Resumen del Recurso

Pregunta 1

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

Pregunta 2

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

Pregunta 3

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

Pregunta 4

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

Pregunta 5

Pregunta

Respuesta
  • electrical
  • chemical
  • electrical
  • chemical

Pregunta 6

Pregunta
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?
Respuesta
  • Na+ ions rush in
  • K+ ions rush in
  • Na+ ions rush out
  • K+ ions rush out

Pregunta 7

Pregunta
The thalamus is the sensory relay center
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 8

Pregunta
Oligodendrocytes myelinate axons in the PNS
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 9

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

Pregunta 10

Pregunta
What do oligodendrocytes do?
Respuesta
  • 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

Pregunta 11

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

Pregunta 12

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

Pregunta 13

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

Pregunta 14

Pregunta
Label the neuron shapes
Respuesta
  • Unipolar
  • Bipolar
  • Multipolar
  • Unipolar
  • Bipolar
  • Multipolar
  • Unipolar
  • Bipolar
  • Multipolar

Pregunta 15

Pregunta
Label the functions of each lobe of the brain
Respuesta
  • Motor
  • Touch
  • Audition
  • Vision

Pregunta 16

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

Pregunta 17

Pregunta
Label the steps of synaptic communication
Respuesta
  • 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

Pregunta 18

Glutamate is sent to [blank_start]everywhere[blank_end], from [blank_start]everywhere[blank_end], and is the most predominate [blank_start]excitatory[blank_end] NT in the brain
Respuesta
  • everywhere
  • everywhere
  • excitatory

Pregunta 19

Pregunta
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
Respuesta
  • everywhere
  • everywhere
  • inhibitory

Pregunta 20

Pregunta
Agonists [blank_start]increase[blank_end] NT activity and antagonists [blank_start]decrease[blank_end] NT activity
Respuesta
  • increase
  • decrease

Pregunta 21

Pregunta
