Chapter I28
-Nervous ISystem: Ian Ianimal Iorgan Isystem Icomprised Iof Ia Inetwork Iof Ispecialized Iinteracting Icells
I(neurons) Ithat Ifunctions Iin Ithe Idetection, Iprocessing Iand Iresponse Ito Iinternal Iand Iexternal Istimuli.

INervous Isystem Iis Idivided Iinto Itwo Ifunction Iparts; ICentral Inervous Isystem Iand IPeripheral Inervous

Isystem

-Three IMain IFunctions:
1. Sensory IInput: Iconduct Isignals Ifrom Ireceptors Ito ICNS.
2. Integration: Ianalysis I& Iinterpretation Iof Isensory Isignals, I& Iformation Iof Iappropriate
Iresponses.

3. Motor IOutput: Iconduct Isignals Ifrom ICNS Ito Ieffectors Ithat Iexecute Ia Iresponse.
-The ICentral INervous ISystem: Icomprised Iof Ithe Ibrain I& Ispinal Icord.
Brain: Imaster Icontrol Icenter.
Spinal Icord: Iconveys Iinformation Ito Ithe Ibrain; Iintegrates Isimple Ireflex Iresponses.
ICavities: Ifilled Iwith Icerebrospinal Ifluid; IVentricles Iof Ithe Ibrain, Icentral Icanal Iof Ithe Ispinal

Icord I& Isurrounding Ithe Ibrain.

-Peripheral INervous ISystem: Icomprised Iof Inerves Iand Iganglia Ioutside Ithe ICNS Ithat Icarry Isignals
Iinto I& Iout Iof Ithe ICNS. ICranial I& Ispinal Inerves; IConnecting Iganglia. ICarries Iinfo Ito Iand Ifrom ICNS

-Cranial INerves: Itwelve Ipairs Iof Inerves Ithat Iarise Idirectly Ifrom Ithe Ibrain, Inot Ifrom Ithe Ispinal Icord,
Iand Ipass Ithrough Iseparate Iapertures Iin Ithe Iskull.

-Ganglia: Iclusters Iof Ineuron Icell Ibodies.
-Nerves: Ibundles Iof Ineurons Iwrapped Iin Iconnective Itissue.
-Neurons: Ifunctional Iunits Iof Ithe Inervous Isystem; Iperceives Istimuli Iand Itransmits/conducts
Iinformation I(impulses) Ito Iother Icells. IThree Imain Itypes:

1. Sensory Ineurons: Iconvey Isignals Ifrom Isensory Ireceptors Ito Ithe ICNS.
2. Interneurons: Iare Ilocated Ientirely Iin Ithe ICNS, Iintegrate Iinformation I& Isend Iit Ito Imotor
Ineurons.

3. Motor Ineurons: Itransmit Iimpulses Ifrom Ithe Icentral Inervous Isystem Ito Imuscles Ieffectors
ItoIeffect Icontraction

-Process Iof Ineurons:
1. Sensory Ireceptor Idetects Istretch Istimulus.
2. Sensory Ineuron Isends Iimpulse Ito Ithe ICNS I(spinal Icord).
3. Impulse Iis Itransferred Ifrom Ithe ICNS Ito Imotor Ineurons
4. And Iinterneurons.
-Motor Ineurons I& Isensory Ineurons I(of Ithe IPNS) Iare Igenerally Ilonger Ithan Iinterneurons. IThese
IareImyelinated Ito Ihelp Ispeed Iup Iimpulse Itransmission I(part Iof Ithe Ifunction Iof Ithe Imyelin Isheath).

-Interneurons I(of Ithe ICNS) Iare Ifrequently Inon Imyelinated I(e.g. Ias Iin Ithe I“gray Imatter” Iof Ithe Ispinal
Icord), Ibecause Ifirst Ithey Iare Irelatively Ishort, Iand Ithus Idon’t Ineed Ito Ibe Ias Ifast Ias Ithe Iothers; Iand

Isecond, Ithey Ioften Iinteract Iwith Iaxons Iof Iadjacent Ineurons.

-Neurons Iare Imade Iup Iof:
Cell IBody: Icontains Ithe Inucleus Iand Iother Iorganelles.
Dendrites: Ireceive Isignals Ifrom Isensory Ireceptors Ior Iother Ineurons.
Axon: Iportion Iof Ineuron Ithat Itransmits Iimpulses Ito Iother Ineurons Ior Icells.
Myelin ISheath: Ia Isheath Iof Icells Ithat Iinsulate Ithe Iaxon Iand Ispeeds Iup Itransmit Iprocess
ISchwann Icells Iin Ithe IPNS; IOligodendrocytes Iin Ithe ICNS.

-Schwann Icells: Ithe Isupporting Icells Iof Ithe IPNS. IThey Iwrap Ithemselves Iaround Isingle Inerve Iaxons,
Imaking Iup Ia Isingle Isegment Iof Ian Iaxon's Imyelin Isheath

-Glial ICells
Astrocytes: Itransfer Inourishment Ifrom Icapillaries Ito Ithe Ineuron.

-Tracking Ian Iaction Ipotential:
1. Resting Istate: IVoltage-gated INa+ Iand IK+ Ichannels Iare Iclosed; Iresting Ipotential Iis Imaintained Iby
Iungated Ichannels.

2. Depolarization: IA Istimulus Iopens Isome INa+channels; Iif Ithreshold Iis Ireached, Ian Iaction Ipotential
Iis Itriggered.

3. Additional INa+channels Iopen, INa Irushes Iin IK+ Ichannels Iare Iclosed; Iinterior Iof Icell Ibecomes
Imore Ipositive.

4. Repolarization: I Na+ Ichannels I close I and I inactivate; I K +channels I open, I and I K+ Irushes I out;
I interior Iof Icell Iis Imore Inegative Ithan Ioutside.

5. The IK+Ichannels Iclose Irelatively Islowly, Icausing Ia Ibrief Iundershoot.
