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. Meninges- connective tissue wrapping the brain and spinal chord
  2. Reflexes- Controlled by nervous system
  3. Nervous Tissue- transmits nerve impulses throughout the body
  4. 100 Billion Neurons
  5. Sensory Neurons- conducts impulses inwards to the brain or spinal cord
  6. Central Nervous System (CNS)
  7. Neurons- cells that transmit impulses
  8. Synapse- the tiny gap in between nerve fibers where impulses pass through from neuron 1 to another
  9. Cranial Nerves-12 pair of nerves that emerge directly from brain
  10. 2% of human body weight
  11. Somatic Nervous System
