Important Questions on Neural Control and Coordination

EASY
Concentration of Na+ ions outside a nerve cell is ~ 100 times more than inside. The concentration of K+ ions is more inside the cells. The levels of Na+ ions and K+ ions are maintained by:
EASY
Each neuron has a cell body, axon, and dendrites. The dendrites are the protoplasmic extensions of the nerve cell. The axodendritic type of chemical synapse is formed by the association between the axon terminal of the pre-synaptic neuron and the dendrites of a post-synaptic neuron. The action potential causes the fusion of the synaptic vesicle to release the neurotransmitters for neurotransmission. Select the correct option from the following.
EASY
Neurotransmitter released at the neuromuscular junction of a voluntary muscles is:
MEDIUM

Identify A, B, C and D in the following graph regarding nerve impulse transmission.

Question Image

MEDIUM
Which one of the following ion pairs is involved in nerve impulses?
MEDIUM

Assertion (A): Impulse transmission across electrical synapse is always faster than that of chemical synapse.

Reason (R): In electrical synapse, pre and post synaptic membranes are in very close proximity and have links called gap functions.

The correct option among the following is

MEDIUM
When 'A' stands for Axon, 'D' for Dendrites, 'S' for Synapse and 'B' for Cell body, a typical sequence of structures between a receptor and an efferent is
EASY

Assertion (A): In myelinated nerve fibres, action potentials are conducted at a faster rate.

Reason (R): The myelin present between nodes of Ranvier has concentrated Na and K voltage-gated channels.

EASY
Branched ends of nerve cells are called telodendria which establish the functional contact with other nerve cell. This connection is called
EASY
Bipolar neurons occur in
1) Retina of eyes
2) Olfactory epithelium
3) Inner ear
4) Brain
MEDIUM
Depolarization of axolemma during nerve conduction takes place because of:
