CHAPTER 3 NEUROSCIENCE CHAPTER LEARNING OBJECTIVES 1. Understand the key methods that scientists use to learn about brain anatomy and functioning. • Neuroscientists examine autopsy tissue and patients with localized brain damage to learn about brain anatomy and brain function. • EEGs and neuroimaging, such as PET scans and fMRI, allow scientists to study brain function in the living brain. 2. Describe the two major types of cells in the nervous system and describe the prima...

NR546 Midterm Exam Are the PMHNP and other staff liable if the client has an allergic reaction or adverse side effects to the drugs used for chemical restraint? - Answer-No. The client has been court-ordered to take the prescribed medications and the standing order for chemical restraints is approved. The PMHNP and other staff are not liable if the patient has an allergic reaction or adverse side effects. How does reviewing the genetic makeup of a client help guide the PMHNP in selec...

CRANIAL NERVES Similarities Between Spinal Nerves & Cranial Nerves: Cranial Nerves develop similar to Spinal Nerves, & hence have a similar structural Organisation:  Sensory Cranial Nerves: Similar to Afferent Spinal Nerves – Sensory Cranial Nerves’ Dendrites are associated with peripheral sensory receptors & their Cell Bodies are located in a Sensory Ganglia (Similar to the Dorsal Root Ganglion in the spinal cord). Their axons then terminate in the Sensory Nuclei of the Bra...
