• Neuron= nerve cell• Basic structural unit of
the nervous system

Synapses
• The axon of one neuron lies close to the dendrites of many other neurons
• Space in between them is called a synapses• Impulses coming from one axon jump the
synapse to get to the dendrite of another neuron
![Page 10: The Nervous System. Nervous System Complex, highly organized system which coordinates all the activities of the body](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d975503460f94a81418/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Neurotransmitters
• Chemicals located in axon • Allow nerve impulses to pass from one neuron
to another

CNS – brain (cont’d)
• Diencephalon – area between cerebrum and midbrain- contains thalamus and hypothalamus– Thalamus – acts as a relay center and directs sensory
impulses to cerebrum. Damage may cause increased sensitivity to pain or loss of consciousness.
– Hypothalamus – regulates autonomic nervous system, temp, appetite, water balance, sleep , blood vessel constriction and dilation, emotions (anger, fear, pleasure, pain, affection)
![Page 31: The Nervous System. Nervous System Complex, highly organized system which coordinates all the activities of the body](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d975503460f94a81418/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
CNS –brain (cont’d)
• Midbrain- section below the cerebrum at top of brain stem. Responsible for conducting impulses between brain parts and certain eye and auditory reflexes.
![Page 32: The Nervous System. Nervous System Complex, highly organized system which coordinates all the activities of the body](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d975503460f94a81418/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
CNS – brain (cont’d)
• Pons – located in brain stem• Conducting messages to other parts of the
brain• Reflexes such chewing, tasting, saliva
production, assisting with respiration• Medulla Oblongata – lowest part of brain stem
which connects to spinal cord – Regulates heartbeat, respiration, swallowing,
coughing, blood pressure
![Page 33: The Nervous System. Nervous System Complex, highly organized system which coordinates all the activities of the body](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d975503460f94a81418/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Meninges
• 3 membranes which cover and protect the brain and spinal cord– Dura mater – thick, tough, outer layer– Arachnoid membrane – delicate and weblike
middle layer– Pia mater - closely attached to brain and spinal
cord. Contains blood vessels that nourish the nerve tissue
![Page 34: The Nervous System. Nervous System Complex, highly organized system which coordinates all the activities of the body](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d975503460f94a81418/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Ventricles
• Brain has 4 ventricles which are hollow spaces filled with cerebrospinal fluid.– CSF serves as a shock absorber to protect brain
and spinal cord.– Transports nutrients to CNS– Removes metabolic wastes
![Page 35: The Nervous System. Nervous System Complex, highly organized system which coordinates all the activities of the body](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d975503460f94a81418/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
• Spinal cord continues down from medulla oblongata and ends at 1st or 2nd lumbar vertebrae.
• Surrounded and protected by vertebrae• Responsible for reflex actions– Afferent (sensory) nerves carry messages from all
parts of the body to the brain and spinal cord– Efferent (motor) nerves carry messages from brain
and spinal cord to muscles and glands
![Page 36: The Nervous System. Nervous System Complex, highly organized system which coordinates all the activities of the body](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d975503460f94a81418/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

Peripheral Nervous System
• Consists of somatic and autonomic nervous system
• Somatic: 12 pairs of cranial nerves and 31 pairs of spinal nerves
• Autonomic : controls involuntary actions of body
![Page 38: The Nervous System. Nervous System Complex, highly organized system which coordinates all the activities of the body](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d975503460f94a81418/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Peripheral Nervous System: Somatic
• Responsible for sight, hearing, taste, smell• Touch, pressure, pain, temp• Send out impulses for voluntary and
involuntary muscle control
![Page 39: The Nervous System. Nervous System Complex, highly organized system which coordinates all the activities of the body](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d975503460f94a81418/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Peripheral Nervous System: autonomic
• Controls involuntary functions of nervous system
• 2 divisions: sympathetic and parasympathetic• Sympathetic nervous system: fight or flight-
prepares the body for action in time of emergency by increasing heart rate, blood pressure, respirations
• Parasympathetic nervous system: counteracts actions of sympathetic nervous system
