3
New cards
transmission
how is the message conveyed?

5
New cards
encoding
convert information from one system to another
6
New cards
verbal communication
complex process involving all the anatomical/ physiological subsystems of the speech production and processing system
7
New cards
3 reasons SLPs need to study anatomy
communication is very complex and can only be fully understood and appreciated by an understanding of normal anatomy, clinical management, work with interdisciplinary terms

32
New cards
brain and spinal cord
2 main structures of the CNS
33
New cards
motor outputs
always flow out, never into the nervous system
34
New cards
sensory input
always flow in towards nervous system
35
New cards
CNS
responsible for mediation of all voluntary/ involuntary activity
36
New cards
12 pairs of cranial nerves, 31 pairs of spinal nerves
2 structures of the PNS
37
New cards
autonomic nervous system ANS
involved with involuntary life processes, stuff that happens automatically (blood pressure, gland secretion, digestion)
38
New cards
somatic nervous system SNS
involved with production of observable events and reception of environmental changes- not automatically we have some degree of control
39
New cards
motor, sensory
2 divisions of SNS
40
New cards
motor
responsible for bodily functions that are under out conscious/ voluntary control
41
New cards
pyramidal, extrapyramidal
2 divisions of the motor component of SNS
42
New cards
pyramidal
initiation of voluntary motor acts
43
New cards
extrapyramidal
responsible for background tone and movement supporting the primary motor acts (refines the motion started by pyramidal- how fast do u want to throw the ball)
44
New cards
sensory
provides us with information about the function of the skeletal muscles, the environment and nonviseral actives
45
New cards
neuron
basic unit of the nervous system, unique because it has the ability to receive, transit, and process information
46
New cards
cell body, axon, dendrites
what is a neuron composed of
47
New cards
cell body
aka soma, composed of protoplasm bounded by a thin, semi-permeable membrane, functions to keep the cell alive (carried out metabolism, etc. to maintain life of the cell)
48
New cards
axon
single long efferent process which conducts nerve impulse away from the cell body, typically to another neuron, muscle, or gland
49
New cards
dendrites
multiple, short, A-pherent extension of the cell body, responsible for convey impulses towards the cell body
50
New cards
A-pherent
something is being conducted towards
51
New cards
E-pherent
something is conducted away
52
New cards
dendrite tree
arrangement of the dendrites, looks like a tree without leaves
53
New cards
axon hillock
point at which the axon joins the soma, axons remain single processes until their point of termination- once terminated the axon branches out to become telodendria
54
New cards
telodendria
plays a role in synaptic transmission
55
New cards
bouton
important because it contains structures known as synaptic vesicles
56
New cards
synaptic vesicles
storage units for near-transmitters unless nerve is activated the euro-transmissitters aren't active
57
New cards
myelin
extends from axon hillock to the terminal bouton, a fat-like substance insulates the axon
58
New cards
oliodendrites
CNS myelin is formed by
59
New cards
neurolimal/ shwane cells
PNS myelin is formed by
60
New cards
nodes of ranvier
serrate the myelin purpose and they speed up neural transmission
61
New cards
nervous system development
what does the process of myelination correlate to
62
New cards
unipolar neuron
a single process that divides into 2 branches that are structurally identical, both processes are icons and they function E-pherent
63
New cards
bipolar neuron
intends off both poles, multiple axon extensions coming off the singular pol/ multiple dendrite extensions from other pole
64
New cards
stereotypical neuron
large # of relatively short dendrites, a single long axon
65
New cards
nerves
PNS, carry multiple types of information, sensory, motor, or both
66
New cards
tracts
CNS, only have a single function, they are either sensory or motor, can't be both
67
New cards
neural transmission
way neural impulses get from one part of the body to the next, electrochemical charge, sodium potassium flow in and out of nerve, creates a static charge
68
New cards
inhibitory effect
someone neurotransmitters have this, if they do have this there is decreased tissue stimulation, impulses pass from one structure to the next at a slower speed, post synaptic structure has a decreased level of reaction
69
New cards
excitatory effect
increase on tissue stimulation, impulses cross the cleft quicker, higher level of reaction
70
New cards
neural-glial cells
in the CNS the non-nervous tissue is known as
71
New cards
neural-lima cells
PNS non nervous tissue known as
72
New cards
phagocytes
role is to consume necrotic tissue in the nervous system, consume dead neurons and replace them
73
New cards
brain
enlargement specialized portion of the spinal cord, makes us human because of our higher level thought processes, complex language system
74
New cards
left hemisphere
hemisphere dominant for speech and language, specialized for process of analysis, favors discrete, sequential, rapidly changing information
75
New cards
right hemisphere
hemisphere favors spacial, holistic elements, looks at things asa whole, emotions, face recognition, prosody, melody, art and music
76
