9. 3.01 Remember the structures of the nervous system 9 BRAIN Structures of the central nervous system: BRAIN Cerebrum Cerebrum  Divided into two hemispheres (right and left)  Frontal lobe  Occipital lobe  Parietal lobe  Temporal lobe

10. 3.01 Remember the structures of the nervous system 10 BRAIN Structures of the central nervous system: BRAIN Diencephalon Diencephalon   Located between the cerebrum and the midbrain  Structures  Thalamus  Hypothalamus  Pineal body  Pituitary gland

11. 3.01 Remember the structures of the nervous system 11 BRAIN Structures of the central nervous system: BRAIN Diencephalon Diencephalon  Thalamus – spherical mass of gray matter; deep in the cerebral hemispheres  Hypothalamus – lies below the thalamus; part of the limbic system  Pineal body – endocrine system gland  Pituitary gland – endocrine system gland

12. 3.01 Remember the structures of the nervous system 12 BRAIN Structures of the central nervous system: BRAIN Limbic system Limbic system  Located in the center of the brain  Encircles the top of the brain stem.  Composed of the amygdala, hippocampus, cingulated gyrus, and other intricate structures. (Informational only for reference.)

16. 3.01 Remember the structures of the nervous system 16 BRAIN Structures of the central nervous system: BRAIN Ventricles - Ventricles - lined cavities deep within the brain   filled with cerebrospinal fluid   Choroid plexus – rich network of blood vessels

17. 3.01 Remember the structures of the nervous system 17 Spinal Cord Structures of the central nervous system: Spinal Cord  Surrounded by the vertebrae, meninges, and cerebrospinal fluid

18. 3.01 Remember the structures of the nervous system 18 Spinal Cord Structures of the central nervous system: Spinal Cord Peripheral nervous system Peripheral nervous system  12 cranial nerves  31 pairs of spinal nerves

23. 3.01 Remember the structures of the nervous system 23 Autonomic nervous system Structures of the central nervous system Autonomic nervous system Sympathetic nervous system Sympathetic nervous system  Extends from the base of the brain, along both sides of the spinal column  These nerves connect to all internal organs Parasympathetic nervous system  The vagus nerve connects the medulla with organs of the upper body  The pelvic nerve emerges from the spinal cord and connects with the organs of the lower body

24. 3.01 Remember the structures of the nervous system 24 Somatic nervous system Structures of the central nervous system Somatic nervous system  These nerves are located along the spinal cord.  Connect skeleton, muscles and joints to the brain.
