Question
Answer
If the dorsal root ganglia of the spinal nerve were destroyed, a person would lose _____ related to that pathway.   sensory perception  
πŸ—‘
Which is not true of the dorsal nerve root?   t is also called the posterior root. It includes the spinal ganglion. It includes sensory fibers. Correct! All of the above are true.  
πŸ—‘
Which of the following statements is not true?   The major function of the parasympathetic division is to serve as an β€œemergency” system.  
πŸ—‘
Somatic motor and autonomic pathways share all of the following characteristics except:   number of neurons between central nervous system (CNS) and effector.  
πŸ—‘
Most effectors of the autonomic nervous system are dually innervated by sympathetic and parasympathetic neurons. True or False   True  
πŸ—‘
Impulses sent over which of the following tracts could result in voluntary movement, especially of the hands, fingers, feet, and toes of the opposite side?   Lateral corticospinal  
πŸ—‘
Norepinephrine is liberated at:   most sympathetic postganglionic nerve endings.  
πŸ—‘
Acetylcholine can stimulate _____ receptors.   nicotinic  
πŸ—‘
Which of the following is not true of the knee jerk reflex?   It is a flexor reflex.  
πŸ—‘
A mixed nerve is one that:   carries both sensory and motor fibers.  
πŸ—‘
Tic douloureux is a painful neuralgia of the _____ nerve.   trigeminal  
πŸ—‘
Normal infants will show the Babinski reflex up to the age of _____ years.   1.5-2  
πŸ—‘
Which of the following is a description of the principle of autonomic antagonism as it relates to the autonomic nervous system?   If sympathetic impulses tend to stimulate an effector, parasympathetic impulses tend to inhibit it.  
πŸ—‘
The knee jerk can be classified as a segmental reflex because:   impulses that mediate it enter and leave the same segment of the cord.  
πŸ—‘
The cerebellum performs all of the following functions except:   controls cardiac function.  
πŸ—‘
Which of the following is not associated with the oculomotor nerve?   Closing and opening of the eye (blink reflex)  
πŸ—‘
The spinal tract that is located in the side of the cord, originates in the brain, and terminates in the spinal cord is the _____ tract.   lateral corticospinal  
πŸ—‘
Cerebrospinal fluid circulates through the ventricles, into the central canal and _____, and is absorbed back into the blood.   subarachnoid space  
πŸ—‘
Which of the following is a correct statement?   There are 5 lumbar nerve pairs.  
πŸ—‘
How does a dually innervated autonomic effector differ from a singly innervated autonomic effector?   A dually innervated effector receives input from both sympathetic and parasympathetic pathways. A singly innervated autonomic effector receives input from only the sympathetic division.  
πŸ—‘
Sympathetic responses generally have widespread effects on the body because:   preganglionic fibers synapse with several postsynaptic fibers.  
πŸ—‘
The vomiting reflex is mediated by the:   medulla  
πŸ—‘
The parasympathetic and sympathetic divisions always act with a cooperative influence, and through summation of the impulses, the effect can be increased. True or False   False  
πŸ—‘
A child was frightened by a large dog. The pupils of the child’s eyes became dilated, and the heart and respiratory rates increased. These symptoms were caused by stimulation of:   the sympathetic nervous system.  
πŸ—‘
Which is the only plexus that contains fibers from the thoracic region of the spinal cord?   Brachial  
πŸ—‘
Once inside the sympathetic chain ganglion, the preganglionic fiber may:   synapse with a sympathetic postganglionic neuron. send ascending and/or descending branches through the sympathetic trunk to synapse with postganglionic neurons in other chain ganglia. pass through one or more ganglia without synapsing. Correct!  
πŸ—‘
If the ventral nerve root of a spinal nerve were destroyed, a person would lose _____ related to that pathway.   willed movement  
πŸ—‘
Propranolol is an example of a:   Beta Blocker, Drug used to treat irregular heartbeats, drug used to treat hypertension ( all of the above)  
πŸ—‘
Impulses from the _____ play a part in arousing or alerting the cerebrum.   thalamus  
πŸ—‘
Which of the following is not a function of the hypothalamus?   Regulation of motor activity  
πŸ—‘
Damage to the _____ nerve could make the diaphragm unable to function.   phrenic  
πŸ—‘
Nerves that innervate the floor of the pelvic cavity and some of the surrounding areas are found in the _____ plexus.   coccygeal  
πŸ—‘

πŸ—‘
Which of the following is not an example of sympathetic stimulation?   Constriction of the bronchioles  
πŸ—‘
The part of the brain that can directly influence or inhibit the release of hormones from the pituitary is the:   hypothalamus  
πŸ—‘
Which of the following is not true?   One bundle of nerve fibers (nerve roots) projects from each side of the spinal cord.  
πŸ—‘
All of the following cranial nerves are involved in proprioception except the:   vagus  
πŸ—‘
Audition is a function of the _____ lobe.   temporal  
πŸ—‘
Afferent nerves or fibers are found only in the _____ nervous system.   Sensory and Autonomic  
πŸ—‘
Nerve impulses over the _____ nerve cause increased peristalsis and decreased heart rate.   vagus  
πŸ—‘
All of the following are examples of parasympathetic stimulation except:   increased heart rate.
