Lab 11 Nervous System I Laboratory Objectives Describe the organization of the nervous system. Identify the structure and function of the neuroglia. Identify the differences between glial cells in the central nervous system and in the peripheral nervous system. Identify the structures of a typical neuron Compare the location and function of the neuronal shapes. Describe the mechanisms required to establish a resting membrane potential. Identify the components of a synapse. Compare impulse propagation for action potentials vs graded potentials. State the rules for summation of EPSPs and IPSPs on a neuron which may have thousands of inputs. Name the features of the neuronal membrane that result in the action potential. Compare factors relating to the speed of impulse propagation. Identify signs and symptoms of a patient which suggest a problem with nerve conduction. 1 Activity 1: Structure and Function of the Nervous System Navigation: WileyPlus > Read, Study, & Practice > Lab Exercise 16: Nervous Tissue > See > Animation: Introduction to Structure and Function of the Nervous System > sections: 1.1, 2.1-2.3, 3.1-3.5 1.
