17. These structures are lined with a type of neuroglial cells called ependymal cells. Cerebrospinal fluid is generated here and circulates throughout the CNS.___________________________________.18. Two, large C-shaped chambers deep within the brain; the largest of these chambers. Chambers are separated from each other by a membrane called the septum pellucidum. What are these chambers?___________________________________.19. Elevated ridges of the cerebral hemispheres; increase surface area of cortex for neural processing.___________________________________.20. Shallow grooves of the cerebral hemispheres; increase surface area of cortex for neural processing.___________________________________.21. This deep groove divides the two cerebral hemispheres.___________________________________.22. This groove divides the frontal lobes from the temporal lobes.___________________________________.23.

Please I don’t not understand this question. An explanation leading to the CORRECT answer would be helpful! Question: Nancy K. was ice skating and had a really bad fall. She landed awkwardly on her back and an X-ray shows she shattered a vertebra near the bottom of the thoracic region (the T-11 vertebra; mid-lower back). Unfortunately, the break crushed her spinal cord in the region, and now her brain is no longer able to send or receive signals through spinal nerves below the fracture. Which body parts are LEAST likely to be paralyzed by this horrific accident?

Identify the parts of a neuron or a brain that correspond to the given functions below. The parts are found inside the grid and loop these words either horizontally, vertically, diagonally or inversely. 1. controls the growth of a nerve cell 2. carry impulses or messages toward the cell body 3. carry messages away from the cell body 4. serves as the body’s life support system 5. coordinates muscle movement 6. responsible for mental processes 7. controls breathing, heart rate and swallowing 8. controls the movement of the eye 9. regulates breathing and helps control eye movement 10. serves as a relay station for senses

Write the name of each cranial nerve next to the Roman numeral representative of that nerve. Then draw a line to link each nerve to its characteristics. Some characteristics may link to VII. more than one nerve, while other nerves may have more than one characteristic. a. Mixed branch controls chewing and detects sensations in lower jaw b. Links the retina to the brain's visual cortex; III damage causes blindness in part or all of a visual field IV c. Regulates voluntary movements of the eyelid and eyeball V VI d. Damage to sensory branch causes loss of sensation in upper face VII VIII e. Governs tongue movements, swallowing, and gagging IX f. Damage causes tongue to deviate toward injured side X XI g. Damage here can cause a drooping eyelid and dilated pupil XII h. Damage causes sagging facial muscles and distorted sense of taste i. Longest and most widely distributed cranial nerve j. Concerned with hearing and balance k. Plays a key role in many heart, lung, digestive, and urinary…
