From peripheral receptors to processing centres in the brain 3 of 21 Where do sensory neurones carry impulses to? The CNS 4 of 21 What part of the nervous system do the cranial and spinal nerves make up? The peripheral nervous system 5 of 21 Which division of the nervous system contains around 100 million neurones and controls reflexes in the digestive tract? The enteric nervous system 6 of 21 What are interneurones responsible for? Analysing sensory imputes and coordinating motor outputs 7 of 21 What portion of a neurone primarily receives the most information? Dendrites 8 of 21 What type of neurone only has one axon and one dendrite? Bipolar neurones 9 of 21 What are telodendria? Fine extensions at the end of an axon 10 of 21 What part of the neurone does most of the functions to keep it alive? The cell body or the soma 11 of 21 What is Wallerian degeneration? The breakdown of an axon distal to the site of an injury 12 of 21 What type of neuroglial cell takes part in production and circulation of cerebrospinal fluid?
