The Nervous System
Across
- 2. Composed of Brain and Spinal Cord
- 4. cells that Wrap around a single nerve axon
- 6. Provide neurotransmitters
- 12. Insulation made of a fatty substance
- 13. Make the myelin sheath
- 15. Contain cell body, axon and dendrites
- 18. Small spider-like cells that engulf dead cells and bacteria
- 20. Rest and Repair
- 21. Bundles of nerve fibers in the CNS
- 22. Cluster of neuron cell bodies in the PNS
Down
- 1. Conducts impulses away from cell body
- 3. Fight or Flight
- 5. Bundles of nerve fibers in the PNS
- 7. Nerves that go to skeletal system under voluntary control
- 8. Conduct impulses towards the cell body
- 9. Nerves that Go to smooth and cardiac muscle under involuntary control
- 10. Star-shaped cells that protect blood brain barrier
- 11. Matter that Interprets sensory information from various parts of the body
- 14. Matter that conducts, processes and sends information
- 16. Gaps between adjacent Schwann cells (nodes of)
- 17. Cluster of neuron body cell bodies in the CNS
- 19. Outermost part of myelin sheath, essential for repair
- 20. Carries information to and from the CNS
