MD Lesson 2 Assessment

What connects the brain and the spinal cord?

• central nervous system
• brain stem
• peripheral nervous system
• parietal lobe

Answer explanation

Jupiter is a gas giant made primarily of hydrogen and helium. Unlike terrestrial planets that have solid surfaces, gas giants like Jupiter don't have a well-defined solid surface, allowing them to accumulate more mass in a gaseous form. This composition has allowed Jupiter to grow significantly larger than planets with solid surfaces.

What sends messages TO your brain?

• motor neurons
• sensory neurons
• peripheral nervous system
• central nervous system

Which lobe is responsible for sensing touch?

• parietal
• occipital
• temporal
• frontal

EMG and nerve conduction velocity tests check the:

• central nervous system
• peripheral nervous system
• all nervous systems
• health of the body overall

Which test would be done to find a brain tumor?

• EMG
• nerve conduction velocity test
• CSF analysis
• brain scan

The brain and spinal cord make up:

• central nervous system

What controls vision?

• temporal lobe
• frontal lobe
• occipital lobe
