1 Essentials of Human Anatomy & Physiology Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Elaine N. Marieb Chapter 7 The Nervous System

2 Functions of the Nervous System Slide 7.1a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Sensory input – gathering information  To monitor changes occurring inside and outside the body  Changes = stimuli  Integration  To process and interpret sensory input and decide if action is needed

3 Functions of the Nervous System Slide 7.1b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Motor output  A response to integrated stimuli  The response activates muscles or glands

4 Structural Classification of the Nervous System Slide 7.2 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Central nervous system (CNS)  Brain  Spinal cord  Peripheral nervous system (PNS)  Nerve outside the brain and spinal cord

5 Functional Classification of the Peripheral Nervous System Slide 7.3a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Sensory (afferent) division  Nerve fibers that carry information to the central nervous system Figure 7.1

6 Functional Classification of the Peripheral Nervous System Slide 7.3b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Motor (efferent) division  Nerve fibers that carry impulses away from the central nervous system Figure 7.1

7 Functional Classification of the Peripheral Nervous System Slide 7.3c Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Motor (efferent) division  Two subdivisions  Somatic nervous system = voluntary  Autonomic nervous system = involuntary Figure 7.1

8 Organization of the Nervous System Slide 7.4 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Figure 7.2

9 Nervous Tissue: Support Cells (Neuroglia) Slide 7.5 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Astrocytes  Abundant, star-shaped cells  Brace neurons  Form barrier between capillaries and neurons  Control the chemical environment of the brain Figure 7.3a

10 Nervous Tissue: Support Cells Slide 7.6 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Microglia  Spider-like phagocytes  Dispose of debris  Ependymal cells  Line cavities of the brain and spinal cord  Circulate cerebrospinal fluid Figure 7.3b, c

11 Nervous Tissue: Support Cells Slide 7.7a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Oligodendrocytes  Produce myelin sheath around nerve fibers in the central nervous system Figure 7.3d

12 Nervous Tissue: Support Cells Slide 7.7b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Satellite cells  Protect neuron cell bodies  Schwann cells  Form myelin sheath in the peripheral nervous system Figure 7.3e

13 Nervous Tissue: Neurons Slide 7.8 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Neurons = nerve cells  Cells specialized to transmit messages  Major regions of neurons  Cell body – nucleus and metabolic center of the cell  Processes – fibers that extend from the cell body

14 Neuron Anatomy Slide 7.9a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Cell body  Nissl substance – specialized rough endoplasmic reticulum  Neurofibrils – intermediate cytoskeleton that maintains cell shape Figure 7.4a

15

16 Nerve Fiber Coverings Slide 7.12 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Schwann cells – produce myelin sheaths in jelly-roll like fashion  Nodes of Ranvier – gaps in myelin sheath along the axon Figure 7.5

17 Neuron Cell Body Location Slide 7.13 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Most are found in the central nervous system  Gray matter – cell bodies and unmylenated fibers  Nuclei – clusters of cell bodies within the white matter of the central nervous system  Ganglia – collections of cell bodies outside the central nervous system

18 Functional Classification of Neurons Slide 7.14a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Sensory (afferent) neurons  Carry impulses from the sensory receptors  Cutaneous sense organs  Proprioceptors – detect stretch or tension  Motor (efferent) neurons  Carry impulses from the central nervous system

19 Functional Classification of Neurons Slide 7.14b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Interneurons (association neurons)  Found in neural pathways in the central nervous system  Connect sensory and motor neurons

20 Neuron Classification Slide 7.15 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Figure 7.6

21 Structural Classification of Neurons Slide 7.16a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Multipolar neurons – many extensions from the cell body Figure 7.8a

22 Structural Classification of Neurons Slide 7.16b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Bipolar neurons – one axon and one dendrite Figure 7.8b

23 Structural Classification of Neurons Slide 7.16c Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Unipolar neurons – have a short single process leaving the cell body Figure 7.8c

24 Fire your synapses Build a Neuron!

25 1.Using the materials at hand build a motor neuron 2.Be sure to include: - dendrite cell body axon myelin sheath schwann cell nodes of Ranvier axon terminal synapse neurotransmitter 3.Include a description of the role each of the above structures plays in nerve cell function. 4.Surround your nerve cell with: astrocytes, microglial cells, and Oligodendrocytes. 5.Explain the supporting role these cells play in nerve tissue Build a Motor Neuron!

26 Functional Properties of Neurons Slide 7.17 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Irritability – ability to respond to stimuli  Conductivity – ability to transmit an impulse  The plasma membrane at rest is polarized  Fewer positive ions are inside the cell than outside the cell

27 Starting a Nerve Impulse Slide 7.18 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Depolarization – a stimulus depolarizes the neuron’s membrane  A deploarized membrane allows sodium (Na + ) to flow inside the membrane  The exchange of ions initiates an action potential in the neuron Figure 7.9a–c

28 Resting Membrane Potential

29 Nerve Impulse Propagation Slide 7.20 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  The impulse continues to move toward the cell body  Impulses travel faster when fibers have a myelin sheath Figure 7.9c–e

30 Action Potentials

31 Continuation of the Nerve Impulse between Neurons Slide 7.21 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Impulses are able to cross the synapse to another nerve  Neurotransmitter is released from a nerve’s axon terminal  The dendrite of the next neuron has receptors that are stimulated by the neurotransmitter  An action potential is started in the dendrite

32 How Neurons Communicate at Synapses Slide 7.22 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Figure 7.10
