Match each description with the appropriate division of the nervous system: Not all descriptions will be used. Central nervous system Peripheral nervous system Answer Bank functional division responsible for involuntary control of smooth muscles functional division that transmits incoming sensations anatomical division that includes brain and spinal cord functional division that stimulates muscle contraction functional division responsible for voluntary control of skeletal muscles anatomical division that includes all nerves other than brain and spinal cord

Nervous System: Match the following definitions with the appropriate terms. The part of a neuron that receives signals is called the. When a neuron releases neurotransmitters, it can then "clean them up" by taking them back, which is called. Another way that neurons can "clean up" neurotransmitters after they're released is by breaking them down, which is called. Large molecules that can help break down neurotransmitters are called. The part of the neuron that sends signals is called the. a. enzymes b. metabolization c. axon d. dendrite e. reuptake
