Coordinates all body systems by !!! electrochemical current The structural and functional unit of the nervous system is a NEURON (nerve cell) Functions of Nervous System Sensory Function • sensory receptors gather information • information is carried to the Central Nervous System (CNS) Integrative Function • sensory information used to create • sensations • memory • thoughts • decisions Motor Function • decisions are acted upon • impulses are carried to effectors through the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) 10-6 Two Major Systems of the Nervous System 1. Central Nervous System (CNS) • brain • spinal cord 2. Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) • peripheral nerves (43 nerves) • cranial nerves (12 pair) • spinal nerves (31 Pair) 10-1 Two Divisions of Nervous System 1. Sensory Division • INPUT INTO CNS (afferent neurons) •picks up sensory information and delivers it to the CNS. 2. Motor Division (made up of two divisions) • OUTPUT FROM CNS to PNS (efferent neurons) •carries information to muscles and glands 10-4 Two Division of the Motor Division 1.Somatic – carries information to skeletal muscle. 2. Autonomic (made up of two divisions) – carries information to smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands Two Divisions of the Autonomic Division 1. PARASYMPATHETIC - Usually promotes those activities associated with a normal state. HOMEOSTASIS!!! 2. SYMPATHETIC - Effects are generally associated with emergency situations FIGHT OR FLIGHT!!! Divisions Nervous System 10-5 Histology of Nervous Tissue • Two principal cell types 1. Neurons—excitable cells that transmit electrical signals 2. Neuroglia (glial cells)—supporting cells: • • • • • • Astrocytes (CNS) Microglia (CNS) Ependymal cells (CNS) Oligodendrocytes (CNS) Satellite cells (PNS) Schwann cells (PNS) Histology of Nervous Tissue 2. Neuroglia (glial cells)—supporting cells: • • • • • • Astrocytes (CNS) Microglia (CNS) Ependymal cells (CNS) Oligodendrocytes (CNS) Satellite cells (PNS) Schwann cells (PNS) Neuron Structure 10-7 Types of Neurons Bipolar • two processes • eyes, ears, nose Unipolar • one process • ganglia Multipolar • many processes • most neurons of CNS 10-9 Classification of Neurons Sensory Neurons • afferent • carry impulse to CNS • most are unipolar • some are bipolar Interneurons • link neurons • multipolar • in CNS Motor Neurons • multipolar • carry impulses away from CNS • carry impulses to effectors 10-10 STOP HERE!!!! Types of Neuroglial Cells Schwann Cells • peripheral nervous system • myelinating cell Oligodendrocytes • CNS • myelinating cell Microglia • CNS • phagocytic cell Astrocytes • CNS • scar tissue • mop up excess ions, etc • induce synapse formation • connect neurons to blood vessels Ependyma • CNS • ciliated • line central canal of spinal cord • line ventricles of brain 10-11 Types of Neuroglial Cells 10-12 Regeneration of A Nerve Axon 10-13 Resting Membrane Potential • inside is negative relative to the outside • polarized membrane • due to distribution of ions • Na+/K+ pump 10-14 Potential Changes • at rest membrane is polarized • threshold stimulus reached • sodium channels open and membrane depolarizes • potassium leaves cytoplasm and membrane repolarizes 10-15 Local Potential Changes • occur on membranes of dendrites and cell bodies • caused by various stimuli • chemicals • temperature changes • mechanical forces • if membrane potential becomes more negative, it has hyperpolarized • if membrane potential becomes more positive, it has depolarized • graded • summation can lead to threshold stimulus that starts an action potential 10-16 Action Potentials • nerve impulse • occur on axons • all-or-none • refractory period • absolute - time when threshold stimulus does not start another action potential • relative – time when stronger threshold stimulus can start another action potential 10-17 Nerve Impulse (NI) • The transmission of an action potential along a neuron. • NI is an electrical impulse. • This is similar to a row of dominos (one falls, they all fall) • NI begins on a dendrite run towards the cell body, through the cell body, and then down the axon Action Potentials 10-18 Impulse Conduction 10-19 Impulse Conduction • The manner in which the NI runs down the neuron. 1. Unmyelinated Neurons – NI must travel the length of the neuron. 2. Myelinate Neurons – Jump from Node of Ranvier to Node of Ranvier. SALTATORY CONDUCTION!!! *VERY FAST TRANSMISSION* Saltatory Conduction 10-20 The Synapse Nerve impulses pass from neuron to neuron at: Synapses – the junction between two neurons where a nerve impulse is transmitted 10-21 Synaptic Cleft • Occurs between the axon of one neuron and the dendrite of a second neuron. NOTE!!! The two neurons DO NOT TOUCH!!! This is called the synaptic cleft 10-22 Synaptic Potentials EPSP • excitatory postsynaptic potential • graded • depolarizes membrane of postsynaptic neuron • action potential of postsynaptic neuron becomes more likely IPSP • inhibitory postsynaptic potential • graded • hyperpolarizes membrane of postsynaptic neuron • action potential of postsynaptic neuron becomes less likely 10-23 Summation of EPSPs and IPSPs • EPSPs and IPSPs are added together in a process called summation • More EPSPs lead to greater probability of action potential 10-24 Neurotransmitters 10-25 Impulse Processing Neuronal Pools • groups of interneurons that make synaptic connections with each other • interneurons work together to perform a common function • each pool receives input from other neurons • each pool generates output to other neurons 10-26 Convergence • neuron receives input from several neurons • incoming impulses represent information from different types of sensory receptors • allows nervous system to collect, process, and respond to information • makes it possible for a neuron to sum impulses from different sources 10-27 Divergence • one neuron sends impulses to several neurons • can amplify an impulse • impulse from a single neuron in CNS may be amplified to activate enough motor units needed for muscle contraction 10-28 Clinical Application Multiple Sclerosis Symptoms • blurred vision • numb legs or arms • can lead to paralysis Treatments • no cure • bone marrow transplant • interferon (anti-viral drug) • hormones Causes • myelin destroyed in various parts of CNS • hard scars (scleroses) form • nerve impulses blocked • muscles do not receive innervation • may be related to a virus 10-29
