6.2 Anatomy
Across
- 2. the degree to which a specified material conducts electricity, calculated as the ratio of the current density in the material to the electric field that causes the flow of current. It is the reciprocal of the resistivity
- 3. a period of time during which a cell is incapable of repeating an action potential.
- 6. unconscious motor reflexes relayed from the organs and glands to the CNS through visceral afferent signaling.
- 9. the process of depolarizing something or the state of being depolarized.
- 10. describes the way an electrical impulse skips from node to node down the full length of an axon
Down
- 1. an involuntary response to a stimulus
- 4. an action that is performed as a response to a stimulus and without conscious thought.
- 5. the process or act of restoring the polarized condition across the plasma membrane of a cell,
- 7. restrict the vibrations of (a transverse wave, especially light) wholly or partially to one direction.
- 8. a signal transmitted along a nerve fiber. It consists of a wave of electrical depolarization that reverses the potential difference across the nerve cell membranes.
