Across
  1. 2. controls all body functions by sending and receiving messages up and down the spinal cord through the nerves
  2. 5. Neuron A nerve that carries impulses from the brain or spinal cord to a muscle or gland
  3. 6. Lobe of the cerebrum that is responsible for auditory, memory
  4. 7. A gap that separates the axon of one neuron and the dendrite of the next neuron
  5. 9. Nerve that carries impulses to the brain or spinal cord
  6. 11. Connector nerve cells that carry messages between sensory and motor neurons
  7. 12. brings electrical signals towards the soma
  8. 14. Lobe of the cerebrum that is responsible for visual processing
  9. 17. Lobe of the cerebrum that is responsible for reasoning, planning
  10. 18. A pathway in which your brain sends and receives information about what is happening in and around the body
  11. 19. Specialized cells that carry messages through an electrochemical process
  12. 20. Lobe of the cerebrum that is responsible for movement, balance
  13. 22. Carries messages to and from parts of the body to the central nervous system through nerves
  14. 23. The message carried by neurons is called a nerve.
Down
  1. 1. Covers the axon and works like an insulator to keep the signal inside the cell
  2. 2. Connects brain to spinal cord controls hunger, body temperature, blood pressure and breathing
  3. 3. Made up of the brain and spinal cord
  4. 4. Makes sure processes in your body work automatically
  5. 8. Largest part of the brain that uses information from our senses to tell us what is going on and how to respond
  6. 10. Located under the cerebrum in the back of the brain and controls balance and complex actions like walking
  7. 13. Sends information through peripheral nerves to your central nervous system
  8. 15. Takes information away from the soma
  9. 16. An involuntary response to something, which happens quickly use to protect your body from harm
  10. 21. Neuron cell body
