2.61 Neurons and Nervous System Quiz

Chemicals, like Dopamine and Acetylcholine, that are used by neurons to send messages

• Neurotransmitter

• Autonomic Nervous System

• Synapse

• Central Nervous System

Controls all the automatic functions of the body like heart beating and eyes dilating

• Autonomic Nervous System

• Sympathetic Nervous System

• Central Nervous System

• Neurotransmitter

The gap between Axon Terminal Buttons of 1 neuron and the Dendrites of the next neuron

• Synapse

• Parasympathetic Nervous System

• Sympathetic Nervous System

• Central Nervous System

Consists of the Brain and Spinal Cord

• Central Nervous System

• Parasympathetic Nervous System

• Sympathetic Nervous System

• Autonomic Nervous System

Triggers the Fight or Flight response in your body; Heart beats faster, breathing increases, etc.

• Sympathetic Nervous System

• Parasympathetic Nervous System

• Autonomic Nervous System

• Neurotransmitter

Calms the body after the Fight or Flight response

• Parasympathetic Nervous System

• Sympathetic Nervous System

• Autonomic Nervous System

• Central Nervous System

Of the following, which comes FIRST in the steps of Neural Transmission?

• a neuron at RESTING POTENTIAL receives an incoming message

• an electrical impulse leaves the cell body and travels down the AXON

• electrical activity inside the neuron builds up until it reaches the THRESHOLD

• the impulse tells the neuron to release chemical NEUROTRANSMITTERS to the next neuron

Of the following, which comes SECOND in the steps of Neural Transmission?

• a neuron at RESTING POTENTIAL receives an incoming message

• an electrical impulse leaves the cell body and travels down the AXON

• electrical activity inside the neuron builds up until it reaches the THRESHOLD

• the impulse tells the neuron to release chemical NEUROTRANSMITTERS to the next neuron

• an electrical impulse leaves the cell body and travels down the AXON

• electrical activity inside the neuron builds up until it reaches the THRESHOLD

• the impulse tells the neuron to release chemical NEUROTRANSMITTERS to the next neuron
