Across
  1. 2. Most common excitatory neurotranmitter.
  2. 3. These receptors sense changes in stimulus.
  3. 4. Form of muscle contractile strength regulation, increasing action potential firing frequency.
  4. 6. Slowly adapting, responds to lateral stretch.
  5. 9. Cluster of neuron cell bodies in PNS.
  6. 10. This reflex responds to high force generation by a muscle.
  7. 12. Slowly adapting, responds to light pressure.
  8. 13. Neurotransmitter involved in "toxic soup."
  9. 16. Rapidly adapting, responds to vibration.
  10. 17. Rapidly adapting, responds to tap.
  11. 20. These cells are innervated by sympathetic preganglionic neurons, release epinephrine and norepinephrine into the blood.
  12. 23. Pathway important in large muscle control.
  13. 26. Cells, such as adipocytes, are able to respond to sympathetic or parasympatetic signals despite being.
  14. 28. System through which sensation of pressure is relayed.
  15. 30. This structure with the thalamus composes the diencephalon.
  16. 31. Along with prostaglandins, component of toxic soup that's released from damaged cells.
  17. 32. Diminished sensation of pain.
  18. 35. Same side of body as a particular stimulus.
  19. 37. Motor neurons.
  20. 38. Several axons synapse on a single neuron.
  21. 39. Referred to as the common relay station.
Down
  1. 1. Reflex results in contraction of effected muscle.
  2. 2. This organ is a specialized stretch receptor.
  3. 5. Another name for nerve fiber.
  4. 6. Important for directing attention and alertness.
  5. 7. Released from mast cells.
  6. 8. Sensory neurons traveling toward brain.
  7. 11. Nervous system that consists of efferent motor neurons for tissue other than skeletal muscle.
  8. 14. Along with serotonin, component of toxic soup that's formed in blood.
  9. 15. Opposite side of body as a particular stimulus.
  10. 18. A broken neck will not likely destroy all of the communication pathways for this division of the ANS.
  11. 19. Pathway important for fine motor control.
  12. 21. System through which painful stimulus is relayed to brain.
  13. 22. Common exogenous opioid.
  14. 24. These receptors sense magnitude of stimulus.
  15. 25. These motor neurons innervate intrafusal muscle fibers.
  16. 27. Sensor for noxious stimulus.
  17. 28. One neuron innervates many others.
  18. 29. This system is associated with paravertebral ganglia.
  19. 33. Bundle of hundreds or thousands of nerve fibers.
  20. 34. Relating to the organs.
  21. 36. Cluster of neuron cell bodies in CNS.
