Structure of the Nervous system puzzle
Across
- 3. contain the nucleus of neuron (use space between the two words)
- 4. kind of neurons which carry impulses away from the brains and spinal cord to gland or muscle which result in a response.
- 6. potential a nerve impulse is an electric charge
- 7. a chemical that diffuses across a synapse
- 13. kind of neurons send impulses from receptors in the skin and sense organs to the brain and spinal cord.
- 14. kind of neurons found in spinal cord and brain
- 15. A nerve pathway that consists of a sensory neuron an interneuron and a motor neuron(use space between the two words).
Down
- 1. another name for a nerve impulse (use space between the two words).
- 2. forms an insulating layer around the axon.
- 5. receive and conduct the impulses to the cell body.
- 7. specialized cells that are organized to form complex networks.
- 8. any thing that causes a person to react.
- 9. the minimum stimulus to causes an action potential to be produced.
- 10. carries the nerve impulse from the cell body to other neurons and muscles.
- 11. a small gap exists between the axon of one neuron and the dendrite of another neuron.
- 12. situation when there are more sodium ions(Na+) outside that cell than inside the cell.
