Match the terms in column A with the descriptions ¡n column B. Place the letter of your choice in the space provided.
Column A
a. Effector
b. Ependymal cell
c. Ganglion
d. Interneuron (association neuron)
e. Microglia
f. Motor (efferent) neuron
g. Oligodendrocyte
h. Sensory (efferent) neuron
Column B
1. Transmits impulse from sensory to motor neuron within central nervous system
2. Transmits impulse out of the brain or spinal cord to effectors (muscles and glands)
3. Transmits impulse into brain or spinal cord from receptors
4. Myelin-forming neuroglia in brain and spinal cord
5. Phagocytic neuroglia
6. Structure capable of responding to motor impulse
7. Specialized mass of neuron cell bodies outside the brain or spinal cord
8. Cells that line cavities of the brain and secrete cerebrospinal fluid

If you add heterotrophic respiration and autotrophic respiration together and then subtract that value from gross primary productivity, then you have a more refined estimate of ecosystem carbon storage than NEE. Differential heating due to the earth's tilt generates the global wind AND oceanic circulation patternsarrow_forward
