2.

Noah and Lily are studying the Law of Specificity of Nervous Energy. They learn that it states that

a)

The stress used to stretch or compress a body is proportional to the strain experienced

b)

The excitation of a receptor always gives rise to the same sensation regardless of the nature of the stimulus

c)

The anterior spinal nerve roots are motor and posterior nerve roots are sensory

d)

If stimulation is sufficiently increased, motor reaction is manifested on both sides

3.

Sophia and Liam are studying anatomy. They learn that the principle which states that a nerve trunk that supplies a joint also supplies the muscles of the joint and skin over the insertions of the muscles is called

a)

Hilton’s law

b)

The law of Generalization

c)

Weber’s law

d)

The law of Temporal Summation

4.

Abigail noticed that when she practiced a specific piano piece repeatedly, she could play it more smoothly over time. This is an example of which principle?

a)

When an impulse passes through a specific set of neurons to the exclusion of others, it tends to take the same course on future occasions

b)

If a mild irritation is applied, the movement will take on one side only, on the side that has been irritated

c)

The sensitivity of the sensory system to differences depends on the absolute strength of the stimuli

d)

When the irritation becomes very intense, it radiates to all parts of the spinal cord causing a general contraction of all muscles
