Resumo de Recurso

Questão 1

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

Questão 2

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

Questão 3

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

Questão 4

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

Questão 5

Responda
  • electrical
  • chemical
  • electrical
  • chemical

Questão 6

Questão
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?
Responda
  • Na+ ions rush in
  • K+ ions rush in
  • Na+ ions rush out
  • K+ ions rush out

Questão 7

Questão
The thalamus is the sensory relay center
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 8

Questão
Oligodendrocytes myelinate axons in the PNS
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 9

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

Questão 10

Questão
What do oligodendrocytes do?
Responda
  • 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

Questão 11

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

Questão 12

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

Questão 13

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

Questão 14

Questão
Label the neuron shapes
Responda
  • Unipolar
  • Bipolar
  • Multipolar
  • Unipolar
  • Bipolar
  • Multipolar
  • Unipolar
  • Bipolar
  • Multipolar

Questão 15

Questão
Label the functions of each lobe of the brain
Responda
  • Motor
  • Touch
  • Audition
  • Vision

Questão 16

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

Questão 17

Questão
Label the steps of synaptic communication
Responda
  • 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

Questão 18

Questão
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
Responda
  • everywhere
  • everywhere
  • excitatory

Questão 19

Questão
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
Responda
  • everywhere
  • everywhere
  • inhibitory

Questão 20

Questão
Agonists [blank_start]increase[blank_end] NT activity and antagonists [blank_start]decrease[blank_end] NT activity
Responda
  • increase
  • decrease

Questão 21

Questão
