Nervous system
senses
sensory receptor- structure sensitive to stimulus from surrounding environment, going toward CNS via axons
origin
exteroceptors- stimulus origin is environment, in skin and special senses- sight, hearing, taste, olfaction (smell), equilibrium
-
proprioceptors- self, in muscles tendons ligaments joints, stretch receptors
type
mechanoreceptor- touch, pressure, vibration, stretch
baroreceptor- blood pressure, arteries
-
-
-
chemoreceptor- chemicals- nose, tongue, blood
eye components/pathway
-
tunics-
fibrous layer
sclera- white, DCT, anchor for extrinsic eye muscles, protective, tough, shape
cornea- transparent allowing light in, focus light
vascular layer
Nourishes other layers, pigment absorb light, prevents scattering
choroid- continuous with ciliary body, muscle changes shape of lens
-
segments
anterior segment- ant chamber cornea to iris, posterior chamber- iris to posterior segment, aqueous humor, nourishes lens and cornea, avascular, intraoccqular pressure
posterior segment - lens and ciliary bodies to posterior walls, bubble filled with vitreous humor, transmits light, sports retina and lens, maintain pressure
eye anatomy
-
cones- color, best in light
-
iris- anterior to lens posterior to cornea, color part, intrinsic muscle, controls dilation of pupil
optic disc- where all axons converge and meet, no photoreceptors, blindspot
macula lutea- part of retina, opposite of pupil, clearest vision
-
-
gustation
taste pathway
taste buds
3 cranial nerves- facial, glossopharyngeal, vagus
-
tastebuds/papillae- tongue, soft palate, cheek, epiglottis, upper esophagus
-
ear
outer ear- external canal all the way to the ear drum tympanic membrane, focuses noise coming in
-
-
-
neurons
components
cell body/soma- housing unit for the nucleus and other organelles to organize incoming signal and pass on
nissile bodies/chromatophilic substance- rough endoplasmic reticulum with free ribosomes, the site of protein synthesis
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
action potential- fired from hillock when signal exceeds the threshold, down into the axon
structural type
-
bipolar- 2 neurites extend from soma- dendrite and axon, sensory neuron for senses
multipolar- multiple neurites extend from soma, single axon and many dendrites, mainly in the CNS
-
organization
CNS- brain, brain stem, spinal cord
PNS- peripheral nerves
-
-
autonomic- involuntary responses, fight or flight
sympathetic- fight, excitatory, spinal cord
parasympathetic- rest and digest, feed and breed, inhibitory, brainstem and sacral spinal cord
ENS- enteric, digestive, smooth muscle and glandular tissue
-
anatomy
components
gray matter-cell bodies in brain, cortex- outer layer CNS, inner layer PNS “H”/butterfly in spinal cord
-
white matter- tracts in the brain, white because its myelinated, inside CNS, outside PNS
-
-
-
glial cells
CNS
astrocyte- most abundant, processes contact axons capillaries, supportive, help maintain chemical environment
Microglia- phagocyte, destroys microbes and damaged neural tissues
Ependymal cells- simple cubodial/columnar epithelium, cilia and microvili, located in ventricles (spaces in the brain filled with cerebrospinal fluid), cilia helps circulate CSF
Oligodendrocytes- uses own cell wall to wrap around axon to create sheath, multiple sheaths made from 1 cell, weblike stemming from nucleus center, not myelinated but creates it
PNS
Satellite cells –surrounding neuron cell bodies in ganglia, blanket like, supportive, helps regulate what goes in/out neuron cell bodies
Schwann cells- wraps itself around axon, not myelinated- creates it
