Nervous System Review

What are the 3 primary functions of the nervous system?

• sensory input, integration, and motor output.

• Vision, hearing, taste
• Memory, learning, decision-making
• Digestion, circulation, respiration

What are the two main divisions of the nervous system?

• Central nervous system and peripheral nervous system
• Sensory nervous system and motor nervous system
• Upper nervous system and lower nervous system
• Brain nervous system and spinal nervous system

What are the main components of the central nervous system?

• brain and spinal cord
• stomach and intestines
• liver and kidneys
• heart and lungs

What are the main components of the peripheral nervous system?

• Bones and muscles
• Blood vessels and lymph nodes
• Brain and spinal cord
• Nerves outside the central nervous system and ganglia

What's the difference between the sensory and motor divisions of the peripheral nervous system?

• The sensory division carries information from the body to the central nervous system, while the motor division carries information from the central nervous system to the body.
• The sensory division is responsible for transmitting pain signals, while the motor division is responsible for transmitting pleasure signals.
• The sensory division controls voluntary movements, while the motor division controls involuntary movements.
• The sensory division carries information from the central nervous system to the body, while the motor division carries information from the body to the central nervous system.

What are the two cell types in the nervous tissue?

• Red blood cells and white blood cells
• Muscle cells and bone cells
• Skin cells and hair cells
• Neurons and neuroglial cells

What are neurons?

• Neurons are a type of rock formation found in caves.
• Neurons are nerve cells.

• Neurons are small insects that live in colonies.
• Neurons are types of plants found in tropical rainforests.

What is neuroglia?

• Type of neurotransmitter
• Insulated, protective, and supportive cells of the nervous system

• A type of brain tumor
• Muscle tissue in the brain

What are the three types of neurons?

• Happy neurons, sad neurons, and angry neurons
• Red neurons, blue neurons, and green neurons
• Front neurons, back neurons, and side neurons
• Sensory neurons, motor neurons, and interneurons

Describe the sensory neuron.

• Responsible for processing information in the brain
• Transmits sensory information from the body to the central nervous system
• Transmits motor information from the central nervous system to the body
• Connects the brain to the spinal cord
