| 3. Diencephalon | 4. Corpora quadrigemina |
| 1. | Medulla oblongata | 2. | Pons |
| 3. | Mid brain | 4. | Cerebellum |
Myelin sheath around the axons in the PNS is secreted by:
| 1. | oligodendrocytes | 2. | axons |
| 3. | Schwann cells | 4. | ependymal |
What causes the movement of the synaptic vesicles towards the membrane during transmission of impulse across a chemical synapse?
| 1. | Sodium | 2. | Calcium |
| 3. | cAMP | 4. | cGMP |

The primary commissural region of the brain consisting of white matter tracts that connects the left and right cerebral hemispheres is called as:
| 1. | corpus striatum | 2. | corpus luteum |
| 3. | corpus callosum | 4. | corpus spongiosum |
Consider the two statements:
| I: | Electric synapses are rare in our system. |
| II: | Impulse transmission across electric synapse is always faster than across a chemical synapse. |
1. Both I and II are correct and II explains I
2. Both I and II are correct and II does not explain I
3. Only I is correct
4. Only II is correct

The afferent neuron receives signal from a sensory organ and transmits the impulse to the CNS via:
1. Dorsal root of the spinal nerve
2. Ventral root of the spinal nerve
3. Cranial nerve
4. Intermediolateral horn of spinal cord grey mater
