Nervous and Endocrine Systems Review
Synaptic Events
neuron-neuron junction
1.

3.
4.
Action potential arrives at the axon terminal.
Action potential pushes vesicles to the end of the axon.
Vesicles release neurotransmitters into the synapse.
Neurotransmitters bind to receptors on the membrane of the
dendrite of next neuron.
Action potential initiated along dendrite of next neuron.
5.
Neuron
Dendrite, cell body, axon, myelin, synapse, vesicle
Types of Neurons: Sketch each neuron type below and indicate their common functions and locations.
Neuron Type
Physical Description
Location
Main Function
All extensions look the
same
Brain
Good at forming networks over small
distances
Bipolar
One dendrite and one axon
with central cell body
Sensory organs of the head
and face
Carry impulses to the brain for
integration and impulses away from
brain for motor response
Brain
Multipolar
Several dendrites and single
axon with central cell body
Good at forming networks over large
areas.
Single dendrite-axon
extension with cell body
pushed to side
Sensory organs of touch
and pressure in PNS
Carry impulses over great distance
with speed and efficiency
Anaxonic
unipolar
BRAIN STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
Cerebrum processing and integration
Frontal lobe personality, consciousness, decision making
Parietal lobes speech, sensory and motor integration
Temporal lobes hearing and memory storage
Occipital lobe visual cortex
Cerebellum coordination of complex muscle movement
Brain Stem primitive brain; autonomic body processes of life
Thalamus “traffic cop” Sends info to appropriate parts of the brain for processing
Support
Type of Neuroglia
Astrocytes
oligodendrocytes
Schwann cells
Ependymal cells
Microglia
Function
Description
Location
CNS
Provide scaffold to hold neurons in place in the brain; support
Star-shaped extensions that reach out from central nucleus
CNS
Provide insulation for axons to increase speed of transmission of impulse.
Wrapping
PNS
Provide insulation for axons to increase speed of transmission of impulse.
Wrapping
CNS
Lines ventricles of brain to produce CSF
Rich blood supply; highly vascular
CNS
Immune response in the brain; phagocytes to remove debris and dead cells.
Protection
Bones of the cranium
Cranial meninges
Dura mater
Arachnoid mater
Pia mater
CSF
Blood-brain barrier
Nervous System Organization
(Organizational Flow chart from first lesson)
Structural Organization
Functional Organization
Differentiate between exocrine/endocrine glands and describe the products produced and where they are secreted.
Understand/Describe the process of hormone action
Target, Receptors, Activation, Specificity
Protein (amine and peptide) vs Lipid (steroid) Mechanism of Action
Describe how endocrine reflexes are controlled and provide an example
Humoral control
Hormonal control
Neural control
Trophic hormones are released by what gland?
Trophic Hormones function by:
