Neural Tissue
Across
- 4. controls skeletal muscles, voluntary control, subconscious reflexes
- 5. ends of the axon that form synaptic terminals
- 8. sensory structures that detect change or respond to stimuli
- 9. where two cells communicate
- 11. sends messages from CNS to muscles, glands, etc
- 15. cytoplasm of the axon
- 16. slender, pass along info from other neurons
- 17. brings info to CNS from receptors
- 20. brain & spinal cord
- 21. neurons lack _______, meaning they can't do mitosis
Down
- 1. contains organelles, made of mitochondria, Rough ER, & ribosomes
- 2. receives the message
- 3. regulates smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, & glandular secretions, sympathetic & parasympathetic
- 6. sends the message
- 7. target organ which respond by doing something
- 10. all other nerves throughout the body
- 12. functional unit of the nervous system
- 13. plasma membrane of axon
- 14. neurofilaments, neurotubules, & neurofibrils
- 15. long cytoplasmic process, propagates action potentials
- 18. supporting cells, provide support for neural tissue, phagocytes, regulate interstitial fluid
- 19. large round nucleus with prominent nucleolus
