  25. WHAT ARE EPENDYMAL CELLS
    RANGE IN SHAPE FROM SQUAMOUS TO COLUMNAR AND LINE THE CENTRAL CAVITITES OF THE BRAIN AND SPINAL COLUMN
  26. WHAT ARE SATELLITE CELLS
    SURROUND NEURON CELL BODIES WITH GANGLIA
  27. FUNCTIONS OF ASTROCYTES
    • SUPPORT & BRACE NEURONS
    • ANCHOR NEURONS
    • GUIDE MIGRATION OF YOUNG NEURONS
    • CONTROL CHEMICAL ENV.
  28. WHAT IS A NEURON
    • STRUCTURAL UNITS FOR THE NS
    • COMPOSED OF A BODY, AXON, AND DENDRITES
    • LONG-LIVED,AMITOTIC, AND HAVE A HIGH MEATABOLIC RATE
  29. NEURON PLASMA MEMBRANE FUNCTIONS IN
    • ELECTRIC SIGNALING
    • CELL TO CELL SIGNALING DURING DEVELOPMENT
  30. WHAT IS SINGLE STRUCTURE ON EACH NEURON ALSO KNOWN AS A NERVE FIBER; GENERATES & TRANSMITS NERVE IMPULSES
    AXON
  31. SHORT,BRANCHING STRUCTURES RESPONSIBLE PRIMARLY FOR RECEPTION OR INPUT
    DENDRITES
  32. ROUGH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM
    NISSL BODIES
  33. WHITISH-FATTY PROTEIN MATERIAL THAT PROTECTS AND INSULATES FIBERS AND INCREASES THE SPEED OF NERVE TRANSMISSION
    MYELIN SHEATH
  34. A PORTION OF A SCHWANN CELL

    NEURILEMMA
  35. DISORDER IN WHICH MYELIN SHEATHS ARE GRADUALLY DESTROYED AND CAUSE SHORT CIRCUITING AND EVENTUALLY IMPULSE CONDUCTION CEASES
    MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS (MS)
  36. NEURONS COMMUNICATE BY

    ELECTRICAL AND CHEMICAL SIGNALS
  37. THE GAP BETWEEN NEURONS IS

    SYNAPSE
  38. WHAT TYPE OF CHEMICAL HELPS CONDUCTION OF NERVE IMPULSES

    NEUROTRANSMITTERS
  39. NEUROTRANSMITTER THAT TRIGGERS MUSCLE CONTRACTION & STIMULATES THE EXCRETION OF CERTAIN HORMONES
    ACETYLCHOLINE
  40. NEUROTRANSMITTER THAT IS AN INHIBITORY INVOLVED IN CONTROLLING MOVEMENT AND POSTURE
    DOPAMINE
  41. NEUROTRANSMITTER THAT IS IMPORTANT FOR ATTENTIVENESS, EMOTIONS SLEEPING, DREAMING, AND LEARING
    NOREPINEPHRINE
  42. NEUROTRANSMITTER THAT CONTRIBUTES TO VARIOUS FUNCTIONS, SUCH AS REGULATING BODY TEMPERATURE, SLEEP MOOD, APETITE, AND PAIN
