Question
Answer
when can regeneration of axon occur   as long as cell body is not damaged  
🗑
synapses meet at   gland or muscle or other synapse  
🗑
electrical synapse   direct contact, smooth muscle, cardia muscle  
🗑
chemical synapse   space, pre and post synaptic neurons  
🗑
EPSP   NT binds to Na+= AP dipolarize  
🗑
calcium   causes vessicles to fuse  
🗑
synaptic cleft   space between synapses  
🗑
IPSP   NT binds to K+=no AP does not depolarize  
🗑
ICF-   more negative by K+ leaving  
🗑
NS   AP fast and ends fast  
🗑
ES   AP slower and last longer  
🗑
4 ways the synapse rids of excess NT   diffuse, breakdown by Ach, active transport, uptake  
🗑
temporal   continuous, are we there yet, until fire  
🗑
spacial   firing squad, one not enough, all firing maybe enough to send signal  
🗑
sub threshold   facilitated, getting ready to fire, but not enough, close to threshold not enough to fire  
🗑
damage   pressure, severe  
🗑
which NS regenerates   PNS  
🗑
what happens instead of regeneration in CNS   other neurons take over, re-ed  
🗑
MVA nn damage pressure causes what sensation   parasthesia  
🗑
wallerian degeneration   cut nn, schwann cells that wre myelinated nn now reabsorb damaged nn, form tube-axon stump grows into tube  
🗑
factors effecting wallerian degeneration   no scar tissue, must be clean cut  
🗑
microphage   pacman cells eat dead cells  
🗑
how to decrease scar tissue   US, ES, MT  
🗑
How are nn specific   specific nn for different sensations  
🗑
thalamus   low stimulus, ex clothes, Brains assistant, admin or CEO  
🗑
meisners corpuscles   light touch, pettrisage/merkels disc-mechanoreceptors  
🗑
merkels disk   in epidermis, responds to light touch, help to tell difference surface of objects,if press to hard to nn -turns off, overstimulated  
🗑
heavy touch   ruffinian end organs-deeper, DTM, rolfing/pacinain corpuscles, vibrating stimuli  
🗑
tickle   hypersensativity  
🗑
monomodal nn   Afiber, burn, sharp, acute, fast, mechanical=itch, tickle,pleasure, thermal=hot or cold  
🗑
corpuslces   capsules on nn  
🗑
free nn endings   no capsules/corpuslces  
🗑
how can medical history help find which type of nn is damaged   nn are specific to description of pain, monomodal Afiber=is burn, sharp, acute, fast/mechanical= tissue damage, itching, tickling, pleasure/thermal=tissue damage, hor to r cold/polymodal Cfiber=slow, chronic, dull, nagging, throbbing  
🗑
polymodal nn   Cfiber, unmyelinated, slow signal, chronic, slow pain, dull, nagging, throbbing, long lasting stimuli=prolonged sitting, chemicals from damaged tissue cause nagging pain  
🗑
pain   subjective, quantify, symptom or disease, originate in ST, chronic, acute  
🗑
chronic pain   healing pain, depressed people and may altar rehab  
🗑
acute pain   A fibers override chronic pain, may have both  
🗑
visceral pain   poorly localized, ab wall guarding  
🗑
embryotic   similiar cells  
🗑
cutaneous cut   sharp A fiber  
🗑
trigger point compression   override other pain  
🗑
functional unit in spine   3 parts, 2 vert and 1 disc  
🗑
natural splint   mm lock  
🗑
cranial nn   PNS  
🗑
SC   highway  
🗑
Plexus   PNS  
🗑
Nucleus   CNS  
🗑
UMN   pre-synaptic  
🗑
LMN   post-synaptic  
🗑
central canal   tiny canal in the middle, transport CSF  
🗑
SC Ant and Post   Ant fissure, post sulcus  
🗑
grey matter   butterfly in SC  
🗑
white matter   SC tracts, fasciculi  
🗑
tracts   ascending sensory, descending motor  
🗑
UE fasciculus   cuneatus, weblike bundle of axons  
🗑
LE fasciculus   gracilis cord (gracilis mm) bundle of axons  
🗑
fasciculus   same sensation, ex fine touch, fine pressure  
🗑
integrative function   interprets and compares to past experiences, decides course of action  
🗑
motor function   can be mm contraction or glandular secretion  
🗑
effectors   general name for anything having effect  
🗑
soma   body  
🗑
visceral   organ  
🗑
SNS   voluntary =skeletal mm  
🗑
ANS   involuntary = visceral smooth mm  
🗑
bones cover   most important organs  
🗑
efferent   effector  
🗑
parasympathetic   rest and repair  
🗑
sympathetic   flight or fight, instantaneously  
🗑
parasympathetic vs sympathetic   balance btw both, one should not dominate  
🗑
cell hierarchy-botton to top   epithelial tissue= covers, mm cells =contractions, neuron tells mm to contract  
🗑
to we create more nn cells   no, they do not divide after 6 months, same nn cells since then  
🗑
ribosomes   attach to endoplasmic reticulum  
🗑
axon send signal   away from cell body  
🗑
sciatic cell body   at spine, axon goes all the way down to the toe  
🗑
upper body nerves   larger, down arm  
🗑
divergent nerve path   wide dispersal of signals  
🗑
what is myelin made of   protein and lipids  
🗑
which cells repair   PNS  
🗑
axon hillock   part of cell body that connects to axon  
🗑
neuroglia   do not conduct electrical impulse, protect neuron only  
🗑
astrocytes   service to nn cells in CNS  
🗑
magocytes   schwann cells in the PNS clean up debris to repair nn  
🗑
CSF   like blood but does not have certain things, made from blood in ventricle in brain, ependymal cells reach out to capillaries and get whet they need to make CSF  
🗑
satellite cells   in PNS ganglia, unipolar  
🗑
ganglion   collection of cells bodies  
🗑
posterior root ganglia   group of cells clumps outside CNS  
🗑
nucleus   group of cells in CNS  
🗑
multipolar   most nn cells  
🗑
epithelial cells   visceral, secrete substance, organ connective =bone, mm=move, neurons=send messages  
🗑
how many different types of neurons   140  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
