4.
A shiny layer underneath the cortex that consists largely of axons with
white myelin sheaths.
5.
Complexly shaped lateral portion of the ventricular system within each
hemisphere of the brain.
A. 
B. 
C. 
First and second ventricles
D. 
6.
A bundle of axons found within the central nervous system.
A. 
B. 
C. 
D. 
7.
The mechanism/s that make the movement of substances from capillaries
into brain cells more difficult than exchanges in other body organs.
8.
A type of large nerve cell in the cerebellar cortex.
9.
The three protective sheets of tissue—dura mater, pia mater, and
arachnoid—that surround the brain and spinal cord.
10.
An extensive region of the brainstem (extending from the medulla through
the thalamus) that is involved in arousal and wake-sleep cycle.
11.
Term the means "to provide neural input."
12.
The ability of the nervous system to change in response to experience or
the environment.
13.
A ridged or raised portion of a convoluted brain surface.
14.
The form of conduction that is characteristic of myelinated axons, in
which the nerve impulse jumps from one node of Ranvier to the next.
15.
A reduction in membrane potential (the interior of the neuron becomes
less negative).
16.
A brief period of a complete insensitivity to stimuli after neural conduction or firing or neural impulses
17.
A string of nuclei in the midline or medial part of the midbrain and brainstem that
contain most of the serotonergic neurons of the brain.
A. 
B. 
C. 
D. 
E. 
18.
The scientific field concerned with the discovery and study of
compounds that selectively affect the functioning of the nervous system.
19.
A molecule, usually a drug, that binds a receptor molecule and initiates
a response like that of another molecule, usually a neurotransmitter.
20.
A condition in which the development of tolerance for an administered
drug causes an individual to develop tolerance for another drug.
A. 
B. 
C. 
D. 
21.
A drug of abuse, derived from the coca plant, that acts by potentiating
catecholamine stimulation. It is a stimulant of the central nervous system and an appetite suppressant.Its possession, cultivation, and distribution are illegal for
non-medicinal and non-government sanctioned purposes in virtually all
parts of the world.
A. 
B. 
C. 
D. 
22.
The neuronal body–rich region of the midbrain surrounding the cerebral
aqueduct that connects the third and fourth ventricles.Central gray
matter surrounding the cerebral aqueduct
in the mesencephalon.
Physiologically it is probably involved
in rage reactions,
the lordosis
reflex,
feeding
responses,
bladder
tonus,
and pain.
A. 
B. 
C. 
D. 
23.
A chemical secreted by an endocrine gland that is conveyed by the
bloodstream and regulates target organs or tissues.
24.
The developmental process during which “surplus” cells die.
25.
An axon that terminates in the skin without any specialized cell
associated with it and that is usually known to detect pain..... but may also detect changes in temperature.It is unencapsulated and has no complex sensory structures, unlike those
found in Meissner's or Pacinian corpuscles. It is the most common type of nerve
ending, and is most frequently found in the skin.
