1. PowerPoint ® Lecture Slide Presentation by Patty Bostwick-Taylor, Florence-Darlington Technical College Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PART D 7 The Peripheral Nervous System

2. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)  Nerves and ganglia outside the central nervous system  Nerve = bundle of neuron fibers  Neuron fibers are bundled by connective tissue

3. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PNS: Structure of a Nerve  Endoneurium surrounds each fiber  Groups of fibers are bound into fascicles by perineurium  Fascicles are bound together by epineurium

5. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PNS: Classification of Nerves  Mixed nerves  Both sensory and motor fibers  Sensory (afferent) nerves  Carry impulses toward the CNS  Motor (efferent) nerves  Carry impulses away from the CNS

6. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PNS: Cranial Nerves  12 pairs of nerves that mostly serve the head and neck  Only the pair of vagus nerves extend to thoracic and abdominal cavities  Most are mixed nerves, but three are sensory only

7. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PNS: Cranial Nerves  I Olfactory nerve—sensory for smell  II Optic nerve—sensory for vision  III Oculomotor nerve—motor fibers to eye muscles  IV Trochlear—motor fiber to eye muscles

8. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PNS: Cranial Nerves  V Trigeminal nerve—sensory for the face; motor fibers to chewing muscles  VI Abducens nerve—motor fibers to eye muscles  VII Facial nerve—sensory for taste; motor fibers to the face  VIII Vestibulocochlear nerve—sensory for balance and hearing

9. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PNS: Cranial Nerves  IX Glossopharyngeal nerve—sensory for taste; motor fibers to the pharynx  X Vagus nerves—sensory and motor fibers for pharynx, larynx, and viscera  XI Accessory nerve—motor fibers to neck and upper back  XII Hypoglossal nerve—motor fibers to tongue

15. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PNS: Spinal Nerves  There is a pair of spinal nerves at the level of each vertebrae for a total of 31 pairs  Formed by the combination of the ventral and dorsal roots of the spinal cord  Named for the region from which they arise

17. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PNS: Anatomy of Spinal Nerves  Spinal nerves divide soon after leaving the spinal cord  Dorsal rami—serve the skin and muscles of the posterior trunk  Ventral rami—form a complex of networks (plexus) for the anterior

24. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PNS: Autonomic Nervous System  Motor subdivision of the PNS  Consists only of motor nerves  Also known as the involuntary nervous system  Regulates activities of cardiac and smooth muscles and glands  Two subdivisions  Sympathetic division  Parasympathetic division

25. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PNS: Differences Between Somatic and Autonomic Nervous Systems  Nerves  Somatic: one motor neuron  Autonomic: two motor neurons- preganglionic and postganglionic nerves  Effector organs  Somatic: skeletal muscle  Autonomic: smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands

26. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PNS: Differences Between Somatic and Autonomic Nervous Systems  Neurotransmitters  Somatic: always use acetylcholine  Autonomic: use acetylcholine, epinephrine, or norepinephrine

27. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PNS: Comparison of Somatic and Autonomic Nervous Systems Figure 7.27

28. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PNS: Anatomy of the Sympathetic Division  Originates from T 1 through L 2  Ganglia are at the sympathetic trunk (near the spinal cord)  Short pre-ganglionic neuron and long post- ganglionic neuron transmit impulse from CNS to the effector  Norepinephrine and epinephrine are neurotransmitters to the effector organs

31. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PNS: Anatomy of the Parasympathetic Division  Originates from the brain stem and S 1 through S 4  Terminal ganglia are at the effector organs  Always uses acetylcholine as a neurotransmitter

32. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PNS: Autonomic Functioning  Sympathetic—“fight or flight”  Response to unusual stimulus  Takes over to increase activities  Remember as the “E” division  Exercise, excitement, emergency, and embarrassment

33. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PNS: Autonomic Functioning  Parasympathetic—“housekeeping” activites  Conserves energy  Maintains daily necessary body functions  Remember as the “D” division  digestion, defecation, and diuresis

36. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Development Aspects of the Nervous System  The nervous system is formed during the first month of embryonic development  Any maternal infection can have extremely harmful effects  German Measles (rubella)  Lack of O2  The hypothalamus is one of the last areas of the brain to develop  Regulates body temperature

37. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Development Aspects of the Nervous System  No more neurons are formed after birth, but growth and maturation continues for several years  The brain reaches maximum weight as a young adult

38. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Tracking Down CNS Problems  Electroencephalography- produces a recording of brain activity called an EEG  Four types of waves  Alpha- awake but relaxes  Beta- awake alert state  Theta- common in children but not normal adults  Delta- occur during sleep  Sleep and coma- slower waves  Fright, seizures, some drug overdoses- fast waves  Flat EEG is considered clinical death

39. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Cerebral Palsy  Temporary lack of O2 is one cause  Voluntary muscles become spastic  ½ have seizures  Largest single cause of physical disabilities in children

40. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Diseases  Anencephaly  Failure of cerebrum to develop  Spina Bifida  Veterbrae form incompletely
