    It controls involuntary functions of the respiratory, digestive, and circulatory systems

    Which of the following is true of the medulla oblongata?

    Capillary walls

    Which of the following structures in the brain forms part of the blood-brain barrier that prevents harmful substances from entering brain tissue?

    Controlling reflexes.

    All of the following are functions of the brain except

    Meningeal and endosteal.

    The cranial dura mater is composed of two layers, which are the

    Posterior, inferior

    The cerebellum is located _____ to the brain stem and _____ to the occipital lobe of the cerebrum.

    Its hemispheres are symmetrical in function.

    If you were explaining the cerebrum to a friend who doesn't understand its structure or function, which of the following would not be part of your explanation?

    In the diencephalon, the interventricular foramen connects the lateral ventricles and the third ventricle.

    Which of the following accurately describes how particular ventricles are connected to each other?

    The internal carotid and vertebral arteries supply blood to the brain, whereas the dural venous sinuses and internal jugular vein drain the blood from the brain.

    Which of the following is an accurate comparison of the arteries and veins in the brain?

    Motor signals are transmitted mainly from the anterior cortex, whereas sensory signals are received and processed in the posterior regions of the cortex.

    Which of the following accurately identifies how information is processed in the cerebral cortex?

    Soma, many dendrites, and one axon.Soma, many dendrites, and one axon.

    A typical neuron consists of a(n)

    Negative, positive

    The resting neuron has a net _____ charge inside the cell and a net _____ charge outside it.

    Bones.

    Neurotransmitters are chemicals released at synapses that regulate the activity of all of the following except

    The adrenal medulla.

    Acetylcholine is a widespread neurotransmitter that is found in all of the following except

    In the adrenal glands

    Where are norepinephrine and epinephrine produced?

    Their structures are composed of neurons and neuroglia.

    Which of the following is a similarity between the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system?

    Unipolar neurons are sensory neurons in which the axon splits into two branches that attach to the cell body.

    If one of your classmates asked you to explain the different types of neurons that can be classified by structure, which of the following would you include in your explanation?

    Oligodendrocytes have processes that reach out to multiple axon segments, whereas the entire Schwann cell surrounds just one axon segment.

    How do Schwann cells differ from oligodendrocytes?

    Prior to the process, the neuron is polarized; as the signal passes along the axon, the membrane depolarizes and repolarizes again, passing positive charges in and then back out.

    How would you explain the charge changes that occur in a neuron during the messaging process?

    Excitatory neurotransmitters encourage the transmission of an action potential, whereas inhibitory neurotransmitters inhibit transmission.

    Which of the following best explains how neurotransmitters affect an action potential?
