Nervous System and Neurons

Which way does an impulse travel

• From dendrite to axon and out axon terminal

• From axon to axon and out dendrite terminal

• From axon to dendrite and out axon terminal

• From cell body to dendrite and out axon terminal

How is a message delivered from the "sending" neuron to the "receiving" axon?

• sympathetic nerves

• hormones

• medulla oblongata

• neurotransmitters

What is a neuron?

• A ron of the neu variety

• A cell in the heart

What are the 2 major divisions of the peripheral nervous system (PNS)?

• Sensory & Motor

• Peripheral & Central

• Somatic & Autonomic

• Brain & Spinal Cord

What is NOT part of the peripheral nervous system (PNS)?

• axons

• sensory receptors

• spinal cord

• motor neurons

What is the spinal chord?

• The main pathway for information connecting the brain and peripheral nervous system

• The part of our nervous system that gives the rest of the body structure

• A series of bones that are made up of vertebrae and cartilage

• A small organ that stretches from the brain to the base of the neck

The Nervous System:

• A system that makes you nervous

• A complicated system that includes the brain and your heart

• A magical place in the sky (CLICK ME FOR A SURPRISE!)

• A complex system of nerves that sends messages throughout the body
