Question 12

Selecting the Exception Four of the five answers listed below are located within the spinal cord. Select the exception.

Accepted Answer

The dorsal root ganglion is located outside the spinal cord, in the peripheral nervous system, whereas the other options are components or functions within the spinal cord.

Question 13

Selecting the Exception Four of the five answers listed below are used in descriptions of neuron membranes. Select the exception.

Accepted Answer

The synaptic cleft is not a part of the neuron's membrane; it is the gap between neurons where neurotransmitters are released. The other terms relate to structures or processes associated with the neuron's membrane.

Question 14

Question 16

Selecting the Exception Four of the five answers listed below are true of a neuron at resting potential. Select the exception.

Accepted Answer

At resting potential, the interior of a neuron is negative, not positive.

Question 17

Selecting the Exception Four of the five answers listed below are participants in a common function. Select the exception.

Accepted Answer

The medulla is part of the brainstem and is not directly involved in the basic pathway of a reflex arc, which includes sensory neurons, interneurons, effectors, and receptors.

Question 18

Selecting the Exception Four of the five answers listed below are parts of the central nervous system. Select the exception.

Accepted Answer

Ganglia are part of the peripheral nervous system, not the central nervous system.

Question 19

Selecting the Exception Four of the five answers listed below are actions mediated by the sympathetic nervous system. Select the exception.
