The Nervous System

The Reflex Arc Reflex – rapid, predictable, and involuntary responses to stimuli Reflex arc – direct route from a sensory neuron, to an interneuron, to an effector Figure 7.11a

Simple Reflex Arc Figure 7.11b–c

Types of Reflexes and Regulation Autonomic reflexes Smooth muscle regulation Heart and blood pressure regulation Regulation of glands Digestive system regulation Somatic reflexes Activation of skeletal muscles

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

Regions of the Brain Cerebral hemispheres Diencephalon Brain stem Cerebellum Figure 7.12b

Cerebral Hemispheres (Cerebrum) Paired (left and right) superior parts of the brain Include more than half of the brain mass Figure 7.13a

Cerebral Hemispheres (Cerebrum) The surface is made of ridges (gyri) and grooves (sulci) Figure 7.13a

Lobes of the Cerebrum Fissures (deep grooves) divide the cerebrum into lobes Surface lobes of the cerebrum Frontal lobe Parietal lobe Occipital lobe Temporal lobe

Lobes of the Cerebrum Figure 7.15a

Specialized Areas of the Cerebrum Somatic sensory area – receives impulses from the body’s sensory receptors Primary motor area – sends impulses to skeletal muscles Broca’s area – involved in our ability to speak

Sensory and Motor Areas of the Cerebral Cortex Figure 7.14

Specialized Areas of the Cerebrum Cerebral areas involved in special senses Gustatory area (taste) Visual area Auditory area Olfactory area

Specialized Areas of the Cerebrum Interpretation areas of the cerebrum Speech/language region Language comprehension region General interpretation area

Specialized Areas of the Cerebrum Figure 7.13c

Layers of the Cerebrum Gray matter Outer layer Composed mostly of neuron cell bodies Figure 7.13a

Layers of the Cerebrum White matter Fiber tracts inside the gray matter Example: corpus callosum connects hemispheres Figure 7.13a

Layers of the Cerebrum Basal nuclei – internal islands of gray matter Figure 7.13a

Diencephalon Sits on top of the brain stem Enclosed by the cerebral heispheres Made of three parts Thalamus Hypothalamus Epithalamus

Diencephalon Figure 7.15

Thalamus Surrounds the third ventricle The relay station for sensory impulses Transfers impulses to the correct part of the cortex for localization and interpretation

Hypothalamus Under the thalamus Important autonomic nervous system center Helps regulate body temperature Controls water balance Regulates metabolism

Hypothalamus An important part of the limbic system (emotions) The pituitary gland is attached to the hypothalamus

Epithalamus Forms the roof of the third ventricle Houses the pineal body (an endocrine gland) Includes the choroid plexus – forms cerebrospinal fluid

Brain Stem Attaches to the spinal cord Parts of the brain stem Midbrain Pons Medulla oblongata

Brain Stem Figure 7.15a

Midbrain Mostly composed of tracts of nerve fibers Has two bulging fiber tracts – cerebral peduncles Has four rounded protrusions – corpora quadrigemina Reflex centers for vision and hearing

Pons The bulging center part of the brain stem Mostly composed of fiber tracts Includes nuclei involved in the control of breathing

Medulla Oblongata The lowest part of the brain stem Merges into the spinal cord Includes important fiber tracts Contains important control centers Heart rate control Blood pressure regulation Breathing Swallowing Vomiting

Reticular Formation Diffuse mass of gray matter along the brain stem Involved in motor control of visceral organs Reticular activating system plays a role in awake/sleep cycles and consciousness

Reticular Formation Figure 7.15b
