NUTS AND BOLTS to get started
-
Planes and termsSuperior-inferiorMedial- lateralDorsal-ventralRostral-Caudal
-
Coronal or Frontal Planes
-
The basic unit of the nervous system
-
Similarity to other cells
-
Shwann cells vs Oligodendrocytes
-
White matter and gray matter
-
Myelin Staining in the Spinal cord
-
A brief Consideration of the PNS; an artificial division
-
The vertebral column
-
Each vertebra houses a spinal cord segment
-
Each segment is similar
-
Dorsal = sensoryVentral = motor
-
Each segment gives rise to nerve pairs
-
And the column collectively gives rise to 30 peripheral nerve pairs
-
Each nerve pair contains thousands of incoming and outgoing axons
-
The Somatic Branch of the PNS- Provides all somatosensory information to the central nervous system (brain)
-
Sensory dermatomes
-
The Somatic Branch of the PNS relays motor output to skeletal muscles(Not smooth muscle)
-
The other subdivision of the PNS-the ANS
-
Sympathetic activation may be magnified by adrenal gland
-
THE CNS
