Frage 1

Frage
If a drug speeds up the reuptake of a neurotransmitter, it's an
Antworten
  • antagonist
  • agonist

Frage 2

Frage
If a drug disrupts the production of a neurotransmitter, it's an
Antworten
  • agonist
  • antagonist

Frage 3

Frage
What effect on APs would a glutamate agonist have?
Antworten
  • More action potentials (an increase in excitability)
  • Less action potentials (a decrease in excitability)

Frage 4

Frage
What effect on APs would a GABA agonist have?
Antworten
  • More action potentials (an increase in excitability)
  • Less action potentials (a decrease in excitability)
  • Neither, because GABA doesn't influence excitability

Frage
Signals with neurons are primarily [blank_start]electrical[blank_end]; signals between neurons are primarily [blank_start]chemical[blank_end]
Antworten
  • electrical
  • chemical
  • electrical
  • chemical

Frage 6

Frage
Just after a cell reaches -40mV (at the start of an action potential), as it continues to depolarize, which of the following is/are true?
Antworten
  • Na+ ions rush in
  • K+ ions rush in
  • Na+ ions rush out
  • K+ ions rush out

Frage 7

Frage
The thalamus is the sensory relay center
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 8

Frage
Oligodendrocytes myelinate axons in the PNS
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 9

Frage
Where in the neuron is the decision made to fire?
Antworten
  • axon terminals
  • dendrites
  • axon hillock
  • nucleus

Frage 10

Frage
What do oligodendrocytes do?
Antworten
  • Make up one segment of myelin
  • Transfer nutrients from blood cells to neurons and waste from neurons to blood
  • Make up myelin sheath
  • Pick up and destroy debris around the neuron

Frage 11

Frage
What do glial cells NOT do?
Antworten
  • Provide neurons with chemical signals
  • Provide neurons with raw materials
  • Help neurons with specialized structural components
  • Trick question; they do all of these things

Frage 12

Frage
[blank_start]Glogi[blank_end] stains are good for seeing neuron shapes, while [blank_start]Nissl[blank_end] stains are good for counting neurons
Antworten
  • Nissl
  • Golgi
  • Nissl
  • Golgi

Frage 13

Frage
What can we see with neuron stains?
Antworten
  • Specific proteins
  • Action potentials
  • Neuron connectivity
  • Recently active neurons

Frage 14

Frage
Label the neuron shapes
Antworten
  • Unipolar
  • Bipolar
  • Multipolar
  • Unipolar
  • Bipolar
  • Multipolar
  • Unipolar
  • Bipolar
  • Multipolar

Frage 15

Frage
Label the functions of each lobe of the brain
Antworten
  • Motor
  • Touch
  • Audition
  • Vision

Frage 16

Frage
Label the steps of an action potential
Antworten
  • Resting potential
  • Na+ ligand-gated channels open
  • Threshold! Na+ rushes in
  • K+ voltage-gated channels open, K+ out

Frage 17

Frage
Label the steps of synaptic communication
Antworten
  • AP reaches axon terminal
  • Ca2+ volt-gate ch. open, Ca2+ rushes in
  • Ca2+ makes the vesicles sticky
  • Vesicles fuse w/cell wall, release NTs
  • NTs bind to receptors
  • Ions depolarize or hyperpolarize cell

Antworten
  • everywhere
  • everywhere
  • excitatory

Frage 19

Frage
GABA is sent to [blank_start]everywhere[blank_end], from [blank_start]everywhere[blank_end], and is the most predominant [blank_start]inhibitory[blank_end] NT in the brain
Antworten
  • everywhere
  • everywhere
  • inhibitory

Frage 20

Frage
