Identify each structure of the eye. (1 point each) A. deepest layerB.C.D.

Which structure represents the paravertebral ganglion? (1 point) What neurotransmitter is released at the synapse within B? (1 point) This pathway is from which division of the ANS? (1 point) Which structure is located within the CNS? (1 point) What is the name given to the neuron that extends from B to C? (1 point)

Complete the pathway with the appropriate structure. (2 points each) Light rays enter eye where they are refracted by the _________A___________, a transparent structure on the anterior surface of the eye. Light rays continue through a hole in the iris known as the _________B___________, which changes size depending on the amount of light in the environment. Once inside the eye, light is refracted by the ________C____________ which is able to flatten when viewing faraway objects. Finally the image is focused on the ________D____________(the neural layer of the eye) and light is detected by __________E__________(type of receptors). These receptors create action potentials which are transmitted along the optic nerves where some fibers cross over at the __________F__________, then continue on as __________G__________ synapsing in the thalamus and terminating in the occipital lobe of the cerebrum.

Identify each structure of the eye. Be specific when it comes to muscles! (1 point each) A.B.C.D.

Complete the pathway with the appropriate structure. (2 points each)   Neurons on the tongue contain three types of receptors:  mechanoreceptors, ________A________, and ________B____________ .  Once threshold is met, the cranial nerves ________C___________ and _________D___________that innervate for taste on the tongue transmit action potentials back to the brain. Once inside the brain the afferent messages synapse in the _________E___________ before reaching the cerebrum. Once in the cerebrum the sense of taste is interpreted within the _________F___________ lobe.

A. Identify this structure; located at each vertebral level. (1 point) B. As structure A exits the vertebral column it splits into a ventral and dorsal _____. (1 point) C. What is the functional classification of structure A? (1 point)
