- Watch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/neuroexam2) for an introduction to the neurological exam. Studying the neurological exam can give insight into how structure and function in the nervous system are interdependent. This is a tool both in the clinic and in the classroom, but for different reasons. In the clinic, this is a powerful but simple tool to assess a patient’s neurological function. In the classroom, it is a different way to think about the nervous system. Though medical technology provides noninvasive imaging and real-time functional data, the presenter says these cannot replace the history at the core of the medical examination. What does history mean in the context of medical practice?arrow_forwardWhat do you mean by sensory nerves?

Describe why reflexes are adaptive.arrow_forwardThese neurons belongs to the CNS: (More than one possible choice) A neuron in the brain A neuron carrying a signal into a skeletal muscle A neuron carrying a signal into cardiac muscle A neuron carrying signals form receptors in the skin A neuron carrying signals from the stomach a neuron in the spinal cord grey matterarrow_forward
- Sometimes you have lighting fast reflexes to protect yourself from a further dangerous situation – burning your hand, stepping on a nail or broken glass, etc. Okay, the situation or stimulus might not always we dangerous such as when the doctor checks your patellar reflex with their hand or rubber mallet. Explain the neurons involved in a reflex arc and how they trigger a reflex action in response to a stimulus.arrow_forwardHow does the entire nervous system allow our bodies to interact with all of the world?(explain the path/ how the nervous system works.) your response must include the following terms: peripheral nervous system, central nervous system, sensory neurons, and motor neurons.arrow_forwardChapter 7: The Nervous System #47 & #52 Please answer both question in a simple and very comprehensive explanation of the given situation.
