Nervous System
%%Meninges%%
Dura mater \n ·Double-layered external covering \n ·Periosteum – attached to surface of the \n skull \n ·Meningeal layer – outer covering of the \n brain \n ·Folds inward in several areas
Pia mater layer \n ·Internal layer \n ·Clings to the surface of the brain \n · Arachnoid \n ·Middle layer \n ·Web-like
Meningitis – an inflammation of the meninges may \n be bacterial or viral. If spreads to the brain, the \n inflammation is called encephalitis. It is \n diagnosed by taking a sample of the cerebral \n spinal fluid.
%%Cerebrospinal Fluid%%
Similar to blood plasma composition \n · Formed by the choroid plexus \n · Forms a watery cushion to protect the \n brain \n · Circulated in arachnoid space, \n ventricles, and central canal of the \n spinal cord
TEST REVIEW:
Functions Of The Nervous System
- Sensory Input- gathering information
- Integration- process and interpret sensory imput
- Motor Output- activates muscles or glands
- Central Nervous System (CNS)- Brain/Spinal Cord
- Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)- Nerve outside the brain/spinal cord
Sturcural Classification Of The Nervous System
Sensory Imput→Integration→Motor Output
Soatic Sensory Fibers-
Visceral Sensory Fibers-
Oligodendrocytes- What Do They Do?
Schwann Cells- Forms the myelin sheath around the nerve fibers
Neurons- Nerve Cells
Dendrite-
Axon- conduct impulses away from the cell body
Nodes Of Ranvier- gaps in myelin sheath along the axon
White Matter-
Gary Matter-
(White And Gray Matter Diffrences)
Mylein Sheath-
Interneurons- connect sensory and motor neurons
Multipolar Cell Body-
Unipolar Cell Body-
Bipolar Cell Body-
Myelinated-
Unmyelinated-
Why? (terms above)
Nerve Impulses- fibers that have a myelin sheath jump from node of ranvier along the ength of fiber. No current can flow across myelin insulation. This daster type of impulse is called saltaory conduction.

Meningitis – an inflammation of the meniges may \n be bacterial or viral. If spreads to the brain, the \n inflammation is called encephalitis. It is \n diagnosed by taking a sample of the cerebral \n spinal fluid.
Cerebrospinal Fluid \n · Similar to blood plasma composition \n · Formed by the choroid plexus \n · Forms a watery cushion to protect the brain \n · Circulated in arachnoid space, ventricles, and central canal of the spinal cord
BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER \n • Brain MUST have a constant internal environment \n • If the brain were exposed to certain chemicals of the body there would be uncontrolled neural activity \n • Neurons are kept separated from bloodborne substances by a BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER
@@Dur/o- Dura Mater@@
Blood Brain Barrier \n · Includes the least permeable capillaries of the body \n · Some water-soluble substances are allowed thru \n · Water \n · Glucose \n · Essential amino acids \n · Excludes many potentially harmful substances \n · Urea, toxins, proteins, most drugs \n · Useless against some substances \n ·Fats and fat soluble molecules \n ·Respiratory gases \n ·Alcohol
Traumatic Brain Injuries \n · Concussion - Slight brain injury \n ·No permanent brain damage \n · Contusion \n ·Nervous tissue destruction occurs \n ·Nervous tissue does not regenerate \n ·Intracranial Hemorrhage – bleeding from ruptured vessels \n · Cerebral edema \n ·Swelling from the inflammatory response \n ·May compress and kill brain tissue
Cerebrovascular Accident (CVA) \n · Commonly called a stroke \n · The result of a ruptured blood vessel \n supplying a region of the brain \n · Brain tissue supplied with oxygen from \n that blood source dies \n · Loss of some functions or death may \n result
Alzheimer’s Disease \n · Progressive degenerative brain disease \n · Mostly seen in the elderly, but may begin in middle age \n · Structural changes in the brain include abnormal protein deposits and twisted fibers within neurons \n · Victims experience memory loss, irritability, confusion and ultimately, hallucinations and death
Spinal Cord \n · Extends from the medulla oblongata to the region of T12 \n · Below T12 is the cauda equina (a collection of spinal nerves) \n · Enlargements occur in the cervical and lumbar regions
Spinal Cord Anatomy \n · Exterior white mater – conduction tracts
· Internal gray matter - mostly cell bodies \n ·Dorsal (posterior) horns \n ·Anterior (ventral) horns
Central canal filled with cerebrospinal \n fluid
Meninges cover the spinal cord \n · Nerves leave at the level of each vertebrae \n ·Dorsal root \n ·Associated with the dorsal root ganglia – collections of cell bodies outside the central nervous system \n ·Ventral root
Peripheral Nervous System \n · Nerves and ganglia outside the central nervous system \n · Nerve = bundle of neuron fibers \n · Neuron fibers are bundled by connective tissue
Structure of a Nerve \n · Endoneurium surrounds each fiber \n · Groups of fibers are bound into fascicles by perineurium \n · Fascicles are bound together by epineurium
Classification of Nerves \n · Mixed nerves – both sensory and motorfibers \n · Afferent (sensory) erves – carry impulses toward the CNS \n · Efferent (motor) nerves – carry impulses away from the CNS
Cranial Nerves \n · 12 pairs of nerves that mostly serve the head and neck \n · Numbered in order, front to back \n · Most are mixed nerves, but three are sensory only
Cranial Nerves \n · I Olfactory nerve – sensory for smell \n · II Optic nerve – sensory for vision \n · III Oculomotor nerve – motor fibers to eye muscles \n · IV Trochlear – motor fiber to eye muscles Cranial Nerves
· V Trigeminal nerve – sensory for the face; motor fibers to chewing muscles \n · VI Abducens nerve – motor fibers to eye muscles \n · VII Facial nerve – sensory for taste; motor fibers to the face \n · VIII Vestibulocochlear nerve – sensory for balance and hearing
· IX Glossopharyngeal nerve – sensory for taste; motor fibers to the pharynx \n · X Vagus nerves – sensory and motor fibers for pharynx, larynx, and viscera \n · XI Accessory nerve – motor fibers to neck and upper back \n · XII Hypoglossal nerve – motor fibers to tongue

The Senses \n · General senses of touch \n ·Temperature \n ·Pressure \n ·Pain \n · Special senses \n ·Smell \n ·Taste \n ·Sight \n ·Hearing \n ·Equilibrium
The Eye and Vision \n · 70 percent of all sensory receptors are \n in the eyes \n · Each eye has over a million nerve fibers \n · Protection for the eye \n ·Most of the eye is enclosed in a bony orbit \n ·A cushion of fat surrounds most of the eye
Accessory Structures of the Eye \n · Eyelids \n · Eyelashes
Meibomian glands – modified sebacious glands produce an oily secretion to lubricate the eye
Ciliary glands – modified sweat glands between the eyelashes
The Reflex Arc \n · Reflex – rapid, predictable, and involuntary responses to stimuli
Types of Reflexes and Regulation \n · Somatic reflexes \n ·Activation of skeletal muscles \n · Autonomic Reflexes \n ·Smooth muscle regulation \n ·Heart and blood pressure regulation \n ·Regulation of glands \n ·Digestive system regulation
Central Nervous System (CNS) \n · CNS develops from the embryonic \n neural tube \n ·The neural tube becomes the brain and \n spinal cord \n ·The opening of the neural tube becomes \n the ventricles \n ·Four chambers within the brain \n ·Filled with cerebrospinal fluid
