1 NUTS AND BOLTS to get started

2 Planes and terms Superior-inferior Medial- lateral Dorsal-ventral
Rostral-Caudal

5

6 Coronal or Frontal Planes

7 The basic unit of the nervous system

8 Similarity to other cells

9 Shwann cells vs Oligodendrocytes

10

11 White matter and gray matter

12 Myelin Staining in the Spinal cord

13 A brief Consideration of the PNS; an artificial division

14 The vertebral column

15

16

17 Each vertebra houses a spinal cord segment

18 Each segment is similar

19 Dorsal = sensory Ventral = motor

20

21 Each segment gives rise to nerve pairs

22 And the column collectively gives rise to 30 peripheral nerve pairs

23

24 Each nerve pair contains thousands of incoming and outgoing axons

25

27

28 The Somatic Branch of the PNS
- Provides all somatosensory information to the central nervous system (brain)

29 Sensory dermatomes

30 The Somatic Branch of the PNS relays motor output to skeletal muscles
(Not smooth muscle)

31 The other subdivision of the PNS-the ANS

32 Sympathetic activation may be magnified by adrenal gland

33 THE CNS
