Which structure is responsible for the production of melatonin? the Pineal gland
Which cells produce cerebrospinal fluid? Ependymal cells
Name the 5 types of glial cells oligodendrocytes, Schwann cells, ependymal cells, microglia, astrocytes
what was previously believed to be necessary for cognition? neocortex
how was it proved that the neocortex was not necessary for cognition? birds display signs of cognition but their brains do not have neocortex
name the 3 division of the autonomic nervous system sympathetic parasympathetic enteric
which division of the autonomic nervous system is responsible for "rest and digest"? the parasympathetic division
what do oligodendrocytes/Schwann cells do? they form myelin sheaths on: oligodendrocytes in the CNS Schwann cells in the PNS
R = universal gas constant T = absolute temperature z = charge of the ion F = Faraday constant
why is the Goldman equation used instead of the Nernst equation to calculate the membrane potential of a neuron because the neuron is permeable to more than one ion at a time
in what situation would you use the Nernst equation rather than the Goldman equation when looking at membrane potentials? when the membrane conductivity for a specific ion has increased
what is the relative membrane permeability for K+ ? pK = 1.0
what is the relative permeability for Na+ ? pNa = 0.05
what is the relative permeability for Cl- ? pCl = 0.45
what is the resting potential of a mammalian neuron? -66mV
what is the net movement of Na+ and K+ during the formation of the resting potential? 2K+ into the cell and 3Na+ out of the cell
