16
Q
  • the basic functional unit of the nervous
    system
  • consists of a cell body, one or more
    axons and dendrites
A

Neuron/nerve cell

17
Q
  • have a single stalk
    from the cell body that
    connects with the axon
18
Q
  • cell body bears an
    axon & a single, branched or
    unbranched dendrite
19
Q
  • have an axon and several branched dendrites
A

Multipolar

20
Q

Neurons ‘communicate’ with one another & with other cells either electrically or chemically via neurotransmitters through small space called _________.

21
Q

Area where neurons are concentrated

22
Q

Composed of a double chain of
ganglia joined by longitudinal
connectives

A

Central Nervous System

23
Q

connects to the ventral chain of
ganglia via two connectives that
travel around the pharynx.

24
Q

is highly complex & innervates the
sense organs & muscles
associated the mouthparts,
salivary glands & neck region.

A

Sub-=esophageal ganglion

25
- connects the brain to the stomatogastric subsytem
Frontal ganglion
26
– associated with two endocrine glands
Hypocerebral ganglion
27
– contain the sensory & motor centers for their respective segments
Thoracic ganglia
28
– each abdominal segment possesses a ganglion with the final ganglion associated with the genitalia
Abdominal ganglia
29
Nerves associated with the brain, salivary glands, and the foregut are the stomatogastric subsystem.
Visceral Nervous System
30
All of the nerves with synapses to the central and the visceral nervous systems comprise the ________ _________ system.
Peripheral Nervous System
31
3 Sensory Systems
Photoreceptor - detect light Chemoreceptor - detect chemical substances Mechanoreceptor - detect movements and vibration
32
provides the power for locomotory and other movements. It is comprised of from several hundred to a few thousand individual muscle.
muscular system
33
– to move one part of the exoskeleton in relation to one another
Skeletal muscles
34
– forms layer of tissue enveloping internal organs such as heart, gut and reproductive tract
Visceral muscle
