Structure and Control of Movement Chapter 7 The Nervous System Structure and Control of Movement

General Nervous System Functions Control of the internal environment Works with endocrine system Voluntary control of movement Programming spinal cord reflexes

Organization of the Nervous System Central nervous system (CNS) Brain and spinal cord Peripheral nervous system (PNS) Neurons outside the CNS Motor division Efferent fibers transmit impulses from CNS to effector organs Sensory division Afferent fibers transmit impulses from receptors to CNS

Parts of a Neuron

Illustration of a Synapse

Electrical Activity in Neurons Resting membrane potential At rest, the neurons are negatively charged Determined by concentrations of ions (Na+, K+, Cl-) across membrane

Depolarization

Electrical Activity in Neurons Resting membrane potential At rest, the neurons are negatively charged Determined by concentrations of ions (Na+, K+, Cl-) across membrane Action potential Occurs when depolarization reaches threshold Permeability of the membrane changes, allowing Na+ into the cell, making the interior positively charged Repolarization Change in membrane permeability, restoring resting membrane potential

Depolarization

Repolarization

Neurotransmitters and Synaptic Transmission Neurons communicate across synapses using neurotransmitters Released from presynaptic membrane Binds to receptor on post synaptic membrane Excitatory transmitters Cause depolarization Inhibitory transmitter Cause hyperpolarization – can’t depolarize

Basic Structure of a Chemical Synapse

Somatic Motor Function Somatic motor neurons of PNS Responsible for carrying neural messages from spinal cord to skeletal muscles Motor unit Motor neuron and all the muscle fibers it innervates Innervation ratio Number of muscle fibers per motor neuron
