APHY 101 Final Exam Questions and Answers - Latest 2024/2025 | Graded A+. What are the functions of the nervous system? ANS- detects changes, make deci- sions, stimulates muscle and gland tissue, and maintains homeostasis 2. Receiving information, receptors detect changes, transduce into electrical impulse, and carries information to CNS is ANS- sensory function 3. CNS, coordinates incoming information, makes decisions on how the body will respond is ANS- integrative function 4. carries...

What is homeostasis? - Answer-how varied components of living things adjust to maintain a constant internal living environment. There is a balanced dynamic state! Diseases result from homeostatic imbalances (diabetes) What are the levels of organization? - Answer-chemical - cellular - tissue - organ - organ system - organismal What is the nervous system made of? - Answer-The Central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system (cranial nerves and spinal nerves)....

PAS 407 Nerves Question and answers verified to passPAS 407 Nerves, Spinal Cord and Meninges What are the four components of a Neuron? - correct answer - Signal reception at dendrites/ receptors - Signal transport along axon - Signal Transduction at axon terminus - Cell maintenance through organelles myelinated axons - correct answer axons wrapped in layers of myelin from schwann cells (like a jelly role) provides insulation, improves conduction speed gives axon white app...
