Nervous System
Senses
-
-
The eye
Eye components
Fibrous layer
- Sclera: white, dense connective tissue
- Cornea: clear- allows light into the eye
Vascular layer
- Choroid: nourishes the other layers
Inner layer
- Retina: photoreceptor- axons
converge to form optic nerve
-
Olfaction
Component
Olfactory epithlium
- Roof of the nasal cavity
- Pseudostratified columnar epithelium
-
Gustation
Components
Taste buds
- Tongue, inner checks, posterior wall of pharynx, and epiglottis
- Epithelial cells
-
3 cranial nerves
- Facial nerve (VII)
- Glossopharyngeal nerve (IX)
- Vagus nerve (X)
The ear
Components
Outer layer
- Auricle (pinna): gather sound waves
- External acoustic meatus: running medially
from the auricle to ear drum
Middle layer
- Tympanic membrane (ear drum)
- Auditory ossicles: malleus, incus, and stapes
Inner layer (labyrinth)
- Semicircular canal
- Vestibule
- Cochlea

Anatomy of
nervous system
Nerve components
-
-
-
Perineurium
- Around the bundle of axons
-
Epineurium
- Outer most layer
- Surrounding multiple nerve
fascicles and blood vessels
Glial cells
Central nervous system
Astrocytes
- Most numerous
- Many processes that contact neurons
and capillaries (smallest blood vessels)
Microglia (phagocytes)
- Remove microbes and
damaged nerve tissue
Oligodendrocytes
- Wrap their plasma membranes
around one portion of several axon
Ependymal cells
- Simple cuboidal/columnar epithelium
with cilia that keep CSF moving
- Lining spaces filled with cerebrospinal
fluid called ventricles
-
