PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
Across
- 5. Neuron carrying signals from CNS
- 10. Nerve arising from spinal cord
- 11. Receptor responding to temperature
- 14. Controls involuntary functions
- 15. Receptor detecting body position
- 16. Both sympathetic and parasympathetic control
- 18. All neural tissue outside CNS
- 20. Neuron connecting sensory to motor neurons
- 21. Nervous system of digestive tract
- 22. Cell detecting stimuli
- 23. “Rest and digest” division
Down
- 1. Cluster of sympathetic neurons
- 2. Nerve arising from brain
- 3. Controls voluntary skeletal muscles
- 4. Nerve network controlling secretions
- 6. Receptor responding to pain
- 7. Decrease in receptor response to sustained stimulus
- 8. “Fight or flight” division
- 9. Proprioceptor detecting muscle length
- 12. Cluster of parasympathetic neurons
- 13. Receptor responding to touch/pressure
- 17. Synapse between motor neuron and muscle
- 19. Neuron carrying signals to CNS
