Physiology
-
Neuron Structures
-
Axon
Nerve impulses are generated in the axon and transmitted away from the cell body towards the synapse
-
-
-
Cerebrum
-
Lobes
Occipital
visuospatial processing, distance and depth perception, color determination, object and face recognition, and memory formation
Temporal
vision, memory, sensory input, language, emotion, and comprehension
Parietal
processing sensory information regarding the location of parts of the body as well as interpreting visual information and processing language and mathematics
Insula
basic survival needs, such as taste, visceral sensation, and autonomic control
Frontal
emotional expression, problem solving, memory, language, judgment, and sexual behaviors
-
Process of Movement
Basal Nuclei
control of voluntary motor movements, procedural learning, habit learning, eye movements, cognition, and emotion
-
-
-
Cerebellum
posture, balance, coordination, and speech, resulting in smooth and balanced muscular activity
Spinal Cord
Ventral Root Ganglion
contains axons of motor neurons that conduct nerve impulses from the CNS to other parts of the body such as the muscles
-
Dorsal Root
transmits sensory information, forming the afferent sensory root of a spinal nerve
-
Ventral Root
contains outgoing, efferent fibers that carry information destined to control motor or glandular function
-
Lateral Gray Horn
receives input from brain stem, organs, and hypothalamus
-
Ventral Gray Horn
carry both ascending information about pain and temperature, and descending motor information
-
Dorsal Gray Horn
receives several types of sensory information from the body, including fine touch, proprioception, and vibration
Three Meninges
Arachnoid Mater
middle layer includes a network of fibers and collagen that are part of the suspension system that helps protect the brain and spinal cord from sudden impact
