Nervous System
•Directs the functions of all human body systems
•100 billion nerve cells•Divided into two sections
▫Central Nervous System▫Peripheral Nervous System
Somatic Autonomic

Neurons
•Contain 3 parts▫Cell body ▫Dendrites▫Axon
Covered by ‘Myelin Sheath’•Two basic properties
▫Excitability – the ability to respond to a stimulus
▫Conductivity – the ability to transmit a signal

Neuroglias
•Cells in the nervous system ▫Support▫Connect▫Protect▫Remove
Debris from the nervous system•Do NOT transmit impulses•Form “blood-brain barrier”

Central Nervous System▫Composed of brain and spinal cord▫Brain has 4 major divisions
Brainstem Cerebellum Cerebrum Diencephalon
![Page 6: Nervous System Page 203. Nervous System Directs the functions of all human body systems 100 billion nerve cells Divided into two sections ▫Central Nervous](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48a1/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Brainstem
•Midbrain▫Visual reflexes
•Pons▫Controls respiratory functions
•Medulla oblongata▫Regulate heart and lung functions▫Swallowing, vomiting, coughing, sneezing
![Page 7: Nervous System Page 203. Nervous System Directs the functions of all human body systems 100 billion nerve cells Divided into two sections ▫Central Nervous](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48a1/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Cerebellum
•Coordinates musculoskeletal movement to maintain posture, balance, and muscle tone
![Page 8: Nervous System Page 203. Nervous System Directs the functions of all human body systems 100 billion nerve cells Divided into two sections ▫Central Nervous](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48a1/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• Cerebral cortex▫Decision making
• Frontal lobe▫Voluntary motor movements▫Emotional expression ▫Moral behavior
• Parietal lobe▫Controls and interprets the senses and tastes
• Temporal lobe▫Controls memory, equilibrium, emotion, and
hearing• Occipital lobe
▫Controls vision and various forms of expression
Cerebrum

Diencephalon
•Contains ▫Thalamus▫Hypothalamus
•Serves as relay center for sensations•Works with the Autonomic nervous
system to control heart rate, blood pressure, temperature, electrolyte balance, digestive functions, behavioral responses, and glandular activities
![Page 11: Nervous System Page 203. Nervous System Directs the functions of all human body systems 100 billion nerve cells Divided into two sections ▫Central Nervous](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48a1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Central Nervous System
•Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)▫Watery fluid- flows in and around brain and
spinal cord▫Cradles and cushions the brain
•Spinal cord▫Extends from the base of the brain – L1
![Page 12: Nervous System Page 203. Nervous System Directs the functions of all human body systems 100 billion nerve cells Divided into two sections ▫Central Nervous](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfe21a28abf838cb48a1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Meninges•Three layers of membranes that cover the
brain and spinal cord▫Dura mater
Tough, fibrous membrane that contains channels for blood to enter brain tissue
▫Arachnoid membrane Weblike structure that runs across the space
containing CSF▫Pia mater
Innermost layer, a thin membrane containing many blood vessels that nourish the spinal cord

Peripheral Nervous System
•12 pairs of cranial nerves ▫Carry impulses to and from the brain
•31 pairs of spinal nerves▫Carry messages to and from the spinal cord
and extremities of the body•Somatic Nervous System•Autonomic Nervous System
