NAME____________________________________________ Period_____________ NERVOUS SYSTEM WORKSHEET 1. The diagram below is of a nerve cell or neuron. Add the following labels to the diagram: Axon Myelin sheath Cell body Dendrites Muscle fibers Axon terminals 2. Color in the diagram as suggested below. Axon - purple Axon Terminals – orange Myelin sheath – yellow Cell body – blue Dendrites – green Muscle fibers - red 3. There are three different kinds of neurons or nerve cells. Match each kind with its function. A. Motor neuron B. Sensory neuron C. Relay neuron; Kind of neuron Function The nerve cell that carries impulses from a sense receptor ................................... .................................... to the brain or spinal cord. The nerve cell that connects sensory and motor neurons The nerve cell that transmits impulses from the brain ..................................... or spinal cord to a muscle or gland 3. Match the descriptions in the table below with the terms in the list. A. Synapse B. Axon C. Myelin sheath D. Nerve impulse E. Sense receptor F. Response; G. Reflex H. Cell body I. Dendrite J. Nerve K. Neurotransmitter L. Axon terminal Term Description .............................. 1. The long fiber that carries the nerve impulses. .............................. 2.
