The Nervous System Chapter 35-2 The nervous system controls and coordinates functions throughout the body and responds to internal and external stimuli.

Neurons The messages carried by the nervous system are electrical signals called impulses. The cells that transmit these impulses are called neurons.

Neurons are classified according to the direction an impulse travels. Sensory neurons carry impulses from the sense organs to the spinal cord and brain. Motor neurons carry impulses from the brain and spinal cord to muscles and glands. Interneurons connect sensory and motor neurons and carry impulses between them.

Structures of a Neuron: Carries impulses towards cell body Carries impulses away from cell body

The Resting Neuron When a neuron is resting (not transmitting an impulse), the outside of the cell has a net positive charge and the inside a net negative charge. The electrical charge across the cell membrane of a neuron at rest is known as the resting potential.

The Moving Impulse An impulse begins when a neuron is stimulated by another neuron or by the environment.

This reversal of charges is called a nerve impulse, or an action potential.

The impulse continues to move along the axon. An impulse at any point of the membrane causes an impulse at the next point along the membrane.

Threshold A stimulus must be of adequate strength to cause a neuron to transmit an impulse. The minimum level of a stimulus that is required to activate a neuron is called the threshold.

The Synapse A nerve impulse travels from one cell to another by passing from an axon to a dendrite. The location at which a neuron can transfer an impulse to another cell is called a synapse. Neurotransmitters are chemicals used by a neuron to transmit an impulse (across synapses) from one cell to the next.

35-3: Divisions of the Nervous System The human nervous system has two major divisions: central nervous system peripheral nervous system

The Central Nervous System (CNS) The central nervous system relays messages, processes information, and analyzes information. The central nervous system consists of the brain and the spinal cord.

The Brain

Cerebrum: Largest part of brain; controls the voluntary, or conscious, activities of the body Cerebellum: coordinates body movements Brain Stem: connects the brain and spinal cord; has two parts (medulla oblongata and the pons) Thalamus: receives messages from the sense organs and relays info to the proper region of the cerebellum for processing Hypothalamus: control center for recognition and analysis of hunger, thirst, fatigue, anger, and body temperature

The Spinal Cord The spinal cord is the main communications link between the brain and the rest of the body. Certain information, including some kinds of reflexes, are processed directly in the spinal cord. A reflex is a quick, automatic response to a stimulus.

The Peripheral Nervous System The peripheral nervous system is all of the nerves and associated cells that are not part of the brain and the spinal cord. The sensory division: transmits impulses from sense organs to the CNS. The motor division: transmits impulses from the CNS to the muscles or glands.

The Motor Division The motor division is divided into two parts: Somatic nervous system Autonomic nervous system

The Somatic Nervous System Regulates activities that are under conscious control, such as the movement of skeletal muscles. Some somatic nerves are involved with reflexes.

Reflex arc: a sensory receptor, sensory neuron, motor neuron, and effector that are involved in a quick response to a stimulus.

The Autonomic Nervous System The autonomic nervous system regulates involuntary activities. The autonomic nervous system is subdivided into two parts, which have opposite effects on the same organ system to help maintain homeostasis.
