Carries preganglionic fiber into the chain. Ganglia located in the wall of the viscerae. Stalk that supports the pituitary gland. Four oval masses on the posterior thyroid. Exocrine cells of the pancreas secrete... Cells between the thyroid follicles. Interstitial cells of the testicles. Contains hormone in a colloid. Respond to deep pressure. Transparent layer of fibrous tunic of the eye. Area lacking photoreceptor cells. Swollen area of the ear semicircular canal. Wall between the ventricles of the heart. Inferior tip of the heart. A. Ampulla B. Apex C. Calcitonin D. Conus medullaris E. Cornea F. DigestivExplanation / Answer
1. D Tapered end of the spinal cord is called conus medullaris.
2. G. Endoneurium surrounds a single axon of peripheral nerve.
3. Q. Subarachnoid space site of cerebrospinal circulation.
4. H. Fasicle is a small bundle of axons in a nerve.
5. T. Uvula soft palate to prevent food from the nose.
6.S. Ventral root is the motor branch exiting the spinal cord.
7. P. Rami communicantes carries preganglionic fiber into the chain.
8. K. Intramural ganglia are the ganglia located in the wall of the viscerae.
9. .I. Infundibulum is the stalk that supports the pituitary gland.
10. N. Parathyroid glands are the four oval masses on posterior thyroid.
11. F. Exocrine cells of pancreas secrete digestive enzymes.
12. C. Calcitonin is secreted by cells between the thyroid follicles also called as C-cells.
13. O. Interstitial cells of the testicles produce testosterone.
14. R. Thyroid follicle contains hormone in a colloid.
15. M. Pacinian corpuscle respond to deep pressure in the skin.
16. E. Cornea is the transparent layer of fibrous tunic of the eye.
17. L. Optic disk is an area that lacks photoreceptors.
18. A. Ampulla is a swollen area of the semicircular canals.
19. J. Interventricular septum is the wall between ventricles of the heart.
20. B. Apex is the inferior tip of the heart.
The adrenal medulla is the inner most part of the gland. The cells of the medula are modified sympathetic neurons (post ganglionic) that secrete epipnephrine and norepinephrine that are involved in flight/fight response.
The adrenal cortex comprises three layers of zones.
1. Zona glomerulosa (outer layer) secretes aldosterone.
2. Zona fasciculata (middle layer) secretes cortisol.
3. Zona reticularis (inner layer) secretes dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA).
