Nervous System
BRAIN ANATOMY
Cerebellum
Located under cerebrum, small structure
at the back of brain. Coordinates muscle
movements, posture and balance.
Brainsterm
Continuous with spinal chord. Connects
the cerebrum and cerebellum to spinal
cord. Performs functions like breathing,
heart rate, sleep cycles, digestion.
Cerebrum
Largest part of the brain with a right and
left hemisphere. Performs functions like
interpreting touch, vision and hearing,
speech, memory, learning, emotions, fine
control of movement.

-
System in charge of transmitting millions of
electric impulses that allow adequate
performance of an organism.

CELLS OF THE NS
Function
Receive signals → integrate incoming signals → communicate signals to other neurons, muscles, glands.
Dendrite: receive stimulus from other neurons.
Soma or cell body: main portion of the cell with genetic
material.
Axon: extension that transmits electro-chemical signals to
other neurons.
Myelin sheath: fatty cells wrapped around axon, that work
as insulation or protection.
Axon ending: the electro-chemical signal is converted into
a chemical message that travels to the next neuron.
