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. Axon- Long extension of a nerve cell that carries impulses to other neurons, muscles, or glands
  2. 100 Billion Neurons
  3. Sensory Neurons- conducts impulses inwards to the brain or spinal cord
  4. Nerves- long fibers that connect the CNS to every other body part
  5. Spinal chord- controls reflexes; carries signals from brain to the rest of the body
  6. Brain- Coordinates and sends signals to other body parts
  7. Ligaments connective tissue connecting bone to bone
  8. Autonomic Nervous System
  9. Reflexes- Controlled by nervous system
  10. Synapse- the tiny gap in between nerve fibers where impulses pass through from neuron 1 to another
  11. Dendrite- short bushy fibers of the neuron that feels impulses from other neurons
  12. Reflex- rapid, predictable, and involuntary responses to stimuli
  13. Cell-made up of nerve cells and support cells
  14. 31 pairs of nerves that emerge from the spinal cord segments
  15. Neuroglia ''nerve glue"
  16. Meninges- connective tissue wrapping the brain and spinal chord
  17. Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)
  18. Brain Stem- connects brain to the spinal chord
  19. Optic Nerves- carry light impulse from retina to brain
  20. Cranial Nerves-12 pair of nerves that emerge directly from brain
  21. Central Nervous System (CNS)
  22. 2% of human body weight
  23. Nerve Impulse-a progressive wave
  24. Somatic Nervous System
  25. Neurons- cells that transmit impulses
  26. Sensory Receptors-an organ having nerve endings
  27. Soma- the cell body of the neuron that contains the nucleus
  28. Nervous System controls and coordinates functions throughout the body
  29. Nervous Tissue- transmits nerve impulses throughout the body
  30. Motor Neuron-Carries signals to muscles
