These are grouped & bundled
as cables that shoot message
back & forth along our
nerves.
CATEGORY 2 - $200
What are
neurons/axons?
CATEGORY 2 - $300
This is part of our
peripheral nervous
system; it controls our
voluntary and skeletal
muscles.
CATEGORY 2 - $300
What is the
somatic nervous
system?
CATEGORY 2 - $400
This part of our PNS arouses,
alarms and enrages.
It puts your body into “Fight
or Flight Mode.”

What is the
Sympathetic NS?
CATEGORY 2 - $500
CATEGORY 2 - $500
Name the three types of
neurons and explain the
functions of each.
CATEGORY 2 - $500
What are
Sensory neurons - gather and send info to the CNS
Motor Neurons – sends messages from the CNS to
the body’s tissues and muscles
Inter Neurons – communicate between the sensory
neurons and motor neurons
CATEGORY 3 - $100
This is the master gland
that regulate all others.
CATEGORY 3 - $100
What is the
pituitary gland?
CATEGORY 3 - $200
This gland is located
in the neck and
regulates a persons
metabolism.

Thyroid gland?
CATEGORY 3 - $300
This gland is located on the
right and left side of the body
and is responsible for putting
adrenaline into the bloodstream.

brain responsible for
communicating
between the
hemispheres.

What is the
corpus callosum?
CATEGORY 4 - $200
This is the area between
two neurons where
neurotransmitters are shot
across.
CATEGORY 4 - $200
What is the
synaptic gap?
CATEGORY 4 - $300
This is the neural
impulse or message
that travels down the
neuron and causes it
to fire.
CATEGORY 4 - $300
What is an action
potential?
CATEGORY 4 - $400
This is the process by
which neurotransmitters
are reabsorbed by the
terminal fibers.
CATEGORY 4 - $400

functions.
CATEGORY 4 - $500
CATEGORY 5 - $100
This is the outermost
layer of the brain,
responsible for higher
order thnking.
CATEGORY 5 - $100
What is the
cerebral cortex?
CATEGORY 5 - $200
This acts as a
sensory relay
station, sending and
receiving sensory
info like vision,
taste, touch,

Explain the differences
between the left & right
Hemispheres.
CATEGORY 5 - $500
Left Hemisphere Tasks – local view
Handles verbal and speech material, like encoding and
syntax some logic and writing, superior at judging time,
math, rhythm & coordinating complex movements like
those associated with speech
Mainly involved in analysis and processing information
sequentially
Right Hemisphere Tasks – global view
Can produce only basic speech and numbers
Deals with objects in space, recognizing patterns, faces,
and melodies, putting together a puzzle and drawing a
picture, some mathematical reasoning
Helps express emotions and detect emotions of others
Chances are these people will be better at nonverbal
activities, specializes in imagery
Processes material simultaneously and holistically
Explain two ways in
which the brain can be
imaged.
MRI Magnetic scans reveal brain structures
and look for tissue damage or disease.
EEG records electrical activity along the scalp
to map brain communication.
PET imaging test w/ a radioactive substance
to look for disease or injury in the brain.
fMRI (functional MRI) detecting the changes
in blood oxygenation and flow that occur in
response to neural activity.
