What is a dendrite? A) It is a cell that sends signals to the central nervous system based on sensory input. B) It is the part of a neuron that carries information to the cell body. C) It is a cell that sends signals to the body to move. D) It is the part of the neuron that carries information away from the cell body. 2. What is the term for changes in the internal or external environment that cause a response? A) stimuli B) signals C) nerves D) messages 3. How do signals move from a sensory neuron toward the brain? A) The signal is sent through the part of the neuron that is in contact with the spinal cord. B) Signals move from dendrite to dendrite towards the brain. C) Interneurons help signals move from one neuron to another toward the spinal cord. D) Motor neurons signal for the body to move the signal toward the brain. 4. What part of the nervous system is very well protected by bone? A) central nervous system B) interneurons C) peripheral nervous system D) sensory neurons 5. You see a mosquito land on your hand and swat at it. A signal passes through many parts of different neurons to make this happen. Which component of the nervous system is the last to be involved in this process? A) dendrites in sensory neurons B) axons in motor neurons C) dendrites in motor neurons D) axons in sensory neurons
