2. An automatic, biologically related response to a stimulus
4. Soma; nucleus-containing part of a neuron that assists the neuron with functions
8. Portion of the ANS that takes action during stressful times by mobilizing energy
9. Glands throughout the body that secrete hormones through the bloodstream
12. Fatty insulation wrapped around the axon of a nerve cell that helps neural impulses to move faster as they cross the axon
13. a chemical compound that follows pain, pleasure, and memory
14. A long, tube-like structure that carries nerve impulses from one neuron to another
16. Two lobes of the brain above the ear on either side of the head which are involved in hearing, comprehension, memory, and emotions
18. Gray, fatty cells that provide support, deliver impulses, produce myelin, and clean up waste products
20. Branch of peripheral nervous system controlling involuntary motor response through connections between sensory receptors and the CNS, smooth and cardiac muscle, and glands.

1. Chemical compound that carries neural impulses from one neuron to another across synapses
3. Structures in the forebrain connected to emotions, memory, and physiological functions
5. The part of the neuron made of branch-like fibers that receive impulses and then send them to the soma
6. The basic cell of the nervous system; sends, processes, and receives neural impulses
7. Areas in the cerebral cortex that process information from other parts of the brain for acting, interpreting, and integrating.
10. A portion of the PNS connecting the CNS to receptors that control skeletal muscles
11. Part of the nervous system in which the brain and spinal cord are associated
15. The creation of new neurons
17. Part of the nervous system in which nerves and neurons connect the entire body to the CNS
19. Gap of space between the receiving end of a neuron and the sending end of another neuron
