Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Neurotransmitters bind to a receptor. The Nissl body is involved in protein synthesis. Neuro-transmitters do not bind to glial cells. Neurofibrils provide support for the neuron.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Regeneration is limited to myelinated fibers and generally occurs only in the PNS. Regeneration does not occur in unmyelinated neurons, myelinated neurons in the spinal cord, or postganglionic motor neurons.

The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
