Nervous System - Call List

(Print) Use this randomly generated list as your call list when playing the game. There is no need to say the BINGO column name. Place some kind of mark (like an X, a checkmark, a dot, tally mark, etc) on each cell as you announce it, to keep track. You can also cut out each item, place them in a bag and pull words from the bag.

  1. Dendrite- short bushy fibers of the neuron that feels impulses from other neurons
  2. Sensory Receptors-an organ having nerve endings
  3. Neurons- cells that transmit impulses
  4. Soma- the cell body of the neuron that contains the nucleus
  5. Nerves- long fibers that connect the CNS to every other body part
  6. 31 pairs of nerves that emerge from the spinal cord segments
  7. 100 Billion Neurons
  8. Central Nervous System (CNS)
  9. Brain Stem- connects brain to the spinal chord
  10. Reflexes- Controlled by nervous system
  11. Spinal chord- controls reflexes; carries signals from brain to the rest of the body

  19. Axon- Long extension of a nerve cell that carries impulses to other neurons, muscles, or glands
  20. Neuroglia ''nerve glue"
  21. Meninges- connective tissue wrapping the brain and spinal chord
  22. Nervous System controls and coordinates functions throughout the body
  23. Synapse- the tiny gap in between nerve fibers where impulses pass through from neuron 1 to another
  24. Ligaments connective tissue connecting bone to bone
  25. Sensory Neurons- conducts impulses inwards to the brain or spinal cord
  26. Nerve Impulse-a progressive wave
  27. Motor Neuron-Carries signals to muscles
  28. 2% of human body weight
  29. Reflex- rapid, predictable, and involuntary responses to stimuli
