Q

What are the 2 parts of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) and explain

A

1) sympathetic-
- flight and fight responses (prepare for action)

2) parasympathetic-
- rest and digest (slowing organs down)

Every organ has both

A

Axon

20
Q

What are the branching at the end of the axon called?

A

Axon terminal branches

21
Q

What is a multipolar neuron?

A

Structural classification of neurons based on how many processes there are

A lot of processes

22
Q

What connects neurons together?

A

Interneurons

23
Q

What is a unipolar or pseudounipolar?

A

Single process connected to soma

24
Q

What are the function unipolar?

A

Sensory

25
Q

What is bipolar?

A

2 processes

One bringing in and other taking out

26
Q

What are the special sensory?

A

Seen in retina (light sensitive portion of the eye)

Olfactory (sense of smell) epithelium

27
Q

What is the cytoplasm?

A

Liquid (jelly like) inside of cell

28
Q

What is the nucleus?

A

Control center of cell

29

A

Inside of nucleus makes ribosomes

30
Q

What are the nissil bodies?

A

Packages of rRNA found in cytoplasm of neuron

Like roughendoplasmic (RER)

31
Q

What are organelles?

A

Little organ like structured that perform different functions

32
Q

What is the axon coming out of the axon called?

A

Collateral axon

33

What is it called where the axon is exposed?

A

Neurofibral node (node of Ranvier)

38
Q

What are the functions of multipolar?

A

Motor interneurons

39
Q

What are the functions of bipolar?

A

Special Sensory
