Physiology 100 This constitutes information for the sensory system. What is a significant change in energy level? Click to reveal the question Return to Game Board

Physiology 200 This is defined as the energy change sufficient to cause receptors to generate a receptor potential. What is an adequate stimulus? Click to reveal the question Return to Game Board

Physiology 300 These neurons relay information from receptors in the periphery into the CNS. Their cell bodies are located in DRG or CNN. They are pseudo-monopolar cells. What are first-order neurons? Click to reveal the question Return to Game Board

Physiology 400 This is the process by which sensory receptors transform changes in the adequate stimulus into changes in neuronal discharge (electrochemical energy). What is information transduction? Click to reveal the question Return to Game Board

Physiology 500 This is the form of energy to which skin, muscle, and joint receptors are most sensitive. What is mechanical deformation? Click to reveal the question Return to Game Board

DCML 100 These are the sensory modalities to which the DCML is selectively sensitive. What are discriminative tactile sense, conscious proprioception, vibration, and stereognosis? Click to reveal the question Return to Game Board

DCML 200 This is the spinal pathway by which discriminative tactile information from the upper extremity is conveyed. It is located laterally in the dorsal column, from T 6 and above. What is the fasciculus cuneatus? Click to reveal the question Return to Game Board

DCML 400 Third-order neurons projecting from the thalamus to the primary sensory cortex pass through this area. This white matter area separates the thalamus from the caudate nucleus. What is the internal capsule? Click to reveal the question Return to Game Board

DCML 500 This construct depicts the somatotopic organization of the primary sensory cortex. It portrays a distorted representation of the body where body parts are portrayed proportional to the amount of brain space dedicated to the control of that body part. What is the sensory homunculus? Click to reveal the question Return to Game Board

Spinothalamic System 100 The modalities to which the spinothalamic system is most sensitive. What are pain and temperature from the contralateral body? Click to reveal the question Return to Game Board

Spinothalamic System 300 At or about the level of entry. What is the level of the neuraxis at which this system crosses the midline (decussates)? Click to reveal the question Return to Game Board

Spinothalamic System 400 The thalamic relay center by which information about pain and temperature makes its way into the limbic system. What is the intralaminar nucleus ? Click to reveal the question Return to Game Board

Spinothalamic System 500 The type of organization found throughout this system. Helps account for why patients may have difficulty localizing the source of their pain. What is not somatotopically organized? Click to reveal the question Return to Game Board
