Neurons cell body dendrites axons synapse
Ganglia
Central nervous system (CNS)
Effector cells
Nerves-ropelike bundles extensions with connective tissue
wrap
Peripheral nervous (PNS)
Sensory receptors - Sensory neurons
Interneurons
Motor neurons
myelin sheath
Nerve
axon
Knee-jerk reflex-reflex arc
Supporting cells or glia
a. astrocytes-metabolic and structural support in CNS
b. oligodendrocytes-myelin sheath in CNS
c. Schwann cells-myelin sheath in PNS
d. blood brain barrier-many tight junctions between
endothelium cells in capillaries of the brain induced by
astrocytes
Chemically–gated ion channels- opened by a
neurotransmitter – at the synapsis
Voltage-gated ion channels- opened by a change in
membrane potential – along the axon
