44
Q

function of internal carotid arteries

A

supply the orbits and 80% of cerebrum

45
Q

function of vertebral arteries

A

supply the cervical part of the spinal cord and the brain with blood

46
Q

the PNS has two types of neurologia. what do they do?

A

-support and hold neurons in place
or
-produce myelin sheath

47
Q

nervous tissue is composed of

A

neurons and neurologia

48
Q

do both the brain and spinal cord have blood vessesls?

A

yes

49
Q

a cluster of neuron cell bodies in the CNS is called

A

nucleus

50
Q

collection of nerve fibers is called

A

tract

51
Q

there are four types of neurologia in the CNS, what do they do

A
  1. support and hold neurons in spatial relationships
  2. phagocytize dead neurons and microorganisms
  3. produce and move cerebrospinal fluid
  4. form myeline sheath
52
Q

collection of neuron cell bodies in the PNS

A

ganglion

53
Q

dorsal root ganglia

A

contain cell bodies of sensory neurons

54
Q

autonomic ganglia

contain cell bodies of motor neurons

55
Q

a group of axons bound together by three connective tissue sheaths is called a

A

nerve

56
Q

endoneurium

A

surrounds the axon

57
Q

perineurium

58
Q

fassicles

A

61
Q

nerve fibers are

A

axons

62
Q

nerves are part of the

A

PNS

63
Q

What is the difference between a tract and a nerve?

A

tract found in the CNS, nerves are found in the PNS

64
Q

two cranial nerves that are purely sensory

A

olfactory and optic

65
Q

nerve plexuses

A

interlacing networks of nerves

66
Q
