Where is the Cell body on the neuron diagram?

Where is the Axon on the neuron diagram?

Where is the Axon hillock on the neuron diagram?

Where is the Schwann cell on the neuron diagram?

Where is the Dendrite on the neuron diagram?

Sensory neurons carry information from ______ to the ________.

Provides nutrients to neurons, give synapsis structural support, and block toxic substances

Produce cerebrospinal fluid in brain and spinal cords

Scavenge and degrade dead cells, protecting the brain from invading micro organisms

From myelin sheaths around axons in the CNS

From myelin sheaths around axons in the PNS

Motor neurons carry information from ______ to the ________.

Transmit impulses away from cell body, vary in length, and the larger the diameter = the faster the conduction

Contain vesicles with neurotransmitters, separated from the next neuron or effector by the synthetic cleft, and has synthetic knob and synapsis within

There are 100s per cell, receptive side conduct impulses toward the cell body, and immense surface area for reception

Protects and insulates fibers, and also increases speed of transmission through a process called saltatory conduction

What is a neurotransmitter?

A site where action potential is converted into a chemical message

The entire junction between two neurons or a nerve and another structure

The space that separates a neuron and its target cell at a chemical synapse

Plasma membrane of the neuron

The control center that contains metabolic/biosynthesis

Why is the outer covering (neurilemma) of a neuron so important?

Conduct electrical impulses, cannot replicate, and have longevity

Produce myelin, can replicate but cannot conduct, and provide structural support
