§  Brain and Spinal Cord §  Interneurons

§  Connecting neurons with the CNS §  Connecting sensory with motor neurons

Central Nervous System (CNS)

§  Everything lying OUTSIDE the CNS

Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)

§  Sensory neurons

§  Carry impulses TOWARD the CNS

§  Motor neurons §  Carry impulse AWAY from CNS to an EFFECTOR organ

(muscle, gland, etc.)

PNS - composed of…

receptors

Zombie Nervous System… §  Zombies are driven by their brains

§  Thus, the CNS must be functioning

§  Zombies have movement §  Thus,the PNS is also needed

§  But research shows that the PNS no longer functions normally.

Zombie Nervous System… §  Further research shows that the

autonomic system no longer functions §  What reasons can you give to confirm this fact?

Zombie Nervous System… §  Further research shows that the

autonomic system no longer functions §  What reasons can you give to confirm this fact? -Autonomic deals with output to smooth muscle and glands…. As Zombies “age” they decompose further and thus loose their glandular tissue, muscle and body “tone”! - Although it is “AUTOMATIC” and zombie’s move toward rotting flesh, the do not “think” with their stomachs because often they no longer have stomachs! Just so you know!

Reflex Arc •  Main FUNCTIONAL unit of the nervous system

•  Allows us to react to internal and external stimulus

1.  Reflex is initiated 2.  Impulse moves down the SENSORY NEURON 3.  Impulse reaches the spinal cord 4.  Impulse moves down the MOTOR NEURON

•  Stimulates the quads and inhibits the hamstrings

The Brain

Pons

CEREBELLUM “Little Brain” •  Organizes outgoing motor impulses so motions are

coordinated and fluid •  Coordinates muscular activity (balance and muscle

coordination) •  Maintains equilibrium (body position and motion)

11

CEREBRUM “the Brain” •  Coordinates and processes sensory input and

coordinates motor responses •  Sensation, thought processes and motor control •  Responsible for CONSCIOUSNESS and higher thinking

Thalamus •  “Switchboard”

•  Receives and routes all incoming sensory information to parts of the brain

Corpus Callosum •  Nerve tract connecting two sides of the brain

•  Information moving from one half to the other is routed through this section

Hypothalamus •  Autonomic control center

•  Hunger, thirst, sleep, body temperature •  Endocrine Control

•  Connects brain to endocrine organs by releasing hormones that influence pituitary secretions (eg. GnRH, ADH)

Pituitary •  Releases hormones that control ENDOCRINE system

•  Thus, brain controls functions including sexual maturity, menstruation, metabolic rate, and [water] in blood

•  ANTERIOR PITUITARY - TSH, LH, FSH •  POSTERIOR PITUITARY - stores/releases ADH, oxytocin

Medulla Oblongata •  Controls VITAL FUNCTIONS

•  Heart rate, respiration, blood pressure, many reflexive actions (coughing, vomiting, hiccups, swallowing)

Pons •  Connects cerebellum with the cerebrum

•  Regulates respiration, sleep, bladder control, hearing, taste, eye movements, posture, facial sensation etc…..

Meninges •  Layers of tissue that surround brain and spinal cord

•  Protects the CNS

Zombie Nervous System… §  Zombies have no ability to regulate

there consumption of food. What part(s) of the brain is no longer functioning in Zombies?

Zombie Nervous System…

§  Finally, how do we know that zombie’s brains still have some function?

Zombie Nervous System… §  Finally, how do we know that zombie’s brains still

have some function?

§  Answer: §  Because we need to sever the spinal cord or

destroy the brain in order to “kill” them!
