Neurons, The Nervous System, and the Endocrine System
Across
- 2. efferent nerve
- 4. includes 3 types: sensory, motor, and inter
- 7. when a neuron can't have another action potential
- 8. examples include epinephrine and norepinephrine
- 9. damages myelin and nerve fibers
- 10. controls homeostasis, metabolism and more body functions
- 12. intersection between axon tip of sending neuron and dendrite or cell body
- 15. when this happens, a chemical message is sent to neighboring neurons
- 18. positice charged ions rush out and negative charged ions come in
- 19. another word for skeletal nervous system
- 21. also called an action potential
Down
- 1. includes the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system
- 3. examples include serotonin and dopamine
- 5. can be removed 3 ways: diffusion, degradation, and reuptake
- 6. example includes Botulism
- 11. positive charged ions come in and negative charged ions rush out
- 13. neural impulses are always the same strength-weak stimuli don't produce weak impulses
- 14. afferent nerve
- 16. produced by many diferent types of glands to maintain the function of the endocrine system
- 17. located in the axon terminals
- 20. example includes Oxycodone
