Case study based questions :

1. i. The points of contact between neurons where information is passed from one neuron to the
next is called synapse.
ii. An electrical signal that travels along the axon is called electrical impulse.
iii. A synaptic connection between the terminal end of a motor nerve and a muscle is called
neuro muscular junction.
iv. a. The chemical molecules that transmit signals from neurons to muscles, or between
different neurons are called neurotransmitters.
b. Acetylcholine
v. a. At the end of the axon, the electrical impulse sets off the release of some chemicals.
b. At the synapse, these chemicals cross the gap and start a similar electrical impulse in
a dendrite of the next neuron.
2. i. Cerebrum is the largest part of the brain. It is the most specialised and complex part of
the brain. It is essential for memory, reasoning communication, emotions and many other
functions.
ii. In the association areas of the cerebrum the sensory information is interpreted by putting it
together with information from other receptors as well as with information that is already
stored in the brain.
iii. a. Reflex actions are nerve mediated, automatic involuntary actions that occur without
the will of an animal. Eg : Withdrawing our hands away immediately after touching a
hot or cold object.
