Chapter 33, Problem 8RQ
Summary Introduction
To describe: The cnidarian (radiate) nervous system.
Introduction: The nervous system includes the nerve cell networks involved in transmitting nerve impulses between body parts. A progressive increase observed in the complexity of the nervous system in various animal phyla and this reflects the stages in the nervous system evolution.
Summary Introduction
To explain: How is a tendency toward centralization of the nervous system manifested in arthropods, molluscs, annelids, and

Which of the following are NOT trends that have occurred during the evolution of the central nervous system in invertebrates?
A)none of the above – all are trends
B)The positioning of nerve chords at the ventral end of the animal
C)The development of sensory structures for the detection of gravity, sound and light
D)Increasing the size of cerebral ganglia and formation of a “brain”
E)The processing of sensory information by neural ganglia and the generation of motor commands
do any nematodes have similar adaptations due to their needs being met by their hosts? I know that nematodes are parasitic and not mutually beneficial, but they are still symbionts and perhaps have evolved to no longer require some components of basic anatomy in result of their needs being met by their host. please cite sources
Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of the function of the vertebrate nerve cell/ nervous system?
a) nerve cells keep the levels of Na + and k+ AT Equilibrium on both sides of the cell membrane at all times
b) Nerve cells produce impulses that release neurotransmitters to stimulate other cells
C) Nerve cells generate motor output (movement)
d) nerve cells use neurotransmitters to regulate other cells
e)nerve cells are speacialized in employing specific receptors to react to a specific stimulus
