The sensory information from the eye is processed in the

• Frontal Lobe

• Occipital Lobe

• Temporal Lobe

• Parietal Lobe

The central sulcus seperates the

• Cerebrum from the Cerebellum

• Left hemisphere from the right hemisphere

• Frontal lobe from the parietal lobe.

• Temporal lobe from the frontal lobe

The sympathetic nervous systems

• increases the rate of digestion

• controls and regulates most body functions to slow down, conserve energy and relax

• controls and regulates the nerve reflex arc for rapid response of involuntary movement

• controls and regulates most body functions for stress and quick responses to danger

Motor Neurons that control voluntary movement are part of the

• Central nNervous System

• Autonomic Nervous System

• Somatic Nervous System

• Sympathetic Nervous System

Where does the interpretation and understanding of incoming sensory information from major sensory organ and the millions of receptors throughout the body

• mostly in the cerebellum

• mostly in the frontal lobe

• mostly behind the frontal lobe

• mostly in the spinal cord

Fine motor movement, balance posture and muscle memory is mostly controlled by

• cerebellum

• medulla oblongata

• sensory organs

• cerebral cortex

The most abundant cell types in the central nervous system cells provide support for and insulation between neuron found in the brains are

• glial cells

• rod cells

• interneurons

• motor neurons

While no one knows exactly, it’s safe to say humans have approximately how many nerves in the human body?

• 30-50

• 100-200

• 10,000 - 20,000
