Neurons, The CNS, and the Endocrine System
Across
- 3. Exists to perform three tasks and is essential for forming the nervous system
- 6. Decreases the likelihood a neuron will undergo action potential
- 9. includes the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems in order to function
- 11. When a neuron impulse either occurs or doesn't
- 12. gland arguably the most important part of the ES since it affects all other parts of the ES
- 14. imbalance can be caused by diseases, disorders, toxic exposure, or ignored health issues
- 15. When neurons are polarized
- 16. glands produces epinephrine and norepinephrine and also induces the flight or fight response
- 17. When neurons are depolarized
- 20. gland located in a specific place in the upper body and regulates important body functions like heartrate and blood pressure
- 21. these parts of the ES produce and regulate hormones
- 22. When a neurotransmitter is returned to the neuron vesicle
Down
- 1. the processes used to recycle neurotransmitters help to do what to the neurotransmitters?
- 2. also known as the skeletal system and rely on afferent and effererent neurons
- 4. Can slow down, stop or mimic neurotransmitters
- 5. The in-between passing of the sending axon tip and receiving dentrite
- 7. Most important for messages in the body and are separated into two types
- 8. messengers sent to organs and tissues
- 10. the internal balance of the body and a huge factor in natural bodily schedule
- 13. this controls the chemical balances of bodily systems
- 18. Increase the likelihood a neuron will undergo action potential
- 19. These can block or speed absence of neurotransmitters
