Explanation / Answer

1. c) GABA is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter from among the following options. In addition, glycine is another main inhibitory neurotransmitter found in the brain and the spinal cord. Inhibitory neurotransmitters drive the hyperpolarization of postsynaptic membrane and thus suppressing action potentials.

2.e) All of the above are correct. Our nervous system has two parts central nervous system and peripheral nervous system. Any nerves and ganglia outside the brain and spinal cord come under the peripheral nervous system. The peripheral nervous system categorized into somatic and autonomic nervous system. The somatic part constitutes the sensory and motor neurons. Both cranial and spinal nerves are also part of the peripheral nervous system.

3. b) Intervertebral foramen.

4. c) Ependymal cells.

5. b) Posterior root ganglion also known as dorsal root ganglion/spinal ganglia.

6. c) Thalamus.

7. a) Medulla, pons.
