters

Answer 32

synaptic vesicles are filled with neurotransmitters, they fuse with pre-synaptic membranes

Question 33

neurotransmitter

Answer 33

neurotransmitters release a chemical signaled from synaptic vesicles

what does the word dendrite come from

Answer 34

dendron greek for (tree)

Question 35

dendrite

Answer 35

the listeners part of neurites

Question 36

?whats a dendritic tree?
