  2. Overview OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM

  3. Functions of the Nervous System Sensory input — gathering information To monitor changes occurring inside and outside the body Changes = stimuli Integration To process and interpret sensory input and decide if action is needed

  4. Functions of the Nervous System Motor output A response to integrated stimuli The response activates muscles or glands

  11. Structural Classification of the Nervous System Peripheral nervous system (PNS) Nerves extending from the brain and spinal cord Spinal nerves — carry impulses to and from the spinal cord Cranial nerves — carry impulses to and from the brain Functions Serve as communication lines among sensory organs, the brain and spinal cord, and glands or muscles

  12. Figure 7.2

  13. Functional Classification of the Peripheral Nervous System Sensory (afferent) division Nerve fibers that carry information to the central nervous system Motor (efferent) division Nerve fibers that carry impulses away from the central nervous system

  14. Figure 7.2

  15. Functional Classification of the Peripheral Nervous System Motor (efferent) division (continued) Two subdivisions Somatic nervous system = voluntary Consciously controls skeletal muscles Autonomic nervous system = involuntary Automatically controls smooth and cardiac muscles and glands Further divided into the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems

  16. The Reflex Arc Somatic reflexes Reflexes that stimulate the skeletal muscles Example: pull your hand away from a hot object Autonomic reflexes Regulate the activity of smooth muscles, the heart, and glands Example: Regulation of smooth muscles, heart and blood pressure, glands, digestive system

  17. The Reflex Arc Five elements of a reflex: Sensory receptor – reacts to a stimulus Sensory neuron – carries message to the integration center Integration center (CNS) – processes information and directs motor output Motor neuron – carries message to an effector Effector organ – is the muscle or gland to be stimulated

  23. Central Nervous System (CNS) CNS develops from the embryonic neural tube The neural tube becomes the brain and spinal cord The opening of the neural tube becomes the ventricles Four chambers within the brain Filled with cerebrospinal fluid

  24. Spinal Cord Extends from the base of the brain stem to the first or second lumbar vertebra Provides a two-way conduction pathway to and from the brain 31 pairs of spinal nerves arise from the spinal cord

  32. PNS: Classification of Nerves Mixed nerves Both sensory and motor fibers Sensory (afferent) nerves Carry impulses toward the CNS Motor (efferent) nerves Carry impulses away from the CNS

  33. PNS: Cranial Nerves Twelve pairs of nerves that mostly serve the head and neck Only the pair of vagus nerves extend to thoracic and abdominal cavities Most are mixed nerves, but three are sensory only

  37. PNS: Cranial Nerves I Olfactory nerve — sensory for smell II Optic nerve — sensory for vision III Oculomotor nerve — motor fibers to eye muscles IV Trochlear — motor fiber to one eye muscle

  38. PNS: Cranial Nerves V Trigeminal nerve — sensory for the face; motor fibers to chewing muscles VI Abducens nerve — motor fibers to eye muscles VII Facial nerve — sensory for taste; motor fibers to the face VIII Vestibulocochlear nerve — sensory for balance and hearing

  39. PNS: Cranial Nerves IX Glossopharyngeal nerve — sensory for taste; motor fibers to the pharynx X Vagus nerves — sensory and motor fibers for pharynx, larynx, and viscera XI Accessory nerve — motor fibers to neck and upper back XII Hypoglossal nerve — motor fibers to tongue

  41. PNS: Spinal Nerves There is a pair of spinal nerves at the level of each vertebrae for a total of 31 pairs Formed by the combination of the ventral and dorsal roots of the spinal cord Named for the region from which they arise

  43. PNS: Spinal Nerve Plexuses Plexus–networks of nerves serving motor and sensory needs of the limbs Form from ventral rami of spinal nerves in the cervical, lumbar, and sacral regions Four plexuses: Cervical Brachial Lumbar Sacral
