1 The basic building blocks of the nervous system are . 2 brief electrical charge that travels down the axon 3 junction between the axon tip of the sending neuron & the dendrite or cell body of the receiving neuron is . 4 natural, opiate-like neurotransmitters linked to pain control & to pleasure. 5 The peripheral nervous system is connect to your brain and your brainstem, which is also known as . 6 When excitatory signals minus inhibitory signals exceed a minimum intensity, called the , they trigger an action potential. 7 the sensory & motor neurons that connect the central nervous system to the rest of the body 8 division of the peripheral nervous system that controls the body’s skeletal muscles 9 part of the peripheral nervous system that controls the glands & muscles of the internal organs 10 division of the autonomic nervous system that arouses the body, mobilizing its energy in stressful situations 11 simple, automatic, inborn response to a sensory stimulus, such as the knee-jerk response 12 What’s this? The is a extension of a neuron, ending in branching terminal fibers, through which messages pass to other neurons or to muscles or glands ????????? 13 What are the bushy, branching extensions of a neuron that receive messages & conduct impulses toward the cell body? 14 What are the chemical messengers that traverse the synaptic gaps between neurons. (Don’t be specific.) 15 The neurotransmitter that enables learning & memory & also triggers muscle contraction. (Be specific.) 16 neural “cables” containing many axons 17 body’s speedy, electrochemical communication network, consisting of all the nerves of the peripheral & central nervous system Hint: its about the big picture. 18 Cortex at the front of the parietal lobes that registers & processes body touch & movement sensations 19 area at rear of frontal lobes that controls voluntary movements 20 areas of the cerebral cortex that are not involved in primary motor or sensory functions; rather, they are in higher mental functions such as learning, remembering, thinking, & speaking 21 controls’ language expression—an area of the frontal lobe, usually in the left hemisphere, that directs the muscle movements involved in speech. 22 portion of cerebral cortex lying roughly above the ears; includes auditory areas, each of which receives auditory info primarily from the opposite ear 23 What’s this? portion of cerebral cortex lying at back of head; includes the visual areas, which receive visual info from the opposite visual field 24 What is the orange lobe? portion of cerebral cortex lying at the top of the head & toward the rear; receives sensory input for touch & body position 25 What’s this? portion of the cerebral cortex lying just behind the forehead; involved in speaking & muscle movements, & in making plans & judgments 26 What’s this? brain’s sensory switchboard, located on top of the brainstem; directs messages to the sensory receiving areas in the cortex & transmits replies to the cerebellum & medulla What’s this? 27 neural structure lying below the thalamus; it directs several maintenance activities (eating, drinking, body temp), helps govern the endocrine system via the pituitary gland, & is linked to emotion 28 2 lima bean-sized neural clusters that are components of the limbic system & are linked w/ emotion What is this? 29 This thingy… the large band of neural fibers connecting the 2 brain hemispheres & carrying messages between them 30 What is this? oldest part & central core of the brain, beginning where the spinal cord swells as it enters the skull; the is for automatic survival functions 31 intricate fabric of interconnected neural cells that covers the cerebral hemispheres; the body’s ultimate control and infoprocessing center 32 “little brain” attached to the rear of the brainstem; its functions include processing sensory input & coordinating movement output & balance What is this?
