  • gathering information to monitor changes occurring inside and outside the body
    Sensory input
  • to process and interpret sensory input and decide if action is needed
    Integration
  • A response to integrated stimuli
    The response activates muscle or glands
    Motor Output
  • Central Nervous System is made up of the brain, spinal cord and dorsal cavity it located at bottom of occipital L1-L2
  • The function of Central Nervous System is to take information and give instruction
  • the cns is the command center
  • Nerves outside the brain and spinal cord. It is the communication lines
  • The peripheral nervous system is divided into two parts the Sensory or afferent and Motor or efferent.
  • The Motor or efferent Division is divided into two the Somatic and Autonomic.
  • The Autonomic Nervous System is divided into two parts the Sympathetic and Parasympathetic
  • Sensory or afferent division carry information to the CNS
  • Motor or efferent division carry impulses away from THE CNS
  • Sympathetic also known as fight or flight
  • parasympathetic division also known as rest and digest
  • Sympathetic response to unusual stimulus it takes over to increase activies and remember the E division
  • Parasympathetic is housekeeping activities it conserves energy and remember the D division
  • Neuron is also called as nerve cell it specialized to transmit messages
  • In the neuron anatomy there are two division the dendrites and axon
  • Axon conducts impulses away
  • dendrites conduct towards the cell body
  • Schwann cells form myelin sheath in the PNS
  • in the classification of neurons there are two types the sensory neurons and the motor neurons
  • sensory neurons carry impulses from the sensory receptors
  • motor neurons impulses from the cns to pns
  • CNS develops from the ebryonic neural tube four chambers within the brain filled with cereborspinal fluid
  • the regions of the brain are cerebral hemisphere, diencephalon, brain stem and cerebellum
  • the cerebral hemisphere is also known as cerebrum
  • Cerebral hemispheres is the largest and most complex area of the brain
  • The cerebral hemisphere has four lobes the frontal lobe, temporal lobe, parietal lobe, and occipital lobe
  • The surface of the brain is also called as cerebral cortex
  • a distinctive pattern of folds or bumps known as gyri ( gyrus ) and groove known as sulci or sulcus
  • these gyri and sulci form important landmarks that allow us to separate the brain into functional centers
  • frontal lobe is divided into two parts the primary motor area and broca
  • primary motor area sends skeletal muscle
  • the broca are involve in our ability to speak
  • Temporal lobe is responsible for gustatory, auditory and olfactory
  • occipital is responsible for visual
  • parietal for sensation
  • wernikle area is responsible for interpreting speech
  • broca area is responsible for speech production, located in the frontal lobe
