BRAIN CELL ACTIVITY

YOUR BRAIN…

There are 2 kinds of brain cells…

YOUR BRAIN… There are 2 kinds of brain cells… –1. Glial – (Support)

YOUR BRAIN… There are 2 kinds of brain cells… –1. Glial – (Support) –2. Neurons – (Cells that allow thinking & learning)

NEURONS We have 100,000,000,000 neurons…

NEURONS We have 100,000,000,000 neurons… –About 30,000 would fit on the head of a pin…

NEURONS

CELL BODY –Holds DNA –Controls cell

NEURONS

Dendrites –RECEIVE information –Pull information into cell body –Each Neuron can grow up to 20,000 Dendrites

NEURONS

AXON –SENDS information –Carries information away –Connects with other cells

Neural Pathway “Path that information travels from one cell to the next”… CREATE A NEURAL PATHWAY AT YOUR TABLE WITH YOUR NEIGHBORS… –Remember that Dendrites “RECEIVE”, while Axons “SEND”

SYNAPSE The axon’s and dendrites don’t actually touch… There is a gap or “SYNAPSE”

SYNAPSE The axon’s and dendrites don’t actually touch… There is a gap or “SYNAPSE” This SYNAPSE (or gap) is bridged with chemicals

SYNAPSE The axon’s and dendrites don’t actually touch… There is a gap or “SYNAPSE” This SYNAPSE (or gap) is bridged with chemicals –These chemicals are called NEUROTRANSMITTERS (Brain chemicals)
