University of Phoenix Material Appendix B Structures of the Nervous System This activity will increase your understanding of the different structures of the nervous system and brain. During the Web activity‚ you will view a variety of structures of the brain and nervous system and label each with the appropriate term. You will use this document to write a description for the terms you used in the activity. As you conduct the Structures of the Nervous System activity‚ follow along with this Word document

The Effects of Using the Heat Shock Treatment to Deliver a Vector in Genetic Transformation Introduction: In this experiment we are testing what is required for E. coli to successfully grow on LB (Luria Broth) plates with ampicillin and determining if any genetic transformation has occurred. By combining +pGLO LB and ampicillin we should get an ampicillin resistant gene and by using –pGLO we should create a non-genetic resistant bacteria. The pGLO plasmid has the GFP (green fluorescent protein)

There are incoming messages which are carried by sensory nerves and the brain is able to interpret these messages due to experience. The outgoing messages from the brain are carried by motor nerves and result in movement and activity.

Nervous System- Nerve Impulse When a stimulus is strong enough‚ a nerve impulse is generated in an "all or none" response which means that a stimulus strong enough to generate a nerve impulse has been given. The stimulus triggers chemical and electrical changes in the neuron. Before an impulse is received‚ a resting neuron is polarized with different charges on either side of the cell membrane. The exterior of the cell is positively charged with a larger number of sodium ions present compared
