and Axon of Sensory
Neuron.
Transmits nerve impulse from
receptor to brain or spinal cord.
Interneuron
Dendrite, cell body,
and axon of neuron
within the brain or
spinal cord.
Serves as a processing center;
conducts nerve impulse from
sensory neuron to motor neuron.
Motor Neuron
Dendrite, cell body,
and axon of motor
neuron.

Each partnership needs to put together the
following clay materials:

2 Walnut balls of white clay

1 Walnut size terra cotta

Extrude one tube of blue, pink, and terra
cotta clay.

Roll a Marble size ball of orange clay.
Wipe hands and surfaces in-between colors!
Using the clay materials you have prepared,
build me an example of a reflex arc on your
cardstock. Make sure to at least label the
five parts of the reflex arc you took notes on
in class!
We will build the vertebrae and spinal cord
together and then you will be on your own!
Chapter 11 in your text should be a big help!
