Question 2: astigmatism
Answer:
irregularity in the curvature of the lens and or cornea that lead to blurred vision Question 3: transmits the vibratory motion of the stirrup to the fluid in the scala vestibuli of the inner ear
Answer:
oval window
Question 4: Babinski sign
Answer:
toes flare in new borns
Question 5: Glaucoma
Answer:
when intraocular pressure reaches dangerously high levels, the retina and optic nerve are compressed.results in blindness Question 6: vibrates at the same frequency as sound waves hitting it; trnsmits the vibrations to ossicles
Answer:
tympanic membrane
Question 7: aqueous humor
Answer:
anterior part of eye. formed by the capillaries of the ciliary processes of the ciliary body. helps to maintain the intraocular pressure of the eye and provides nutrients for the avascular lens and cornea.
Question 8: Effector
Answer:
muscle fibers or glands, responds to efferent impulses characteristically
Question 9: name the 3 divisions of the cochlea and whats found in each
Answer:
scala vestibuli (peri) scala media (endo) scala tympani (peri)
Question 10: Referred pain
Answer:
when pain is felt in a different area than the original source of pain
Question 11: what are the 3 branches of the aorta?
Answer:
brachiocephalic, L common carotid, L subclavian
Question 12: proprioreceptors
Answer:
respond to internal stimuli but are restricted to skeletal muscles.
Question 13: cornea
Answer:
outermost part of the sclera. clear covering over iris
Question 14: Superficial cord reflexes
Answer:
result from pain and temperature changes. They are initiated by stimulation of receptors in the skin and mucosae. Depend on both on functional upper motorpathways and on the cord-level reflex arc. ex.plantar reflex
Question 15: emmetropic eye
Answer:
normal eye sight
Question 16: rate density of touch, hot and cold receptors from high to low
Answer:
touch, cold, heat
Question 17: where is the visual cortex of the brain
Answer:
the occipital lobe of the brain Question 18: the smallst two-point thresholds were on the fingers and lips. why?
Answer:

Question 19: weber test
Answer:
strike tuning fork, put medially on head. sensorineural deafness-tone heard in unaffected ear.conduction deafness-tone heard more strongly in ear with conduction deafness
Question 20: Flexor Reflex
Answer:
A three-neuron relfex arc. The more synapses encountered in a reflex pathway, the more time is required to effect the reflex.
Question 21: iris
Answer:
the front of the ciliary body and is penetrated by the pupil. pigmented part of eye
Question 22: Motor neuron
Answer:
Conducts Efferent impulses from the integration center to an effector organ.
Question 23: What are reflexes?
Answer:
Rapid, predictable, involuntary motor responses to stimuli; they are mediated over neural pathways called reflex arcs
Question 24: Spinal Reflex
Answer:
intitiated and completed at the spinal cord level. Occur without the involvement of higher brain centers.
Question 25: opthalmoscope
Answer:
tool used to observe the eye
Question 26: vitreous humor
Answer:
in the vitreous body. in the posterior part of the eye
Question 27: Plantar reflex
Answer:
an important neurological test. stimulating the cutaneous receptors in the sole of the foot. toes flex an move closer together
