Transcript
The Neuron
Dendrites
Cell body (perikaryon, soma)
Axon
Support cells (neuroglia)
- more abundant than neurons
- more mitotic capability
Axon hillock
Gaps between Schwann cells called nodes of Ranvier
axolemma
Myelinated axons: sheath of Schwann and myelin sheath
one Schwann cell myelinates a single axon
multiple Schwann cells needed to cover entire length of an axon
Oligodendrocytes myelinate CNS axons (if myelinated)
Central Nervous System
1. brain
2. spinal cord
- ganglia associated
3. axons project to and from the body (CNS  PNS)
4. cell bodies in CNS except some in ganglia
Transmission
1. innervation
- cell body as integrator
2. action potentials (impulses)
- axon hillock
3. myelin sheath
Synapses
- presynaptic terminal
- postsynaptic terminal
- neurotransmitters
- ligand-gated ions channels on postsynaptic membrane
Gap junction (nexus)
- is an electrical synapse
Nervous System
Organization of neurons
1. circuits for stimulus-response
2. exchange of information
Neuron signaling
1. afferent vs. efferent
2. interneurons
3. circuits
