6. Two lobes of the brain above the ear on either side of the head which are involved in hearing, comprehension, memory, and emotions
9. The basic cell of the nervous system; sends, processes, and receives neural impulses
10. a chemical compound that follows pain, pleasure, and memory
11. Gray, fatty cells that provide support, deliver impulses, produce myelin, and clean up waste products
13. Glands throughout the body that secrete hormones through the bloodstream
14. Portion of the ANS that takes action during stressful times by mobilizing energy
17. Part of the nervous system in which the brain and spinal cord are associated
19. Gap of space between the receiving end of a neuron and the sending end of another neuron
20. The creation of new neurons

2. Chemical compound that carries neural impulses from one neuron to another across synapses
3. Areas in the cerebral cortex that process information from other parts of the brain for acting, interpreting, and integrating.
4. Branch of peripheral nervous system controlling involuntary motor response through connections between sensory receptors and the CNS, smooth and cardiac muscle, and glands.
5. A long, tube-like structure that carries nerve impulses from one neuron to another
7. Soma; nucleus-containing part of a neuron that assists the neuron with functions
8. The part of the neuron made of branch-like fibers that receive impulses and then send them to the soma
12. Structures in the forebrain connected to emotions, memory, and physiological functions
15. Fatty insulation wrapped around the axon of a nerve cell that helps neural impulses to move faster as they cross the axon
16. A portion of the PNS connecting the CNS to receptors that control skeletal muscles
18. An automatic, biologically related response to a stimulus
