Neuron Structure

The long, fiber like part of a neuron which the cell sends information to receiving neurons

• axon 
• dendrite
• axon terminal
• gene

A network of branches coming from individual cells.  They carry information and electrical signals in the brain and nervous system

• axon
• axon terminal
• dendrite
• neuron

This insulating material forms a layer, around the axon of a neuron.  It enables electrical signals to travel down the axon at higher speeds.

• neuron
• myelin sheath
• dendrite
• neurotransmitter

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

Which is the following is represented by the letter B?

• cell body

Which is represented by the letter E?

• Axon

• Myelin sheath

• schwan cells

• terminal branches

Which is represented by the letter G?

• axon

• myelin sheath

• schwan cell

• terminal branches

This is made up of the brain and spinal cord

• Central Nervous System (CNS)

• Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)

• Autonomic nervous system

• Somatic nervous system

All the parts of the nervous system except the brain and spinal cord.

• Central Nervous System (CNS)

• Peripheral nervous system (PNS)

• Autonomic nervous system

• Somatic nervous system

What part of the neuron houses the nucleus?

• cell body

• axon terminal

• dendrites

• synapse
