The Nervous System Chapter 9

Learning Targets By end of this lesson, you should be able to: Differentiate between the central and peripheral nervous systems. Subdivide the peripheral nervous system into smaller groupings. Describe the structure and function of a nerve cell (neuron).

General Functions of the Nervous System Sensory : gathers info about changes occurring within and around the body; sensory receptors, at ends of peripheral nerves, send signals to CNS examples – light, oxygen levels, body temperature Integrative : information is “brought together,” interpreted, to create sensations, create thoughts, add to memory, make decisions, etc. Motor : sending of signals to muscles and/or glands to elicit a response Bottom Line = Maintenance of Homeostasis

Organs of the nervous system can be divided into two groups: The central nervous system (CNS) is composed of the brain and spinal cord. These neurons cannot regenerate if damaged.

The peripheral nervous system (PNS) is made up of peripheral nerves that connect the CNS to the rest of the body. These neurons can regenerate if damaged. 31 pairs of spinal nerves 12 pairs of cranial nerves

Peripheral Nervous System PNS can be subdivided into 2 divisions: (1) Autonomic –Cranial & spinal nerves connecting CNS to heart, stomach, intestines, glands –Controls unconscious activities

Peripheral Nervous System (2) Somatic –Cranial & spinal nerves connecting CNS to skin & skeletal muscles –Oversees conscious activities

Organization of Nervous System Nervous System Central Nervous System Peripheral Nervous System Brain & spinal cord Autonomic N.S.Somatic N.S.

Peripheral Nervous System Autonomic division of the nervous system can be subdivided into 2 divisions: (1) Parasympathetic –Decreases heart rate, bronchiole dilation, blood glucose, blood to skeletal muscle –Increases digestion, pupil size, urinary output –“rest and digest” (2) Sympathetic –Decreases digestion, pupil size, urinary output –Increases heart rate, bronchiole dilation, blood glucose, blood to skeletal muscle –“fight or flight”

Parasympathetic vs. Sympathetic Divisions

Nervous Tissue is composed of two major cell types: neurons and neuroglial cells.

Neurons are made up of a cell body, dendrites, and axons. Dendrites receive information. Axons send information. Larger axons are enclosed by sheaths of myelin produced by Schwann cells. Narrow gaps in the myelin sheath between Schwann cells are called nodes of Ranvier.

Nerves are cable- like bundles of axons. Neuroglial cells provide physical support, insulation (myelin), and nutrients for neurons.

Learning Targets By end of this lesson, you should be able to: List and describe the ways of categorizing neurons based on structure. List and describe the ways of categorizing neurons based on function. Label the parts of a neuron.

Classification of Neurons Neurons can be classified based on function or by structure. Structure: (1) Multipolar Many processes arising from cell body Brain or spinal cord (2) Bipolar 2 processes (1 from each end of cell body) Ear, eyes, nose (3) Unipolar Single process extends from cell body Outside of brain & spinal cord

Classification of Neurons Classifying by Function:

Classification of Neurons (by function) Sensory Neurons – (afferent) have specialized receptor ends that sense stimuli and then carry impulses from peripheral body parts to brain or spinal cord. Can be unipolar or bipolar.

Interneurons – lie entirely within the brain or spinal cord; direct incoming sensory impulses to appropriate parts for processing and interpreting. Motor Neurons – (efferent) carry impulses out of the brain or spinal cord to effectors (muscles, glands). Interneurons and motor neurons are multipolar.
