Chapter 35 Nervous System • • • • • • • • • 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
