29
Q

Functional cells of nervous tissue

A

Neurons

30
Q

Functions of neurons

A

Receive, process, transmit electrical signals

A

Nissl substance

32
Q

(Nerve Cell) processes the electrical information

A

Cell body

33
Q

(Nerve Cell) carry electrical signals toward the nerve cell body

A

Dendrites

34
Q

(Nerve Cell) carries electrical signals away from the nerve cell body

A

Axon (only 1 per cell)

35
Q

(Nerve Cell) where electrical signals are transferred from the axon terminal of the nerve to an effector cell

A

Synapse

36
Q

Multipolar neuron

A
  • many dendrites - one axon
37
Q

Bipolar neuron

A
  • one dendrite - one axon
38
Q

Unipolar neuron

A
  • one cell process from which branches a single axon and single dendrite
39
Q

What surrounds neurons in the PNS?

A
  • satellite cells - Schwann cells
40
Q

What forms myelin in the (1) CNS and (2) PNS?

A
  1. Oligodendrocytes - wrap cell process around axon 2. Schwann cell - wraps itself around the axon
41
Q

Nodes of Ranvier

A

Transmission signal jumps from node to node which is why conduction is faster with myelination

42
Q

____ surround axons.

A

Endoneurium

43
Q

____ surrounds clusters of axons forming fascicles.

A

Perineurium

44
Q

_____ surrounds several nerve fascicles.

A

Epineurium

45
Q

Parts of the chemical synapse

A
  1. Presynaptic knob 2. Synaptic cleft 3. Presynaptic membrane 4. Post-synaptic membrane
46
Q

Synaptic vesicles in the presynaptic knob contain (1) ______ which is released into the (2) ________ by (3) ________. Neurotransmitters bind to receptors on the (4) ________. This binding (5) ____________.

A
  1. Neurotransmitter 2. Synaptic cleft 3. Exocytosis 4. Post-synaptic membrane 5. Stimulates the post-synaptic cell

48
Q

A

Synaptic cleft

49
Q

Every ____ muscle cell receives an axon terminal.

A

Skeletal

50
Q

Steps of muscle contraction

A
  1. Nerve impulse stimulates release of Acetylcholine (example) into the synaptic cleft. 2. ACH stimulates changes in the sarcolemma that excite the muscle fiber. This stimulus is carried down the T-tubules to initiate fiber contraction. 3. Enzymes in the synaptic cleft break down ACH and limit its action to single muscle twitch.
