Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
An axon is an extension that carries impulses away from the neuron cell body. Dendrites are short, often highly branched extensions of the cell body. The synapse or synaptic cleft is the junction, or space, between the axon of one neuron and the dendrites of the next. A neurotransmitter is a chemical released by the axon that enables nerve impulses to cross the synapse and reach the dendrites.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
World War I marked the first emergency training of nurses. The Army School of Nursing was established; Annie W. Goodrich wrote the curriculum. Hundreds of women were trained in this abbreviated program.
