  • SOMATIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
    RELAY INFORMATION BETWEEN SKIN, SKELETAL MUSCLES, AND CNS
    CONSCIUSLY CONTROL THIS PATHWAY
    VOLUNTARY
  • AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
    RELAY INFORMATION FROM CNS TO ORGANS AND (CARDIAC)
    NOT CONSCIOUSLY CONTROL
    INVOLUNTARY

    SYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
    PARASYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
  • AUTONOMIC
    BODY AT REST
  • SYMPATHETIC
    FLIGHT AND FIGHT RESPONSE
  • NEURONS
    BASIC UNIT STRUCTURE AND CELLS THAT CONDUCT IMPULSES
  • NEURON
    IT IS MADE UP OF CELL BODY, DENDRITES, AND AXON
  • NEURONS (DIAGRAM)
    DENDRITE
    AXON
    CELL BODY
    MYELIN SHEATH
    NODES OF RANVIER
    AXON TERMINAL
  • DENDRITES
    BRANCH-LIKE EXTENSIONS
    RECEIVE IMPULSES AND CARRY THEM OWARD CELL BODY
  • AXON
    SINGLE EXTENSION
    CARRY IMPULSES AWAY FROM THE CELL BODY
  • THREE TYPES OF NEURONS
    SENSORY NEURONS
    INTERNEURONS
    MOTOR NEURONS
  • SENSORY NEURONS
    CARRY IMPULSES INSIDE ND OUTSIDE THE BODY TO BRAIN AND SPINAL CORD
  • INTERNEURONS
    FOUND WITHIN BRAIN AND SPINAL CORD
    PROCESS INCOMING IMPULSES AND PASS THEM TO MOTOR NEURONS
  • MOTOR NEURONS
    CARRY IMPULSES AWAY FROM BRAIN AND SPINAL CORD
  • LEAK MEMBRANE CHANNELS
    ALWAYS OPEN AND IONS CAN LEAK ACROSS THE MEMBRANE DOWN THEIR CONCENTRATION GRADIENT
    THERE ARE 50 TO 100 TIMES MORE K+ LEAK CHANNELS THAN NA+ LEAK CHANNELS
    THE K+ LEAK CHANNELS HAVE THE GREATEST CONTRIBUTION
  • HOW IS AN IMPULSE TRANSMITTED
    STIMULUS EXCITES SENSORY NEURON
    DEPOLARIZATION CREATES A WAVE OF CHANGING CHARGES DOWN THE AXON
    IMPULSE MOVE ACROSS SYNAPSE WITH THE HELP OF NEUROTRANSMITTERS
  • DEPOLARIZATION
    A CHANGE IN CHARGE DUE TO SODIUM IONS
  • REFLEXES
    RAPID, PREDICTABLE AND INVOULUNTARY RESPONSE
  • REFLEX ARCS
    OCCUR OVER NEURAL PATHWAY INVOLVE CNS AND PNS
  • SOMATIC REFLEXES
    INCLUDE ALL REFLEXES THAT STIMULATE THE SKELETAL
  • AUTONOMIC REFLEXES
    REGULATE THE ACTIVITY OF SMOOTH MUSCLES, THE HEART, AND GLANDS (SALIVARY AND PUPILLARY REFLEXES)

    STIMULUS
    GRAY MATTER
  • CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
    Neural tube – a simple tube wherein the CNS first appear during embryonic development
    Ventricles – chambers formed by the enlarged four regions of the brain
    Brain – about two good fistfuls of pinkish gray tissue, wrinkled like a walnut and with the texture of cold oatmeal, weighs a little over three pounds.
  • CEREBRAL HEMISPHERES
    The paired cerebral hemispheres, collectively called the cerebrum
    The paired cerebral hemispheres, collectively called the cerebrum
  • SPINAL CORD
    Approximately 17 inches (42 cm) long. Extends from the foramen magnum to the first or second lumbar vertebra. 31 pairs of spinal nerves.
  • Cauda equina
    collection of spinal nerves at the inferior end of the vertebral canal and it looks so much like a horse’s tail.
  • Gray Matter of the SC and Spinal Roots
    Looks like a butterfly or the letter H in cross section.
    Two posterior projections are the dorsal/posterior horns; the two anterior projections are the ventral/anterior horns.
    The gray matter surrounds the central canal of the cord, which contains CSF
    Dorsal root ganglion – when damaged, sensation from the body area served will be lost.
    Dorsal and ventral roots fuse to form the spinal nerves.
  • Peripheral Nervous System Structure of a Nerve:
    Nervea bundle of neuron fibers found outside the CNS.
    Endoneurium – connective tissue sheath that surrounds each fiber
    Perineurium – coarser connective tissue that wraps groups of fibers (fascicles)
    Epineurium – a tough fibrous sheath that bound all the fascicles together
  • Sulci
    shallow grooves
  • Fissures
    deeper grooves, separate large regions of the brain
  • Longitudinal fissure
    single deep fissure that separates the cerebral hemispheres
