Transcript
BIOL241 Study Objectives Chap. 11- 15 Summer 2012 Specific items to be sure to Study for Final Lecture/Reading/Lab Exam 4 (Nervous System) This exam covers the lectures for Neurophysiology, the CNS: Brain, the Spinal Cord and PNS, Special Senses: (Olfaction)Taste, Touch. Chapters 1 – 15 . Because brain anatomy (structures) is being tested in the laboratory, this exam has a strong emphasis on functions, the senses and more general topics in the Nervous System. Be sure to study: • The events, chemicals, and structures involved in transmission at a neural synapse • The “anatomy” of an action potential graph, and what ions are doing what in the different phases • The different types of nervous system cells and their function • The location of ganglia, the number of neurons, the types of targets, and the neurotransmitters involved in all the synapses of the somatic motor, sympathetic, and parasympathetic divisions • Sensory pathways that ascend the spinal cord to the brain • Motor pathways that descend the spinal cord to the PNS • The specialized cells, location, and function associated with taste buds, olfaction, touch. • The wrappings of a nerve • Nervous system defects arising during pregnancy • Divisions of the CNS and PNS, and what parts serve what functions • Types of reflex arcs • The definitions and differences in location of nuclei vs. ganglia • The parts of the brain at the level of detail discussed in lecture. Know at least one major function for each larger and more specific parts, such as the hypothalamus, pineal gland, and epithalamus of the diencephalon. • Know the function of each of the brain structures on the lab list (page 4) • Know the functions of the cranial nerves. • The difference between the effects of alpha and beta adrenergic neurotransmitters and where adrenergic vs. cholinergic transmitters are found in the nervous system This list is not comprehensive and does not include all the subjects that will appear on the test. It does give you a starting point for your studying. Some items may not be emphasized depending on the quarter. Into. Human Anatomy & Physiology I NSCC Page 1 of 1
