  1. Nervous System Pages 225 - 268

  2. Nervous System Is the most complex organ system in the body. It maintains homestatisis 2 major divisions: A Central nervous system CNS and the B. Pheripheral nervous system PNS

  3. Nervous System 3 major Functions: 1. Monitors the external and internal environments 2. Integrates sensory information 3. Coordinates voluntary and involuntary responses of many other organ systems

  4. CNS Includes the brain and spinal cord Functions to integrate and coordinate sensory data and motor commands It is the seat of higher functions such as intelligence and memory and emotions

  5. PNS Includes all neural tissue outside the CNS It is divided into two divisions: A. the afferent division which brings sensory information to the CNS B. the efferent division which carries commands to muscles and glands

  6. PNS This efferent division is subdivided to the Somatic division which deals with control over skeletal muscles Autonomic nervous system ANS or visceral motor system (VNS) which provides control of involuntary smooth muscles, cardiac and glandular secretions

  7. ANS Is subdivided into two systems: A. Sympathetic system or division B. Parasympathetic system they have opposite affects on objects in the body.

  8. Cellular Organization of Neural tissue Two types of cells are found here: A. Neurons B. Neuralgia or sometimes called glial cells

  9. Structure of Neurons 4 parts 1. A cell body 2. Several branching dendrites 3. An elongate axon 4. One or more synaptic terminals

  10. Structural Classification of Neurons 3 types A. Multipolar neuron- has multiple processes extending away from the cell body. B. Unipolar neurons- the dendrites and the axons are continuous and the cell body is of to one side.

  11. Structural Classification of Neurons C. Bipolar neurons-have two processes , one dendrite and one axon with cell body between them.

  12. Functional classification of Neurons 3 functioning groups A. Sensory neurons-are part of the afferent division which convey information from both external and internal environments about 10 million

  13. Functional classification of Neurons • B. Motor neurons- there are about ½ million and they belong to the efferent division and carry information from the CNS to the organs or organ systems. • C. Interneurons or association neurons- are located entirely within the brain and spinal cord

  14. Glia cells 4 types found in the CNS 1. Astrocytes 2. Oligodendrocytes 3. Microglia 4. Ependymal

  15. Glia cells Most important Glia cell in the PNS 1. Schwann cell-cover every axon outside the CNS

  16. Table 8.1 The sequence of events at a Synaspe 4 basic steps (need to know for test)

  17. Spinal cord divisions A. Cervical vertebrae- C1-C8 B. Thoracic vertebrae- T1-T12 C. Lumbar vertebrae-L1-L5 D. Sacrum – s1-s5 nerves E. Coccygeal nerve

  18. Figure 8-14 Cross section of vertebrae

  19. Brainwaves 4 types 1. alpha 2. Beta 3. Theta 4. Delta

  20. Memory Fact memory Skill memory Short term Long term

  21. Table 8.2 Cranial nerves Olfactory (N I) Optic (N II) Oculomotor (N III) Trochlear (N IV) Trigeminal (N V) Abducens (N VI)

  22. Table 8-2 cont. Facial nerves (N VII) Vestibulocholear nerves (N VIII) Glossopharyngeal nerves (N IX) Vagus nerves( N X) Accessory Nerves (N XI) Hypoglossal Nerves (N XII)

  24. Table 8-4 Sensory and Motor pathways

  25. Sympathetic Division Includes A. Preganglionic neurons B. Ganglionic neurons C. The Adrenial medullae

  26. Parasympathetic division 1. Preganglionic neurons in the brain and in sacreal segments of spinal cord 2. Ganglionic neurons in peripheral ganglia within or adjacent to the target organs
