Textbook Question
Chapter 14.1, Problem 3CYU
MAKING CONNECTIONS The cell bodies of autonomic postganglionic neurons are found in ANS ganglia. The cell bodies of another class of neuron are also found in ganglia (but not ANS ganglia). What are these other ganglia called? Determine the structural and functional classification of the neurons found in these other ganglia (use Table 11.1 on pp. 353–354 Table 1 of the chapter Fundamentals of the Nervous System and Nervous Tissue).

A. Why small children (generally before and around the stage of toddlers) tend to fall, while later on they will develop improved mobility. Briefly explain this limited mobility in their early years in terms of the formation and maturation of the different components of the nervous system structures.
B. How does a typical skeletal muscle and a typical neuron behave differently when they get depolarized? If you block the achetalcholine receptors on the plasma membrane of these two types of cells, what would be the effect on the response of each of these two cell types? why.
The giant axon of the squid (Figure Q11ā3) occu-pies a unique position in the history of our understandingof cell membrane potentials and nerve action. When anelectrode is stuck into an intact giant axon, the membranepotential registers ā70 mV. When the axon, suspended in abath of seawater, is stimulated to conduct a nerve impulse,the membrane potential changes transiently from ā70 mVto +40 mV.
16. Neurons that process similar kinds of information are organized into what are called āneuron or neuronal pools.āDifferent ways of processing information occurs in these pools, depending on their function, and how they are organized. What are the two types of processing of information described below?___________________________________One neuron stimulates the next, which stimulates the next, and so on; the most clear cut example of this type of processing would be innate reflexes.___________________________________ This type of process can activate many pathways simultaneously, and is essential for high-level processes such as complex thinking and problem solving.

Properties of male and female rat nociceptors that respond to painful mechanical stimuli (for instance a sharp tack) were recently studied by Hendrich, et al. (2012). The sensory endings of these nociceptors are found on the foot of the rat. They measured resting membrane potential (RMP) (Fig 2B) and action potential threshold (Fig 2C) in the nociceptors. The results and figure legend are shown below. Use the data (attached) to answer the following questions. Ā a. What category of sensory afferent are the authors studying? Ā Ā b.

The process of converting electrical signals to chemical signals and back requires subtle changes that can result in transient increases or decreases in membrane voltage. To cause a lasting change in the target cell, multiple signals are usually added together, or summated. Does spatial summation have to happen all at once, or can the separate signals arrive on the postsynaptic neuron at slightly different times? Explain your answer.arrow_forward
