4. 5. Subdivision of the efferent division that transmits action potentials to smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, or glands; includes sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions.

• afferent division

• Consists of the brain and spinal cord

• autonomic nervous system

• Transmits action potentials from sensory organs to CNS

• somatic nervous system

• Nerves and ganglia outside the CNS

• peripheral nervous system

• Subdivision of the efferent division that transmits action potentials to smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, or glands; includes sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions.

• central nervous system

• Subdivision of the efferent division that transmits action potentials from the CNS to skeletal muscle only

Match the following.

• cell body

• Long cell process from the cell body; conducts action potentials.

• myelin sheath

• Usually receives information and transmits it to the cell body.

• dendrite

• Location of the nucleus and source of information for protein synthesis.

• axon

• Insulating layer of cells around an axon.

• collateral axon

• Branch of an axon.
