Alzheimer's disease - progressive disease with degeneration of nerve endings in the
cortex of the brain
arachnoid mater - weblike middle membrane of meninges
associative neuron - carries messages from sensory neuron to motor neuron; also
called interneuron
autonomic nervous system - collection of nerves, ganglia, and plexuses through which
visceral organs, heart, blood vessels, glands, and smooth (involuntary) muscles receive
stimulation
axons - nerve cell structure that carries impulses away from cell bodies to dendrites
blood-brain barrier - choroid plexus capillaries in the brain differ in their selective
permeability thus drugs carried in the blood-stream are not able to penetrate the brain
tissue
brain stem - portion of brain other than cerebral hemispheres and cerebellum
brain tumor - a mass or growth or abnormal cells in the brain
central nervous system - consists of the structures of the brain and spinal cord
cerebellum - structure of the brain behind the pons and below the cerebrum
cerebral aqueduct - a narrow canal containing the third and fourth ventricles of the brain
cerebral cortex - a layer of gray matter covering the upper and lower surface of the
cerebrum
cerebral palsy (CP) - a disturbance in voluntary muscle action due to brain damage
cerebral ventricles - four lined cavities within the brain filled with cerebrospinal fluid; also
called lateral ventricles
cerebrospinal fluid - a substance that forms within the four brain ventricles from the
blood vessels of the choroid plexus; this serves as a shock absorber to protect the brain
and spinal cord
