Ischemia - ANS Deficient blood flow to the brain due to functional constriction of a blood
vessel by a clot
Hemorrhagic - ANS Blood vessel bursts
Tissue plasminogen Activator (t-PA) - ANS Breaks up clots and allows normal blood flow
Nuclei - ANS Specific functions in mediating behavior
Tracts - ANS Long-distance connections between nuclei
Epigentic - ANS Genes become expressed because of the environment
Coronal section directions - ANS Dorsal(Above/Superior), Ventral(Below/Inferior),
Rostral(Right), Caudal(Left)
Other directions - ANS Anterior(In Front), Posterior(Behind), Medial(In between / Middle),
Lateral(The side)

, Proximal - ANS Near-by
Distal - ANS Far from
Efferent - ANS From the brain out
Afferent - ANS From the body to the brain
Pre-central gyrus - ANS The motor strip
Cranial nerves - ANS Bring senses from the body to the brain while others control motor
movements
Spinal nerves - ANS Carries sensory, motor and autonomic signals via spinal cord
CNS contains: - ANS Brain and Spinal Cord
PNS contains - ANS Somatic Nervous System and Autonomic Nervous System
Somatic nervous system - ANS Transmits sensation and produces movement // Cranial and
Spinal nerves
Autonomic nervous system - ANS Balances internal functions // Sympathetic and
Parasympathetic
Which nervous system is protected by bone encasement's? - ANS CNS
Which nervous system is NOT protected by bone encasement's? - ANS PNS
