3 Organization of the Nervous System Structural Classification Structural Classification Functional classification Functional classification

4 Structural Classification Central nervous system (CNS) consists of brain and spinal cord. Central nervous system (CNS) consists of brain and spinal cord. Peripheral nervous system (PNS) consists of spinal and cranial nerves. Peripheral nervous system (PNS) consists of spinal and cranial nerves.

5 Functional classification The sensory, or afferent. The sensory, or afferent. The motor, or efferent. The motor, or efferent.

6 The somatic nervous system voluntary nervous system voluntary nervous system The autonomic nervous system involuntary nervous system involuntary nervous system Sympathetic and parasympathetic Sympathetic and parasympathetic

7 Functional anatomy of the brain Cerebral hemispheres. Cerebral hemispheres. Diencephalon. Diencephalon. Brain stem. Brain stem. Cerebellum. Cerebellum.

9 Cerebral Hemispheres The most superior and largest part of the brain. The most superior and largest part of the brain. The entire surface of the cerebral hemispheres have elevated ridges of tissue called gyri,separated by shallow grooves called sulci The entire surface of the cerebral hemispheres have elevated ridges of tissue called gyri,separated by shallow grooves called sulci Fissures are the deeper grooves which separate large regions of the brain Fissures are the deeper grooves which separate large regions of the brain

10

11 The cerebral hemispheres are separated by a single deep fissure the longitudinal fissure The cerebral hemispheres are separated by a single deep fissure the longitudinal fissure Other fissures divide each cerebral hemispheres into number of lobes(frontal, pariatal, temporal and occipital) Other fissures divide each cerebral hemispheres into number of lobes(frontal, pariatal, temporal and occipital) Somatic sensory area is located in the parietal lobe posterior to the central sulcus Somatic sensory area is located in the parietal lobe posterior to the central sulcus The body represented upside-down manner The body represented upside-down manner The visual area is located in the in the posterior part of the occipital lobe The visual area is located in the in the posterior part of the occipital lobe

12

13 The auditory is located in the temporal lobe The auditory is located in the temporal lobe The olfactory area is found deep inside the temporal lobe The olfactory area is found deep inside the temporal lobe The primary motor area is anterior to the central sulcus in the frontal lobe. The primary motor area is anterior to the central sulcus in the frontal lobe. Broca ’ s area is found at the base of the precentral gyrus Broca ’ s area is found at the base of the precentral gyrus Speech area is located at the junction of the temporal, parietal, and occipital lobes. Speech area is located at the junction of the temporal, parietal, and occipital lobes.

15 The cell bodies of neurons are found only in the outermost gray matter of cerebrum,the cerebral cortex The cell bodies of neurons are found only in the outermost gray matter of cerebrum,the cerebral cortex The deeper cerebral white matter is composed of fiber tracts carrying impulses to or from the cortex. The deeper cerebral white matter is composed of fiber tracts carrying impulses to or from the cortex.

17 Diencephalon The major structures of diencephalon are the thalamus, hypothalamus and epithlamus The major structures of diencephalon are the thalamus, hypothalamus and epithlamus
