  1. 4. passes messages away from the cell body to other neurones, muscles or glands
  2. 6. covers axon of some neurones and helps speed neural impulses
  3. 8. a major excitatory neurotransmitter; involved in memory
  4. 9. the brain and the spinal cord
  5. 11. nerve cell-consists of many different parts
  6. 14. sends information from the body's tissues and sensory organs
  7. 15. cns internal communication

  1. 1. influences movement, learning, attention and emotion
  2. 2. affects mood, hunger, sleep and arousal
  3. 3. nervous system that arouses the body, mobilizing its energy in a stressful situation
  4. 4. enables muscle action, learning and memory
  5. 5. nervous system that controls the body's skeletal muscles
  6. 7. a major inhibitory neurotransmitter
  7. 10. helps control arousal and alertness
  8. 12. takes information from the CNS out to the body's tissues
  9. 13. receive messages from outer cells
  10. 16. impulse/Electrical signal traveling down the axon
  11. 18. the sensory and motor neurones that connect the rest of the central nervous system to the rest of the body
