The brain and the spinal cord are part of the ​ (a)  

• central nervous system
• peripheral nervous system

The nerves are part of the ​ (a)  

• peripheral nervous system
• central nervous system

Label the cell body of the neuron

Match the following types of neuroglia to their proper function

• Microglia

• star-shaped cells that anchor small blood vessels to neurons

• Schwann Cells

• form myelin sheath on axons in the CNS

• Astrocytes

• form myelin sheaths on axons in the PNS

• Oligodendrocytes

• phagocytes

  remove dead cells and pathogens

​ (a)   conduct information to the spinal cord and brain whereas ​ (b)   conduct impulses away from the brain and spinal cord to the muscles and glands.

• Sensory neurons
• motor neurons

Match the tissues and fluids to their proper definition

• gray matter

• contains myelinated axons

• meninges

• cushions the CNS

• cerebrospinal fluid

• contains cell bodies and nonmyelinated axons

• white matter

• membranes covering the brain and spinal cord

The medulla oblongata, pons, and midbrain make up the​ (a)  

• brain stem
• diencephalon
• cerebellum
• cerebrum

The hypothalamus and thalamus make up the​ ​ (a)  

• cerebellum
• cerebrum
• diencephalon
• brain stem

RAS (Reticular Formation) arouses the cerebrum making it responsible for what?

• Motor control
• Memory formation
• Emotional regulation
• Wakefulness and alertness

All these "centers" are functions of the brainstem except?

• emotion center

• cardiac center

• respiratory center

• vasomotor center

• reflex center
