Answer 1

Cell body(organelles), dendrite(receives info) and axon (maintain shape)

Question 2

What do dendrites and cell body provide?

Answer 2

Receptive surfaces

Question 3

What are the 3 major neurons (structually)

Answer 3

Multipolar neurons(found within CNS)
Bipolar neurons (some in sensory neurons)
Unipolar neurons (Mainly in sensory neurons)

Question 4

Where are interneurons and what do they do?

Answer 4

In the brain or spinal cord
They’re multipolar
Link other neurons from one part of brain or spinal cord to another

Question 5

What are the 3 major neurons (functionally)

Answer 5

Sensory neurons
Interneurons
Motor neurons

Question 6

What does sensory neurons do?

Answer 6

Impulses from peripheral body part into brain or spinal cord (unipolar or bipolar)

Question 7

What does motor neurons do?

Answer 7

Conduct impulses out of brain or spinal cord to effectors
(multipolar)
Control muscle contraction and secretin of glands
