Question 1

Nervous System

Answer 1

Communication network of the body composed of two divisions: CNS and PNS

Question 2

Consist of the brain and the spinal cord, and its primary function is to control and interpret information.

Answer 2

Central Nervous System (CNS)

Question 3

Consist of nerves that connect the CNS to the rest of the body. Senses the environment and tells the body how to respond based on signals from the CNS.

Answer 3

Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)

Question 4

The PNS serves two main functions

Answer 4

1. Provide connection for the nervous system to activate effector (organ, muscle) sites. 2. Relay information from effort site back to the brain via sensory receptors

Question 5

The PNS consist of the somatic and autonomic nervous system. What is somatic?

Answer 5

Responsible for the voluntary control of movement such as movement of the biceps and legs

Question 6

The PNS consist of the somatic and autonomic nervous system. What is autonomic?

Answer 6

Providers neural input to involuntary systems such as the heart and digestion

Question 7

What are the 3 Functions of the Nervous System?

Answer 7

Question 8

Autonomic is divided into sympathetic and prasympathetic nervous systems. What does each do?

Answer 8

Sympathetic System- increases activation to prep for activity

Parasympathetic System- decreases activation during rest and recovery

Question 9

Functional unit of the nervous system

Answer 9

Neuron

Question 10

Transmits nerve impulses from CNS to effector sites

Answer 10

Motor (efferent) neurons

Question 11

Respond to stimuli; transmit nerve impulses from effector sites to CNS

Answer 11

Sensory (afferent) neurons

Question 12

Mechanoreceptors

Answer 12

• Sense mechanical information or body distortions such as: touch, pressure, stetching and motion
• Sends info to CNS
• CNS processes
• CNS sends info back to muscles to act

Question 13

Which sensory receptor will sense a muscle being stretched or lengthened?

Answer 13

Muscle Spindles

Question 14

Which sensory receptor senses causes the muscle to relax during muscle tension and prevents the muscle from excessive stress or injury?

Answer 14

Gogle Tendon Organ (GTOs)

Question 15

Joint Receptor

Answer 15

Responds to pressure, acceleration and decleration of the joints

Question 16

Provides shape and focus for bodies. Produces blood for the body and stores minerals. Growth, maturation, and functionality of _________ are greatly affected by posture, physical activity, and nutrition.

Answer 16

Question 17

The skeletal system is divide into two divisions: Axial and Appendicular.

The Axial System consist of _________?

Answer 17

Skull, rib cage, and vertebral column (torso and head)

Question 18

The skeletal system is divide into two divisions: Axial and Appendicular.

The Appendicular System consist of _________?

Answer 18

Upper and lower extremeties such as: arms, legs

Question 19

There are ________ bones in the skeletal system

Answer 19

206

Question 20

Skeletal system fuction

Answer 20

support, protect, and allow body movement

Question 21

Connects bone to bone; little blood supply; slow to heal

Answer 21

Ligaments

Question 22

___________ is the process of formation of bone. Old bone is broken down and removed by ________, new bone is laid down by cells called________?

Answer 22

Remoldeling, Osteoclasts, Osteoblast

Question 23

Arthrokinematics

Answer 23

Joint Motion

Question 24

Held together by joint capsule and ligaments. Joint with the greatest capacity for motion

Answer 24

Synovial joint

Question 25

No joint cavity, connective tissue, or cartilage; little to no movement.

Answer 25

Non-synovial joints

Question 26

What kind of muscle action is raising a dumbbell up against the direction of resistance?

Answer 26
