17.the human body is made up of cells,tissues, and organs that perform numerous,complex but well coordinated. It is obvious that the body must have some kind of central communication network to control,regulate and coordinate all these activities. What is these nework called? a. Nervous sytem b. Circulatory system c.skeletal sytem d.muscular system

18.the human nervous sytem has three major parts : the brain,the spinal cord and the nerves .the brain make up the central nervous system.the network of nerves make up the a.local nervous sytem b.auxiliary nervous system c.peripheral nervous system d.secondary nervous system

19.if the occipital lobe of the brain is injured, which of the following activities will most likely be affected? A.speech b.hearing c.memory d.visual

20.what is significance of the number of convolutions in the cerebral cortex? a.the greater the number of convulutions,the wider is the surface area of the cortex.

b.the greater the number of convolutions, the more highly developed is the species. c.the greater the number of convolutions the greater is the ability of the brain to process the received information. d.all of the above 21.the vast. Network of nerves or neurons carries signals from every single part of the body to the brain and back. Neurons come in various shapes and size ,but in general ,they consist of all of the following . except a.synapse b.an axon c.cell body d.dendrites

22.the nerves that carry nerve impulses from the organs of the body to the brain and spinal cord are called ______ or sensory nerves.the nerves that carry messages from the brain back to the organs of the body vis the spinal cord are called ______ or motor nerves. a.efferent afferent b.afferent-efferent c.stimuli- responses d.responses-stimuli

23. a nerve impulse generated by a neurotransmitter has a specific target. For example, the nerve impulse that controls the beating of the heart cannot be used by another neyrin to stinulate another part of the body . in this regard ,a neurotransmitter is like a hormone . in what way is a hormone different from a neurotransmitter? a.a hormone is secreted by an endocrine gland,while a neurotransmitter is secreted by a nerve cell. b.a hormone is a chemical substance while a neurotransmitter is a chemical energy c. neurotransmitter is electrically charged while a hormone is not . D. A neurotransmitter diffuses through space while a hormone diffuses through a membrane. 24. what is blind spot? A. A point on the retina of the eye that has no light receptors . B. It is where the optic nerve leaves your eye . C .You will not see any image that falls on this spot. D. All of these

25. A reflex is an automatic response. Almost always involving one specific part of the body rather than the whole for example , when you touch something that is hot you automatically withdraw your hand even before the brain receives the sensation. How are reflexes important to the human body? A. A reflex instantaneously jerks the part of the body so it can free itself of the stimulus causinmg the pain . B. A reflex provides the body an incredible means of protecting itself from injury . C. A reflex enables the body to react swiftly even before the brain receives the signal. D. All of these 26. what is the reason why a reflex is instantaneous ? A. It involves a great portion of the brain. B. the nerves causing it have a large amount of myelin . C. IT is sent by the spinal cord even before the nerve impulse reaches the brain. D. All of these . 27 what does the afferent nerve do after receiving the stimulus? A. B. C. D. It sends the stimulus to the spinal cord. It sends the stimulus to the brain for processing. It sends the stimulus to the brain via the spinal cord. It generates nerve impulses.

28. what does neuromuscular acuity refer to? A. Degree of coordination between nerves and muscles. B. Efficient teamwork between the nervous system and muscular system. C. Skill in performing a bodily movement. D. All of these 29. what two systems of the human body are directly responsible for all bodily movements? A. Nervous system and skeletal system. B. Skeletal system and muscular system. C. Nervous system and muscular system.
