Lecture8: Types Of Neurons And Nerve Endings Flashcards
Mention an example of direct stimulus?
Photoreceptors in retina
What do the nissl bodies appear as in the cytoplasm?
Basophilic granules
Where are the nissl bodies distributed?
Over the cell body, and dendrites
What are the 2 things transported via the anterograde transport system?
Mitochondria and neurotransmitter vesicles
What motor protein transports the subjects of the anterograde transport system?
Motor Protein Kinesin
Which transport system carries molecules for recycling?
Retrograde
What motor protein carries the content for recycling?
Dyenin
What is the function of axons?
Conduction of impulses away from the cell body
Does Axon have nissl?
No
What covers the Axon?
Myelin or neurilemma
What is the function of the dendrite?
Impulse conduction towards cell body
Are nissl present in dendrite?
Yes
Where are nerve cell bodies only present?
Ganglia
Which type of neuron Carries impulses from receptors to the CNS?
Sensory neurons
Which type of neurons Carries impulses from CNS to effector organs?
Motor neuron
