Nervous system
Across
- 2. functional and structural unit of the nervous system
- 4. when the resting membrane potential is re-established after an action potential was generated
- 5. transformation of impulses into electrical signals
- 7. sensation/stimulus/environmental factor
- 10. this gate pumps out of the axon 3Na per 2K it pumps inside the axon. This gate maintains the resting membrane potential
- 12. an example of stimulus or environmental factor
- 13. the longest extension of neurons that sends or propagates impulses
Down
- 1. part of the neurons where the impulses or sensations are received
- 3. electrical signals
- 6. Brain and spinal cord, the center of integration of sensations
- 8. neurons communicate with each other via this space (the synaptic space)
- 9. both nerves coming in and exiting the central nervous system
- 11. When the resting membrane potential is altered. It is the moment when an action potential is generated
