front 1 Reticular Theory | back 1 parts of nervous system are all large, connected network |
front 2 Neuron Doctrine | back 2 nervous system is made of of a series of individual units |
front 3 membrane potential | back 3 difference between electrical charges between negative internal charge vs outside cell |
front 4 dendrites | back 4 information enters here |
front 5 ribosomes | back 5 mRNA -> proteins |
front 6 axon hillock | back 6 origin of action potential |
front 7 microtubules | back 7 motorlike proteins, transfer proteins from soma |
front 8 anterograde | back 8 soma -> terminal |
front 9 retrograde | back 9 terminal -> soma |
front 10 neurofilaments (interfilaments) | back 10 structure |
front 11 unipolar | back 11 soma has receiving and sending end, not in humans |
front 12 bipolar | back 12 single dendrite, single axon |
front 13 multipolar | back 13 most common, several dendrites, one axon |
front 14 sensory neuron | back 14 detects stimuli and pass information |
front 15 motor somatic neuron | back 15 skeletal muscle movement |
front 16 somatic automatic neuron | back 16 cardiac, glands, smooth muscle |
front 17 interneuron | back 17 no data |
front 18 Glia cells | back 18 other cells in the nervous system; accounts for 50% |
front 19 Astrocytes | back 19 star shaped, GFAP glial fibrillary acidic protein, maintains blood-brain barrier, uptake mechanism, that affects neurotransmitter concentration, synthesize trophic factors (helper molecules) |
front 20 triportite synapse | back 20 presynaptic, postsynaptic, and astrocyte |
front 21 oligodendrocytes | back 21 only in CNS, few branches, produces myelin for multiple sections |
front 22 schwann cells | back 22 only in PNS, myelinate single section of axon, function in regeneration of injured axons |
front 23 microglia | back 23 immune cells |
front 24 epedymial cells | back 24 line inside of ventricles and produce cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) |
