Central Nervous System | | Provide insulating layers of myelin |
Nerves | | receives electrochemical messages |
nodes of ranvier | | Carrys impulses from the central nervous system to responsives structures called what? |
dura mater | | Connects the CNS to the rest of the body |
Resting Potential | | have two process arising from the cell body |
Schwann cells | | the potential difference between the region inside the membrane |
Myelin | | This carries nerve impulses from peripheral body parts into the brain or spinal cord. |
excitatory | | These transmit information in the form of electrochemical changes |
Effectors | | masses of nerve cells |
Peripheral Nervous System | | increases the chance that nerve impulse will occur |
Dendrites | | The fatty lipoprotein |
Action potential | | Found in the PNS and surround |
inhibitory | | Motor functions that can be consciously controlled comprise what system |
Oligodendrocytes | | Found between neurons and blood vessels |
Somatic Nervous System | | bundles of axons |
Sensory neurons | | Consisting of the brain |
Neurons | | Narrow gaps between the schwann cells |
Neurilemma | | Produce myelin in the PNS |
Synapse | | lessens the chance that a nerve impulse will occur |
Astrocytes | | This system controls involuntary effectors |
Bipolar neurons | | rapid sequence of depolarization |
Nerve Impulses | | the junction between two communicating neurons |
Autonomic Nervous System | | outer most layer of the meninges |
