QUESTIONS WITH DETAILED VERIFIED
CORRECT ANSWERS GRADED A PLUS
⩥ oligodendrocytes. Answer: form myelin sheaths in CNS
⩥ microglia. Answer: phagocytic immune cells
⩥ ependymal cells. Answer: line cavities of CNS produce and circulate
cerebrospinal fluid
⩥ satellite cells. Answer: in ganglia support and regulate chemical
environment in PNS
⩥ schwann cells. Answer: form myelin sheath in PNS
⩥ Nissl substance. Answer: RER found in cell body and dendrites, but
not axon of neurons.
⩥ depolarization. Answer: starts by opening of voltage gated NA
channels membrane potential moves from -70 to +30
, ⩥ Repolarization. Answer: Na channels close and K channels open to let
K exit the cell so that the loss of positive ions returns membrane
potential to -70mV
⩥ hyperpolarization. Answer: K channels close and membrane potential
goes to -80
⩥ Return to Resting Potential. Answer: Na/K pump restores ions to -70
⩥ refractory period. Answer: when the membrane cannot respond to new
stimulus happens from depol to repol
⩥ continuous propagation. Answer: happens in unmyelinated axon
⩥ saltatory propagation. Answer: happens in myelinated axons
⩥ chemical synapses. Answer: release neurotransmitters that are stored
in synaptic vesicles (usually bind to ligand-gated ion channels)
⩥ chemical synapses have a. Answer: synaptic delay
⩥ removal of nts. Answer: simple diffusion
