Back a.Somatic nervous system b.Autonomic nervous The 2 subdivisions of MOTOR are
5
Back 1.the central nervous system (brain/spine) 2. muscles / glands Motor (efferent) division carries an impulse from _________ to ________.
6
Back 1.Nerve fibers or sense organs or “senses” 2.the central nervous system (spine/brain) Sensory (afferent) division carries an impulse from ________ to ________.
7
Back a.Nerves outside the brain and spinal cord The Peripheral nervous system (PNS) includes:
8
Back Brain & Spinal cord The Central nervous system (CNS) includes
9
The sections of sensory & motor regions of the brain and the amount of brain “power” they “supply” to different parts of the body can be visualized using the Back homunculus
10
The surface of the brain has ridges called _________ and shallow grooves called ___________ Back gyri- (“ji’ re”) & sulci- “(sul’ki”)
11
Provides coordination of body movements. Takes information for inner ear & the rest of the body Back Cerebellum
12
Contains important control centers including: a. Heart rate control b. Blood pressure regulation c. Breathing d. Swallowing e. Vomiting Back Medulla Oblongata
13
Helps regulate body temperature, Controls water balance & Regulates metabolism Back Hypothalamus
14
A rapid, predictable, and involuntary responses to stimuli is called a Back reflex
15
Grey matter is found where in the brain? Back Outer layers
16
The Broca’s area is involved in our ability to _____________ & is located on the _____ side of the brain only. Back Speak / left
17
Fissures (deep grooves) divide the cerebrum into how many lobes? Back Four (4)
18
The largest part of your brain is called the Back cerebrum
19
Brain has the least permeable capillaries of the body which causes Back Brain-blood barrier
20
Attaches the Meningeal layer to the brain & is web-like Back Arachnoid layer
21
The general name of the coverings of the brain Back Meninges
22
Cerebrospinal fluid is similar in composition to Back Blood plasma
23
This forms a watery cushion to protect the brain Back Cerebrospinal fluid
24
Back Irritability The ability to respond to stimuli & convert to a nerve impulse is called
25
Back Depolarization The exchange of ions which initiates an action potential in the neuron
26
Back myelin sheath Impulses travel faster when fibers have a…
27
Once the Nerve Impulse reaches the axon terminal neurotransmitters are released across the Back Synapse / synaptic gap/ cleft
28
The nerve impulse is also known as Back Action potential
29
Spider-like phagocytes which Dispose of debris Back Microglia or glia
30
Name the types of cells that cover a nerve cell to increase the speed of the nerve impulse Back Schwann cell
