SHORT ANSWER
25. ANS:
Dendrites and axons are parts of a neuron. Dendrites receive signals and carry them toward the cell body.
Axons carry electrical impulses away from the cell body and toward other cells.

The brainstem controls some of the body’s most important functions, including breathing, and filters all
information going to and from the brain. These processes are essential to life, so the disruption of any of these
processes can cause death.

ESSAY
35. ANS:
The voltage across the plasma membrane of a resting neuron is the resting potential. If a neuron is stimulated,
positive ions rush across the plasma membrane, reversing the charge difference. The inside of the membrane
gains a positive charge, and the outside of the membrane gains a negative charge. This depolarization is called
the action potential. As the nerve signal passes, the positively charged ions flow out of the cell, and the resting
potential of the membrane is reestablished.
DIF: Average/Above average
OBJ: 28.2.3
NOT: core
36. ANS:
The cerebrum controls voluntary activities and higher thinking skills. The cerebellum controls coordination
and balance. The brainstem controls sleep, breathing, and helps coordinate movement. The thalamus sorts
information going to and coming from the cerebral cortex. The hypothalamus regulates hunger, thirst,
emotions, and body temperature.
DIF: Below average/Average
OBJ: 28.4.2
37. ANS:
The five general categories are pain receptors, thermoreceptors, mechanoreceptors, chemoreceptors, and
photoreceptors. Pain receptors are throughout the body except in the brain. Thermoreceptors are located in the
skin and some internal organs. Mechanoreceptors are found in skin and inner ears. Chemoreceptors are found
in the nose and taste buds. Photoreceptors are found in the eyes.
