Portage Learning - FINAL BIOD 152 Spring 2022. This is a bundle of axons found in the peripheral nervous system. This part of the autonomic system increases digestion. The dorsal root of a nerve conta ins what type of neurons? This part of a neuron conducts nerve impulses away from the cell body. A neuron going to the bicep of the forearm is part of the: A. central nervous system B. peripheral nervous system C. Autonomic system D. Somatic system E. A&C F. B&D The neuron pictured, below, is best ...

Endocrine system - An animal hormone is a chemical signal that is secreted into the extracellular fluid, circulates in the blood or hemolymph, and communicates regulatory messages within the body. ○ A hormone may reach all parts of the body, but only specific target cells have the receptors that enable a response. ○ A given hormone traveling in the bloodstream elicits specific responses— such as a change in metabolism—only from its target cells while other cells are unaffected. ...

Types of animal signaling/communication : 1. Pheromones: Chemical signals that have evolved for communication between members of the same species 2. Auditory: Vocalizations for animals to remain hidden while talking 3. Visual: Signals that can be seen like gestures, facial expressions, body posture, coloration 4. Tactile: Involves touching, most common form like grooming, mating, infant care, social bonding Stimulus response chain : The response to each stimulus serves as a stimulus fo...
