- Movement of molecules across the blood-brain barrier involves
A. active transport requiring energy
B. carrier-mediated transport
C. both
D. neither
Jawab : C
Molecules also move across the blood-brain barrier by diffusion. Substance that cross the blood-brain barrier by diffusion include water and alcohol. D-glucose and large neutral amino acids are transported into the
brain by carrier-mediated transport. Active transport is used to move weak organic acids, halides, and extracellular K+ from the brain and cerebrospinal
fluid into plasma.

A. arcuate rftIcieus to median eminence
B. arcuate nucleus to posterior hypophysis
C. dorsomedial nucleus to posterior hypophysis
D. supraoptic nucleus to median eminence
E. supraoptic nucleus to posterior hypophysis
Jawab : A
The tuberohypophysial or tuberoinfundibular tract arises from the tuberal region (mainly the arcuate nucleus) and can be traced to the median eminence and infundibular stem.
