Nervous System

Question 1

What is the order of the Functions of the Nervous System?

Answer 1

Stimulus > Sensory Receptor > CNS > Integrative Function > Effectors > Response

Question 2

To what structures do dopamine receptors on the postsynaptic membrane transmit a nerve impulse upon the release of dopamine?

Answer 2

Postsynaptic Membrane (This is because dopamine receptors on the postsynaptic membrane transmit a nerve impulse upon the release of dopamine)

Question 3

What is the sequence in which an impulse travels through the components of the reflex pathway?

Answer 3

Sensory Neuron > Interneuron > Motor Neuron > Muscle Tissue

Question 4

Which aspect of nerve impulse transmission is demonstrated by the coordinated activity of two neurons leading to the stimulation of neuron receptors in the brain?

Answer 4

Summation (It involves the combined impact of multiple signals at a postsynaptic neuron, either through rapid succession from the same neuron (temporal summation) or simultaneous arrival from different neurons (spatial summation).
