Nervous system
Central - brain and spinal cord
Peripheral - spinal nerves, motor
and sensory nerves
Cranial meninges
Dura mater
Arachnoid
Pia mater
Scalp
Skull
Arachnoid mater
Subarachnoid
space of brain
Brain
1
Neurocoel and ventricles
CNS develops from anterior DHNC,
which has neurocoel
Ventricles
Right lateral ventricle
Left lateral ventricle
Third ventricle
Fourth ventricle
2
Cerebral spinal fluid
provides almost neutral balance
for brain (it “floats”)
cushions and nourishes brain
p.476
Cerebral spinal fluid
CSF produced from blood plasma at choroid
plexus tissue that lines ventricles. It is resorbed
back to blood at venous sinus
Hydrocephalus
3
Gray matter vs. white matter
Cerebrum
Cerebrum is divided into two hemispheres,
and cerebral cortex is outer gray matter
Hemispheres connected via corpus callosum
corpus callosum
Gyri (bumps) and Sulci (grooves) along
surface of cortex define areas of cerebrum
Cerebrum layers
4
Four lobes of cerebrum
Frontal
Parietal
Temporal
Occipital
Somatosensory cortex
Senses conscious body senses including:
pain, hot/cold and proprioception (position)
Motor cortex
Produces muscle movements in body, but
does not plan them
Primary motor
cortex
Somatosensory
cortex
Frontal
lobe
Central
sulcus
Parietal
lobe
5
Thalamus
Thalamus is at the top of the brain stem and
many conscious sensory signals synapse
there before travelling to cerebral cortex
Midbrain
Near the thalamus are the superior and
inferior colliculi that specifically direct visual
and auditory input to cortex
6
Hypothalamus and pituitary
Hypothalamus controls release of
endocrine hormone from pituitary
Pineal
Pineal secretes melatonin at night to
maintain circadian rhythm within body
Pineal is red
Internal ‘clock’ is green
Blue arrows signify melatonin release
Cerebellum and brain stem
Cerebellum maintains balance, muscle tone
and stores ‘muscle memory’ for skilled
activities
Medulla- Controls basic functions:
breathing, heart rate, digestion, etc.
Medulla

Spinal nerves
Spinal nerves
Dermatome
A dermatome is a portion of dermis that is
innervated by the same spinal nerve – they are
metameric
8
Motor
Cranial nerves
Sensory
Mixed
Branchiomeric nerves
Nerves 5, 7, 9, 10 – all are mixed
5 – Trigeminal - Mandibular arch
7 – Facial - Hyoid arch
9 – Glossopharyngeal – Pharynx, tongue
10 – Vagus – Pharynx, tongue, viscera
Tracing the wiring of your ears
Tensor tympani
Inserts on
malleus
Innervated by
trigeminal (5)
Stapedius
Inserts on
stapes
Innervated by
facial (7)
Muscles help dampen ear bone movement to protect
cochlea from loud sounds, diminish ‘head’ sounds
