BI 232 Midterm 1 Oregon State Exam
Questions With Correct Answers
Multipolar Neurons - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-motor neuron &
| | | | | | |
interneurons, most common | |
bipolar neurons - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-rare, special senses: ear nose
| | | | | | | | |
eyes
Unipolar neurons - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-sensory (PNS)
| | | | |
Where is the trigger zone on each neuron type - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-
| | | | | | | | | | |
multi: near dendrites & cell body
| | | | |
uni: near dendrites
| |
Bi: right passed cell body, not very close to dendrites
| | | | | | | | |
subthreshold stimulus - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-a depolarizing stimulus
| | | | | | |
that causes a graded potential but not a actin potential
| | | | | | | | |
Suprathreshold - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-a depolarizing stimulus that
| | | | | | |
causes a neuron to reach threshold & creates an action potential
| | | | | | | | | |
, Continuous conduction - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-slower, unmyelinated
| | | | | |
axon, AP must be transferred through each point of neuron
| | | | | | | | |
Saltatory conduction - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-conduction down a
| | | | | | |
mylenated axon fast because the AP jumps from node to node
| | | | | | | | | |
3 things that influence conduction speed - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-
| | | | | | | |
diameter of axon: bigger is better | | | | |
Temp: hotter is better | | |
myelination: more myelination is better | | | |
Blood supply of the brain - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Right and left carotid
| | | | | | | | | | |
arteries supply cerebral hemispheres
| | |
rgiht and left vertebral arteries supply the cerebellum and brainstem
| | | | | | | | |
circle of willis connects them all
| | | | |
Depolarization vs Hyperpolarization ions - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-d: Na, | | | | | | | |
Ca, Mg, flows in
| | |
H: K out, Cl in
| | | |
Gyrus vs sulcus - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-g: ridge of wrinkle
| | | | | | | |
