Block 2 Nervous System Flashcards
sympathetic chain ganglion is blank
motor
nerve cells are blank under light microscopy
quite large
nerve cells have very prominent blank which offshoot from cell body
processes
RER of a nerve cell is in the cell body and is aka blank
nissl body
processes are aka
dendrites
cell body is aka
soma
junction between axon and soma
axon hillock
nerve cells are acidophilic or basophilic
basophilic
neuropile is important because it is the space between cells where blank occurs
synapses
most synapses are blank
axodendritic
presynaptic area of em has these
synaptic vesicles
postsynaptic area of cells in em are electron blank
dense
size of synaptic cleft
20-30 nm
axons are usually basophilic or acidophilic
acidophilic
lighter colored axons are blank or blank
lightly myelinated, nonmyelinated
