Involves the Sympathetic Nervous System and Parasympathetic Nervous System for polygraph.

Hear the question through the ear.
Message sent to the brain.
Unable to act because of taking the examination.
Sympathetic Nervous System activated.
Reactions are observed in tracings.

Question 4

Simplest Reflex Arc
Receptor

Answer 4

The sense organ that is receiving the stimulus.

Question 5

Simplest Reflex Arc
Sensory Neurons

Answer 5

The pathway for the message to be sent to the central nervous system (brain & spinal cord).

Question 6

Simplest Reflex Arc
Synapse

Answer 6

The evaluation of the received message.

Question 7

Simplest Reflex Arc
Motor Neurons

Answer 7

These are attached to the muscles, causing a response and activates the sympathetic nervous system.

Question 8

The measurement of the pressure in the arteries when the heart rests between beats.

Question 10

Systolic BP

Question 12

Diastole

Answer 12

Portion of the heartbeat cycle when the heart muscles have relaxed, and the heart chamber is filled with blood.

Question 13

Dicrotic Notch

Answer 13

Occurs between the systole and subsequent diastole of the waveform.

Question 14

Premature Ventricular Contraction (PVC)

Answer 14

Term used to define a ventricular contraction between two sinus cycles without a compensatory pause.

In other words, an irregular heartbeat when the heart contracts too soon.
