Nervous System & Action Potential Quiz

This system controls all body functions

• Circulatory system

• Nervous system

• Muscular system

The nervous system is formed by

• The brain and the central nervous system.

• The spinal cord and the brain.

• The cerebrum, cerebellum and spinal cord.

• The central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system.

The central nervous system (CNS) is formed by:

• The brain.

• The brain and the spinal cord.

• The cerebrum, cerebellum and spinal cord.

• the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system.

The orders from the central nervous system produce:

• sensitive nervous and motor nerves.

• Carry information to the muscles.

• Voluntary and involuntary movements.

The correct direction of the neural impulse within one neuron.

• Axon Terminal to Dendrite

• Dendrite to Axon Terminal

• Cell Body to Axon

• Axon Terminal to Cell Body

This part of the neuron receives chemical messages from the neurotransmitters of other neurons.

• Axon Terminal

• Dendrites

• Myelin Sheath

• Cell Body

The tiny gap between neurons where nerve impulses are sent from one neuron to another.  It is where communication occurs between an axon and dendrite

• synapse

• axon terminal

• impulse
