AFAMS
Function of the Nervous System(Insert Dari)
Three basic functions
(1) sensing changes through receptors
• fullness of stomach or sun on your face
(2) interpreting those changes
(3) Reacting to those changes through:
• muscle contractions• gland secretions

Neurons (Insert Dari) A neuron is a nerve cell that
transmits information by electrical and chemical signals.
A neuron is composed of:
1) Cell body
2) Dendrite
3) Axon
4) Myelin sheath
A network of
neurons is called
a nerve.

How Neurons Work(Insert Dari)
Each neuron receives an impulse and must pass it on to the next neuron.
Nerve impulses are sent from the axon of one nerve cell to the dendrite of the next cell.
The area between the two nerve cells is called the synapse.

AFAMS
Nerve Synapse (Insert Dari) (1) The nerve impulse
travels from the dendrites through the cell body and down the axon.
(2) When the impulse reaches the axon it releases a chemical called a neurotransmitter.
(3) The neurotransmitter then crosses the synapse and binds to a receptor on the dendrite of the next neuron in order to transfer the signal.
Note: The synapse is a site of action for various medications.

Classification of Neuronsعصبی حجرات وظیفوی بندی تصنیف
• Sensory neurons
• transport sensory information from skin, muscles, joints, sense organs & viscera to the brain.
• Motor neurons
• send motor nerve impulses to muscles & glands from the brain.

Sensory Signal Transmission(Insert Dari)
Insert Dari Hot water(Insert Dari)
Sensory receptors sends nerve impulses via sensory neurons and spinal cord to the brain telling the brain the water temperature is too hot.
(Insert Dari)
AFAMS
Motor Signal Transmission(Insert Dari)
Insert Dari Insert Dari
The brain then sends information back the the muscles of the hand/arm via motor neurons to turn the temperature of the water down.

Nervous System Divisions
عصبی سیستم شعبات• Central nervous system (CNS)
• consists of the brain and spinal cord
• Peripheral nervous system (PNS)
• consists of cranial and spinal nerves that contain both sensory and motor fibers
• connects CNS to muscles, glands & all sensory receptors

Organization of the Nervous System
CNS is brain and spinal cord
PNS is everything else

AFAMS
Structures of the Brain(Insert Dari)
Frontal lobe- responsible for problem solving and judgment and motor function.
Temporal lobe- is involved with memory and hearing
Parietal lobe - manages sensation, handwriting, and body position
Occipital lobe- contains the brain's visual processing system
Cerebellum- is responsible for coordination and balance.

• voluntary
• motor neurons to skeletal muscles
• Autonomic nervous systems
• involuntary
• from sensory neurons within organs to the brain
• motor neurons to cardiac muscle and glands
• sympathetic division (speeds up heart rate)
• parasympathetic division (slow down heart rate)
• Enteric nervous system (ENS)• sensory & motor neurons control GI tract

Disorders of the Nervous System(Insert Dari)
AFAMS
Disorders of the Central Nervous System (Insert Dari)
These conditions affect the brain or spinal cord.
Stroke – an interruption of blood supply to the brain causing damage to the brain tissue.
Paralysis – loss of muscle function due to stroke or damage to the spinal cord.
Meningitis – inflammation of the membrane that protects the spinal cord and brain, caused by viral or bacterial infection.
(Insert Dari)
AFAMS
Disorders of the Central Nervous System Continued(Insert)
Dementia – a decrease in memory, attention, problem solving, decision making and understanding. This is due to aging and neuron degeneration.
Insert Dari
AFAMS
Disorders of the Peripheral Nervous System (Insert Dari)
Neuropathy – damage to a nerve due to disease or trauma.
Symptoms can include pain, loss of function and numbness.
There are many different types of neuropathy.
