Nervioso

Question 1

Discrete, granular clumps of rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and ribosomes scattered throughout nerve cell bodies and dendrites. Because ribosomes contain negatively charged RNA, Nissl bodies are basophilic.

Answer 1

Cuerpos de Nissl

Question 2

Morfología de neuronas motoras

Answer 2

Multipolares

Question 3

Morfología de neuronas sensoriales

Answer 3

Pseudounipolares

Question 4

They are characterized as having a single axon that emerges from the soma and divides into two branches: one that extends from the sensory receptors to the soma and another that transmits information from the soma to the central nervous system (CNS).

Answer 4

Pseudounipolar - general sensory neurons

*These neurons lack dendrites. General senses refer to senses that do not have a specific organ devoted to them, such as pain, temperature, touch, pressure, vibration, and proprioception.

Question 5

Small cells that form a circumferential ring around nerve somas. They function to provide support for neurons and assist in regulating the external chemical environment.

Answer 5

Satellite cells

Question 6

In the peripheral nervous system (PNS), the plasma membrane is derived from … whereas in the central nervous system (CNS), the plasma membrane is derived from …

Answer 6

Schwann cells, oligodendrocytes.

Question 7

What is myelin sheath made of?

Answer 7

It consists of densely packed layers of plasma membrane, a lipid bilayer, that contains transmembrane proteins and the concentric layers are densely packed

Question 8

Stain used to visualiza individual axons in a peripheral nerve

Answer 8

azul de toluidina

Question 9

Función de la célula de Schwann

Answer 9

Permite que los impulsos electricos viajen rápidamente a través de una célula nerviosa
