Neurons

Question 1

Dendrites

Answer 1

Transfer electrical impulse signals from the cell body to the synapse

Question 2

Nucleus

Answer 2

Contains cells DNA

Question 3

Soma

Answer 3

The cell body which contains most of the cells organelles

Question 4

Axon

Answer 4

Sends electrical impulses to neighbouring neurons

Question 5

Myelin sheaths

Answer 5

Cover the axon and works like insulation to help keep electrical signals, allowing axons to move more quickly

Question 6

Synapses

Answer 6

Receive electrical impulses from neighbouring neurons

Question 7

Sensory neurons

Answer 7

Found in receptors such as eyes, ears, tongue and skin, carry nerve impulses to the spinal cord and brain.
These are then translated to sensations

Question 8

Relay neurons

Answer 8

Found between sensory input and motor output response.

-found in the brain and allow sensory and motor neurons to communicate

Question 9

Motor neurons

Answer 9

Found in CNS and control muscle movements.

When motor neurons are stimulated they release neurotransmitters that bind receptors on muscles to trigger a response.
