Meninges And Cerebrospinal Fluid
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF): produced by the choroid plexus, it
cushions the brain and spinal cord against impact
Meningitis and Encephalitis
• Meningitis
– Infection of the
meninges (linings) of
the brain, as well the
CSF between them
• Encephalitis
– Infection of the brain
itselfRight hemisphere of a brain
infected with meningitis –
there is pus visible over the
surface

Cerebrospinal Fluid• Produced by choroid plexus from blood plasma
• Clear, colorless, containing a high concentration of salts
• Involved in excreting wastes from the brain (excess neurotransmitter, etc.)
• Circulates around the brain in the subarachnoid space, fills ventricles and central
canal of spinal cord (source for spinal tap)
• Cushions brain from shock and sudden changes in pressure

Cerebrospinal Fluid• Excess CSF is continuously absorbed into dural sinuses (blood
filled spaces which run through the dura mater and drain into the
jugular veins of the neck)

The Peripheral Nervous
System1) Somatic Nervous System
- Sensory systems and skeletal muscles involved in movement
2) Autonomic Nervous System (self-regulating) - Internal “motor” (efferent) system working all the time
a. Sympathetic Nervous System
- (arousing = alarm “fight or flight”)
b. Parasympathetic Nervous System
- (calming = “business as usual”)
c. Enteric Nervous System
- Alimentary canal (gut) effector system
SOMATIC NERVOUS
SYSTEM• Sensory
– Carries sensory signals from skin, skeletal muscles
(proprioception), joints, bones, and other sensory systems to
CNS = afferents to CNS
• Motor
– Carries instructions from CNS to skeletal muscles = efferents
from CNS
• Cranial nerves
– Deal with smell, vision, equilibrium (balance), hearing, taste,
etc
– 12 pairs of cranial nerves: 1 & 2 purely sensory, others
contain both sensory and motor fibers
– Project from the brain

The Brain
The human brain is similar in
organization to that of other mammals,
but differs in size
![Page 11: Anatomical Terms for Direction - cribMEcribme.com/cu/data/Psychology/Biological Psychology/anatomy_of_t… · Anatomical Terms for Direction. 2 Support and Protection of the Brain](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041007/5eae4891e596fb5ef3786df9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

The Brain
• Brain size is not necessarily predictive about what
the brain DOES or CAN DO
• The size of a particular brain region relative to the
rest of the brain gives an indication of that
region’s importance for the animal
– Examples of proportionally large brain regions:
– Gorillas and humans: visual centers
– Dolphins and bats: echolocation regions
– Racoons: somatosensation and digit representation
– Rats: olfactory bulbs

5 Major Divisions of the Adult
Brain
Telencephalon is
on top
- The rest are in
alphebetical order
The Hindbrain: Myelencephalon &
Metencephalon
• Reticular Formation– Involved in sleep, attention,
movement, maintenance of muscletone, various cardiac and respiratoryreflexes
• Pons and Medulla– Many ascending and descending tracts
(autism link?)
– Help control respiration and heartrhythms, blood pressure, coughing,sneezing, swallowing and vomiting
• Cerebellum– Important for fine motor control and
cognitive process that require precisetiming (ex. playing a musicalinstrument)
![Page 14: Anatomical Terms for Direction - cribMEcribme.com/cu/data/Psychology/Biological Psychology/anatomy_of_t… · Anatomical Terms for Direction. 2 Support and Protection of the Brain](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041007/5eae4891e596fb5ef3786df9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
The Hindbrain: Myelencephalon &
Metencephalon
• Damage to the Pons
– may result in double vision and partial
paralysis of the body
• Damage to the Medulla
– may cause death
– may create loss of pain and
temperature sensation and make
swallowing difficult
• Damage to the Cerebellum
– may influence body movements and
hinder walking
– may make sitting upright impossible
– may cause cognitive problems?
Alterations in the Pons: A Link to Autism?
• Several nuclei in the posterior pons are smaller
than normal in individuals with autism

15
Midbrain: Mesencephalon
• Superior Colliculus
– visual function
• Inferior Colliculus
– auditory function
• Substania nigra
– Contains dopaminergic
neurons that communicate
with the caudate nucleus
and putamen in the basal
ganglia
– Parkinson’s disease
Forebrain: Diencephalon
• Thalamus (at the top of
the brainstem)
– Processes and relays most
sensory information (ex.
sight, sound, feelings over
the body)
• Hypothalamus
– Involved in almost all
complex behavior: feeding,
sexual behavior, sleeping,
temperature regulation,
fighting, emotional behavior
• Pituitary Gland
– Releases hormones
![Page 16: Anatomical Terms for Direction - cribMEcribme.com/cu/data/Psychology/Biological Psychology/anatomy_of_t… · Anatomical Terms for Direction. 2 Support and Protection of the Brain](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041007/5eae4891e596fb5ef3786df9/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
Forebrain: Diencephalon
• Damage to the Thalamus
– Damage to this area may result in
reduced or boosted sensitivity to
heat, cold, pain and pressure
• Damage to the Hypothalamus
– may result in a variety of effects
ranging from problems regulating
body temperature to emotional
disturbances
– diabetes insipidus, a condition
characterized by extreme thirst and
the excretion of large amounts of
urine

Forebrain: Telencephalon
• Cerebral cortex
– Youngest part of nervous
system
– Interprets sensory input
– Initiates voluntary
movement
– Mediates complex
cognitive processes
Fissures: furrows in the cortex
Sulci (sulcus): small furrows in
the cortex
Gyri (gyrus): ridges between
furrows
Forebrain: Telencephalon
• Cerebral cortex
– Frontal Lobes
• Control planning and
emotion
– Parietal Lobes
• control body senses and
taste
– Temporal Lobes
• control learning,
memory, hearing,
associations and language
– Occipital Lobes
• control vision

– Frontal Lobes
• Damage may alter a person’s ability
to execute plans and may make them
inconsiderate or passive.
• It also may hurt movement.
– Parietal Lobes
• Damage may interfere with the
recognition of touch and pain.
• It also may jumble knowledge of
where the body is in space.
– Temporal Lobes
• Damage may result in an inability to
recognize faces, even those of close
family members.
• It also can result in dramatic
hallucinations and loss of memory.
– Occipital Lobes
• Damage can harm eyesight, possibly
even causing blindness.

Functionally Related Structures:
The Basal Ganglia
• Striatum
– Caudate (“tail-like”)
– Putamen
- receives dopaminergic axons
from substantia nigra in the
midbrain
- this pathway degenerates in
Parkinson’s Disease –
characterized by rigidity,
tremors, limited voluntary
movement
• Globus Pallidus
Plays a major role in voluntary motor responses
