Short Answer
1. Draw a simple diagram of a neuron and label its components. In what ways are
neurons specialized for communication? How do these specialized features distinguish
neurons from other types of cells?
Answer: Neurons have axons and dendrites, structures for maintaining and transmitting
electrical potential, and synapses, all of which allow neurons to establish connections and
share information.

Bloom’s Level: 3. Applying
2. Glia are at least as numerous as neurons in the brain, yet neurons are the
predominant focus of neuroscience textbooks. Why?
Answer: Neurons generate and conduct electrical and chemical signals, while glia
primarily play a supporting role.

3. What was the substance of the disagreement between Golgi and Cajal that,
nevertheless, earned them both the 1906 Nobel Prize in Medicine or Physiology?
Answer: Golgi was a proponent of the “reticular theory,” which stated that all nerve
cells are connected, whereas Cajal argued that nerve cells are discrete entities, which is
now known as the neuron doctrine.
