Sensory neuron deals with the different movements of the body.
FALSE -MOTOR NEURON
These are shorter nerve fibers that carry messages toward the cell body. Its primary job is to relay information gathered from other nerve cells.
DENDRITES
They transmit signals to and from the nervous system.
NERVES
It is the lowest part of the brain, located on top of the spinal cord.
MEDULLA OBLONGATA
Somatic Nervous System controls the involuntary actions and activities of the smooth and cardiac muscles.
FALSE - AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
It is the distance between two neurons.
SYNAPSE
The somatic nervous system is made up of 34 pairs of nerves.
FALSE - 43 PAIRS OF NERVES
It is a long and thick bundle of nerve tissues surrounded and protected by the spinal column or vertebral column.
SPINAL CORD
Spinal nerves are nerves directly attached to the brain.
TRUE
It is the inflammation of the meninges covering the brain or the spinal cord that is caused by a certain type of bacteria.
MENINGITIS
It is a condition that occurs when the supply of oxygen in the brain is cut off due to a blockage in the arteries.
STROKE
Cranial nerves are nerves directly attached to the brain.
TRUE
It is the central part of the neuron that contains the nucleus, and threadlike extensions called nerve fibers.
CELL BODY
It is an abnormal growth of cells in the brain.
BRAIN TUMOR
It is a partial or complete brain damage before, during, or shortly after birth.
CEREBRAL PALSY
It is also called infantile paralysis. It is caused by polio virus that attacks nerve cells.
POLIOMYELITIS
These are long, thin cells of the nervous system.
NEURONS
It is the brownish-gray tissue in the brain and the spinal cord that is considered a main component of the nervous system.
GRAY MATTER
Autonomic Nervous System controls voluntary actions such as walking, handling objects, and even tying one’s shoelaces.
FALSE - SOMATIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
Associative neuron connects sensory and motor neurons, allowing impulse to travel from one nerve to another.
TRUE
It is a condition commonly caused by head injuries, physical trauma, shock, repression, or even anesthesia. It is the temporary or permanent loss of memory.
AMNESIA
Motor neuron is responsible for detecting different sensations.
FALSE - SENSORY NEURON
It is a condition that involves damage to the neurons. It may be caused by a brain defect that originates at birth.
EPILEPSY
One nerve fiber of neuron is called an axon. It is responsible for carrying messages or signals from a nerve cell to receptor sites or another nerve cell.
AXON
