Awon Lor Nervous System
-
Senses
-
-
Eyes
Componenet
Tunic layer
Fibrous layer
Sclera
A white dense connective tissue that is an anchor for the extrinsic eye muscles and gives shape and protection to eyes.
-
Vascular layer
Choroid
Helps nourish other layers and absorbs light in order to avoid light from scattering within the eyes.
-
-
Iris
It is anterior to the lens and posterior to the cornea. It's the colored part of the eyes and works with the dilation/constriction of the pupil
-
-
Posterior Segment
Filled with vitreous humor the helps transport light, supports the retina and lens, and maintain pressure within the eyes
Pathways
Cornea - Lens - Retina - Optic nerves - Optic chiasma - Optic tract - Mid brain - Thalamus - Primary visual cortex
Olfaction
-
Pathways
Olfactory sensory neurons - Olfactory bulb - Olfactory tract - Primary olfactory cortex (and Limbic region)
Gustation
Components
Facial nerve cranial nerves VII, Glossopharyngeal cranial nerves IX, Vagus cranial nerve X
Pathways
Gustation - Taste buds with receptor cells - 3 cranial nerves - Medulla Oblongata - Thalamus - Primary gustatory cortex
Ear
Components
External ear, middle ear, internal ear, and the cochlea
Pathways
Tympanic membrane - Transmit vibrations - Middle ear - Auditory ossicles - Transmit vibrations - Cochlea - Cochlear nerve - Medulla Oblongata - Pons - Mid brain - Thalamus - Primary auditory cortex
Nervous System
-
-
Somatic division
Motor (Efferent)
Mainly to skin, body walls, and skeletal muscles
Sensory (Afferent)
To skin, skeletal muscles, and joints
Automatic division
Motor (Efferent)
Mainly to smooth muscles/cardiac muscles, glands, arrector pili muscles, and smooth muscles of blood vessels
Sensory (Afferent)
Mainly to ventral body cavity content, gustation, and olfaction
Neurons
Major components
Dendrites, Axons, Axon terminals, and Cell body
