Label the following as either TRUE OR FALSE: 1. Cephalization is the term that relates to the formation of the structures of the head in embryonic development. 2. Astrocytes are a type of glial cells in the central nervous system that have a number of support functions, including maintenance of the blood-brain barrier. 3. A mouse encounters its first mouse trap. It sees the cheese, and though it sets off the trap, it escapes unharmed. The next time it encounters the trap, it ignores the cheese and avoids the trap. This provides an example of both learning and memory.

True or False: 6. The spinal cord is an organ located within the skull that functions as an organizer and distributor of information for the body. 7. The cell body is part of the neurons, where the signals from the dendrites are joined and passed on. 8. The autonomic nervous system is part of the peripheral nervous system and is associated with the involuntary control of body movements. 9. The peripheral nervous system is not an organ located within the skull but functions as an organizer and distributor of information for the body. 10. The cerebellum is the part under the cerebrum that controls posture, balance, and coordination.

Interneurons Neurons that connect sensory and motor neurons Part 2: Copy the number for each question and indicate whether each of the following statements is true or false. 1. The cerebellum is the largest part of the brain. False 2. The pons is located below the medulla oblongata. True 3. The hypothalamus controls urges such as thirst and hunger. True 4. The corpus callosum controls most thinking and reasoning processes. True 5. Motor neurons will carry an impulse toward the central nervous system. True 6. The dorsal root of the spine's vertebrae has sensory neurons passing through. True 7. The hypothalamus produces several hormones that are stored in the pituitary gland. True 8. The hypothalamus usually involves the peripheral nerves and the spinal cord. False 9. A reflex lobe of the brain controls vision. False 10. The temporal lobe of the brain controls hearing. True 11. The frontal lobe controls respiration. False 12. The autonomic nervous system is part of the sympathetic nervous system. True 13. The hindbrain connects with the forebrain. False 14. The midbrain connects the nervous system.
