1
1. Contrast the functions of B cells and T cells. 2. What are memory cells? 3. How do vaccines work? 4. How does HIV affect the immune system?
2
1. Draw and label the parts of a neuron. 2. Describe saltatory conduction. 3. Explain how a nerve impulse is transmitted across a neuron.
3
1. What happens at the synapse? 2. Choose 1 neurotransmitter. Describe its action. 3. What is the role of the following structures in the human brain? a) Brainstem b) Cerebellum c) Cerebrum d) Corpus callosum
4
Chapters 48 & 49 Campbell Biology – 9 th ed.
5
The anatomy of a neuron. The mechanisms of impulse transmission in a neuron. The process that leads to release of neurotransmitters, and what happens at the synapse. How the vertebrate brain integrates information, which leads to an appropriate response. Different regions of the brain have different functions.
6
Central nervous system (CNS) = brain + spinal cord Peripheral nervous system (PNS) = nerves throughout body Sensory receptors: collect info Sensory neurons: body CNS Motor neurons: CNS body (muscles, glands) Interneurons: connect sensory & motor neurons Nerves = bundles of neurons Contains motor neurons +/or sensory neurons
10
Peripheral nervous system Somatic nervous system Autonomic nervous system Sympathetic division Parasympathetic division Enteric division
13
cell body: contains nucleus & organelles dendrites: receive incoming messages axons: transmit messages away to other cells myelin sheath: fatty insulation covering axon, speeds up nerve impulses synapse: junction between 2 neurons neurotransmitter: chemical messengers sent across synapse Glia: cells that support neurons Eg. Schwann cells (forms myelin sheath)
17
Microelectrode Reference electrode Voltage recorder –70 mV
18
The Na + /K + pump (using ATP) maintains a negative potential inside the neuron.
19
Resting potential: membrane potential at rest; polarized Na + outside, K + inside cell Voltage-gated Na + channel = CLOSED stimulus Nerve impulse: stimulus causes a change in membrane potential Action potential: neuron membrane depolarizes All-or-nothing response Na + channels open Na + enters cell K + channels open K + leaves cell
21
Conduction of an action potential
23
Saltatory conduction speed: 120 m/sec
26
Chemicals released from vesicles by exocytosis into synaptic cleft Diffuse across synapse Bind to receptors on neurons, muscle cells, or gland cells Broken down by enzymes or taken back up into surrounding cells Types of neurotransmitters: Excitatory: speed up impulses by causing depolarization of postsynaptic membrane Inhibitory: slow impulses by causing hyperpolarization of postsynaptic membrane
28
Acetylcholine (ACh): stimulates muscles, memory formation, learning Epinephrine: (adrenaline) fight-or-flight Norepinephrine: fight-or-flight Dopamine: reward, pleasure (“high”) Loss of dopamine Parkinson’s Disease Serotonin: well-being, happiness Low levels Depression GABA: inhibitory NT Affected by alcohol
29
LSD/mescaline – bind to serotonin and dopamine receptors hallucinations Prozac – enhances effect of serotonin by inhibiting uptake after release Morphine, heroin – bind to endorphin receptors decrease pain perception Viagra – increase NO (nitric oxide) effects maintain erection Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) – develop senile plaques, shrinkage of brain tissue
31
Mouse Party Neural Data Matrix: Drug: Neurotransmitter(s) Involved Action of Drug: Summary Illustration
32
Simple, automatic response to a stimulus Conscious thought not required Reflex arc: 1. Stimulus detected by receptor 2. Sensory neuron 3. Interneuron (spinal cord or brain stem) 4. Motor neuron 5. Response by effector organ (muscles, glands)
35
Major Regions: forebrain, midbrain, hindbrain
36
Forebrain cerebrum Midbrain brainstem Hindbrain cerebellum
37
StructureFunction Cerebrum Information processing (learning, emotion, memory, perception, voluntary movement) Right & Left cerebral hemispheres Corpus callosum: connect hemispheres Brainstem *Oldest evolutionary part* Basic, autonomic survival behaviors Medulla oblongata –breathing, heart & blood vessel activity, digestion, swallowing, vomiting Transfer info between PNS & CNS Cerebellum Coordinate movement & balance Motor skill learning
