1The difference between negative and positive feedback is:
- AOne is always good for the body and one is always bad
- BNegative feedback uses neurones and positive uses hormones
- CNegative reverses a change away from optimum. Positive enhances it.
- DNegative feedback is part of the autonomic nervous system. Positive feedback is part of the somatic

3Which is the correct description of a motor neurone?
- ASmall cell body at receptor, long dendron but short axon with numerous dendrites. Myelinated.
- Blarge cell body at Central Nervous System, long dendron with dendrites going to effectors. Non myelinated
- Clarge cell body at receptor, long dendrite, short axon but no dendron . Myelinated.
- DLarge cell body at Central Nervous System and a long axon with dendrites. Myelinated.
4Which is the correct shape of graph for the generation and conduction of an action potential?
- A

- B

- C

- D

- A
5In the conduction of an action potential, what happens after Na+ ion channels close ?
- Athe sodium/potassium pump begins pumping 2K+ into the cell and 2Na+ out.
- Bthe cell repolarises.
- CK+ ion channels open.
- DThe cell depolarises
6Local Currents are...
- AWhen ions diffuse into the cell and gather in a high conc. at the point at which they diffused in, causing them to diffuse to an area of low conc. further down the cell.
- BThe way in which an action potential appears to "jump" between the nodes of ranvier along a myelinated neurone.
- Cthe slow, smooth, linear flow of an action potential in a non-myelinated neurone due to the high concentrations of ions diffusing in through voltage gated channels and diffusing down the neurone.
- DWhere several action potentials join together to make one, larger one.
