1. Name the 2 DIVISIONS of the Nervous System
• CENTRAL brain and spinal cord
• PERIPHERAL all nerves outside
brain and spinal cord 2 branchesSomatic- nerves that
serve skeletal system and sense organs
Autonomic- serve smooth muscles and heart
2. Terms
• Nerve- bundle of axons wrapped in connective tissue
• Ganglion- cell bodies grouped together outside brain or spinal cord
• Tract- pathway for axons
• Nuclei- mass of cell bodies ( ganglion)
The 3 parts of a neuron
• Dendrite- conduct impulse toward cell body
• Axon- conduct impulse away from cell body
• Cell body
motor sensory
3. 4 Basic Processes of the Nervous System
• Reception- stimuli
• Transmission- Sensory input- from area to brain Afferent
• Integration- sums up input to allow brain to make decision
• Motor output- efferent- cause response
3 TYPES of NEURONS
• Sensory- afferent
• Motor- efferent
• Interneuron- in CNS (brain and spinal cord)
4. 7 Divisions of the Brain
• Brain stem Medulala Oblongata- regulate
heartbeat, breathing, BP Pons- bridge between
Cerebellum and CNS Midbrain- vision, hearing,
touch• Cerebellum- movement• Hypothalmus- hunger, sleep,
thirst• Thalmus- all sensory except
smell• Cerebrum- largest, conscious
thought
LOBES of BRAIN
• FRONTAL- motor (FM)
• TEMPORAL- speech and hearing
(EAR)• PARIETAL- sensory
(PS)• OCCIPITAL- visual
( eyes in back of head)
Misc Brain INFO
• Right side of brain controls left side of body
• Right side of brain- art, music, imagination
• Left side of brain- logic, math, science
• Brain stem is the size of your thumb
