Lab 9 Terms and Lesson Flashcards
What is the organization of nerves?
Axons and their myelin sheaths are covered by Endoneurium. A bundle of axons covered by Endoneurium makes a fascicle which is covered Perineurium. A bundle of fascicles covered by Perineurium is covered by Epineurium to make a Spinal Nerve
Define Epineurium
Surrounds whole nerve
Define Perineurium
Surrounds each fascicle
Define Endoneurium
Covers myelinated and unmyelinated axons

Identify the 12 cranial nerves
What are reflexes?
- Rapid, involuntary motor responses to environmental stimuli detected by sensory receptors
- Usually protective, fast simple circuits
- Cerebral decision making not required to initiate the reflex. Aware of the reflex because sensory receptors send signals to the brain
- If unaware, likely an autonomic reflex
How does the reflex arc work?
What are the four classifications of reflexes?
- Site of integration-
- Cranial vs. spinal
- Effector involved-
- Somatic vs. autonomic
- Number of synapses
- Monosynaptic vs. polysynaptic
- Site of stimulus vs. effector
- Ipsilateral vs. contralateral vs. bilater
What is the difference between monosynaptic vs. polysynaptic
If afferent and efferent neurons are directly connecting (monosynaptic) or if afferent, interneurons, and efferent neurons are connected (polysynaptic)
What is the difference between Ipsilateral, contralateral, and bilateral?
- Ipsilateral: Stimulus and reflex happen on the same side of the body
- Contralateral: Stimulus and reflex happen on opposite sides of the body
- Bilateral: Stimulus happens and the reflex happens on both sides (ex. gagging)
What is the transition of cranial nerves on the models?
What is the difference between cranial reflex and spinal reflex?
- Cranial reflex - reflex is integrated at the level of the brain. Cranial nerves
- Spinal reflex - reflex is integrated at the level of the spine. Spinal nerves
