| 1. | a type of neuroglial cell that surrounds an axon of a peropheral neuron forming the neurilemmal sheath and myelin. |
| 5. | motor pathways of the peripheral nervous system that lead to the skin and skeletal muscles |
| 8. | part of nervous system that controls the viscera |
| 9. | A gap in the myelin sheath of a nerve, between adjacent Schwann cells |
| 10. | masses of neuron cell bodies, usually outside the central nervous system |
| 11. | a type of neuroglial cell that connects neurons to blood vessels. |
| 13. | the functional connection between the axon of a neuron and the dendrite or cell body of another neuron or the membrane of another cell type. |
| 15. | the difference in electrical charge between the inside and the outside of an undisturbed nerve cell membrane. |
| 16. | stimulation level that must be exceeded to elicit a nerve impulse or a muscle contraction. |
| 17. | Part of the nervous system outside the central nervous system |
| 18. | portion of nerve cell that includes a cytoplasmic mass and a nucleus and from which nerve fibers extend |
| 19. | the sequence of electrical changes that occurs in a portion of a nerve cell membrane that is exposed to a stimulus that exceeds the membrane's threshold. |
| 22. | a nerve that consists of motor neuron axons. |
| 23. | chemicals that axons secrete on effectors or other neurons |
| 24. | a neuroglial cell that supports neutrons and phagocytizes. |
| 25. | a type of neuroglial cell that forms myelin |
| 26. | specializes structures associated with the peripheral ends of sensory neurons specific to detecting a particular sensation and triggering nerve impulses in response which are transmitted to the central nervous system. |
