NERVOUS SYSTEM By: Abby & Tessa

TERMS Brain- encephal/o- coordinates all activities of the body and receives and transmits messages throughout the body. Spinal Cord- myel/o- transmits nerve impulses between the brain, limbs and lower part of the body Nerves- neur/i, neur/o- receive and transmit messages to and from all parts of the body

MORE TERMS Central Nervous System (CNS)- includes the brain and spinal cord Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)- includes the 12 pairs of cranial nerves extending from the brain and the 31 pairs of spinal nerves extending the spinal cord Autonomic Nervous System (ANS)- includes the peripheral nerves and ganglia on either side of the spinal cord

DIVIDED INTO TWO SUB-DIVISION Central Nervous system (CNS)  Brain and spinal cord  Integrating and command center of the nervous system Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)  Part of nervous system that extends from the brain and spinal cord  Afferent (sensory)  Efferent (motor) 1.Cranial nerves: carry signals to and from the brain 2.Spinal nerves: carry signals to and from the spinal cord

FUNCTIONS AND ORGANIZATION OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM  The efferent (motor) division is divided into the somatic nervous system and the automatic nervous system  The automatic nervous system is further divided into the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions  The activities of the nervous system can be grouped into sensory, integrative and motor functions

NERVE TISSUE  Neurons are the nerve cells that transmit impulses  The conducting cell that transmits impulses  Structural unit of the nervous system  The other type of cell is neuroglia or glial cell  Means “nerve glue”  These cells are nonconductive and provide a support system for the neurons  They are a special type of nerve tissue  Supporting cells are neuroglia, protect and nourish the nerouns and they are capable of mitosis

NERVE IMPULSES  The ability to respond to a stimulus (excitability) and transmit impulses (conductivity)  At rest the outside of a neuron is positive charge and has a higher concentration inside  The cell membrane of non conducting neuron is polarized with an abundance of sodium ions outside the cell and an abundance of potassium ions and negatively charged proteins inside cell  A stimulus alters the permeability of cell membrane  In response to a stimulus the cell membrane becomes permeable to sodium ions  They enter cell and depolarize(sodium diffuses) the membrane Followed by reverse polarization  Saltatory conduction occurs in myelinated fibers where the action potential jumps from node to node  To initiate an impulse is called a threshold (liminal) stimulus

CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM  The brain is surrounded by the cranium and the spinal cord is protected by the vertebrae  In addition to bone the CNS is surrounded by connective tissue membranes called Meninges and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)  Meninges  The outer layer is tough white fibrous connective tissue  The middle layer is the arachnoid whish resembles a cobweb in looks and contains blood vessel underneath  The innermost layer is pia matter it is delicate and thin and tightly bound to the surface of the brain and spinal cord

CONT.  The spinal cord consist if a central core of gray matter surrounded by white matter  Gray matter consists of neuron cell bodies  White matter is myelinated nerve fibers  Two enlargements of the spinal cord are in the cervical and sacral regions  The primary sensory area of the brain is the post central gyrus in the parietal lobe  Ascending tracts carry sensory impulses to brain  corticospinal tracts are descending tracts that begin in the cerebral cortex
