PowerPoint Presentation to Accompany © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 1 Chapter 11 The Nervous System The Brain, Cranial Nerves, Autonomic Nervous System and the Special Senses © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 2 Introduction • Brain is divided into four main parts – Brainstem: controls breathing, heartbeat rates and reactions to auditory and visual stimuli – Diencephalon: controls homeostasis – Cerebrum: controls intellectual processes and emotions – Cerebellum: maintains body posture and balance © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 3 The Principal Parts of the Brain © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 4 The Principal Parts of the Brain (cont’d.) • Main parts: brainstem, diencephalon, cerebrum and cerebellum • Protection – Cranial bones – Meninges – Cerebrospinal fluid • Ventricles – Interventricular foramen © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 5 The Principal Parts of the Brain (cont’d.) © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 6 The Anatomy and Functions of the Brainstem © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 7 The Anatomy and Functions of the Brainstem (cont’d.) • Medulla oblongata – Ascending and descending tracts – Connect spinal cord with the brain – Some tracts cross over in medulla – Reticular formation: controls consciousness – Reflex centers © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 8 The Anatomy and Functions of the Brainstem (cont’d.) • Pons varolii – Connects spinal cord with brain – Connects parts of brain with each other – Helps control breathing © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 9 The Anatomy and Functions of the Brainstem (cont’d.) • Midbrain – Ventral cerebral peduncles: convey impulses from cortex to pons and spinal cord – Dorsal tectum: reflex center – Controls movement of head and eyeball (visual stimuli) – Controls movement of head and trunk (auditory stimuli) © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 10 The Anatomy and Functions of the Diencephalon © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 11 The Anatomy and Functions of the Diencephalon (cont’d.) • Optic tracts • Mamillary bodies: memory and emotional responses • Thalamus – Relay station for sensory impulses – Interpretation center for pain, temperature and touch • Epithalamus: contains pineal gland © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 12 The Anatomy and Functions of the Diencephalon (cont’d.) • Hypothalamus: homeostasis – Controls and integrates autonomic nervous system – Receives sensory impulses from internal organs – Controls pituitary gland and links endocrine and nervous systems © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 13 The Cerebrum: Structure and Function © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 14 The Cerebrum: Structure and Function (cont’d.) © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 15 The Cerebrum: Structure and Function (cont’d.) • Cerebral cortex: gray matter surface • Longitudinal fissure separates two hemispheres • Gyri: folds • Sulci: grooves • Corpus callosum: bridge connecting two hemispheres © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 16 The Cerebrum: Structure and Function (cont’d.) • Surface of the cortex – Motor areas control muscular movements – Sensory areas interpret sensory impulses – Association areas process emotions and intellect © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 17 The Cerebrum: Structure and Function (cont’d.) • Cerebral hemispheres – Frontal lobe: muscle movement, moods, aggression, smell, motivation – Parietal lobe: touch, pain, balance, taste, temperature – Temporal lobe: hearing, smell, memory, abstract thought, judgment – Occipital lobe: vision © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 18 The Cerebellum: Structure and Function © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 19 The Cerebellum: Structure and Function (cont’d.) • Butterfly-shaped • Two partially separated hemispheres connected by vermis • Functions – Coordinating muscular movements – Maintaining posture – Maintaining balance © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 20 The Autonomic Nervous System © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 21 The Autonomic Nervous System (cont’d.) • • • • • Subdivision of efferent PNS Functions without conscious effort Regulates functions of internal organs Assists in maintaining homeostasis Helps deal with emergency situations © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 22 The Autonomic Nervous System (cont’d.) • Sympathetic – Energy and stressful situations – Increases heartbeat and breathing rates – Neurotransmitters: acetylcholine and norepinephrine © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 23 The Autonomic Nervous System (cont’d.) • Parasympathetic – Restores body to nonstressful state – Neurotransmitter: acetylcholine – Stimulates digestion, urination and defecation © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 24 The 12 Cranial Nerves and Their Functions © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 25 The 12 Cranial Nerves and Their Functions (cont’d.) • (I) Olfactory: smell • (II) Optic: sight • (III) Oculomotor: movement of eyeball, constriction of pupil • (IV) Trochlear: movement of eyeball © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 26 The 12 Cranial Nerves and Their Functions (cont’d.) • (V) Trigeminal: chewing, sensations in teeth • (VI) Abducens: movement of eyeball • (VII) Facial: facial expression, taste, tear and salivary glands • (VIII) Vestibulocochlear: equilibrium, hearing © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 27 The 12 Cranial Nerves and Their Functions (cont’d.) • (IX) Glossopharyngeal: swallowing, taste, salivary glands • (X) Vagus: certain muscle movements, sensory impulses • (XI) Accessory: swallowing, head movement • (XII) Hypoglossal: swallowing, speech © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 28 The Special Senses © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 29 The Sense of Smell • Molecules in air dissolve in nasal mucus • Bipolar sensory neurons transfer chemical impulse • Olfactory bulbs receive impulse • Impulse sent to olfactory cortex • Odor variety dependent on brain interpretation © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 30 The Sense of Taste • Taste buds on tongue, palate and pharynx • Taste bud cell types – Exterior capsule: epithelial cells – Interior: taste cells • Taste depends on chemicals dissolved in saliva • Taste influenced by olfactory sensations © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 31 The Sense of Sight • Eyes protected by eyelids and eyelashes • Tears – Lubricate the eyes – Contain bacteriolytic lysozyme enzyme – Contain salt and gamma globulin © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 32 The Sense of Sight (cont’d.) © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 33 Animation - Vision • [Insert Vision_SWF folder] © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 34 The Sense of Hearing and Equilibrium • Outer ear – Auricle: external, visible, flexible part – External auditory meatus • Lined with hair and ceruminous glands – Tympanic membrane: vibrates in response to sound © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 35 The Sense of Hearing and Equilibrium (cont’d.) • Middle ear – Auditory ossicles: malleus, incus and stapes – Openings: oval and round windows – Eustachian tube: equalizes pressure © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 36 The Sense of Hearing and Equilibrium (cont’d.) • Inner ear – Cochlea: hearing – Equilibrium • Static: vestibule • Kinetic: semicircular canals © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 37 The Sense of Hearing and Equilibrium (cont’d.) • Structures of the ear shown in cross section © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 38
