32
Q

what does the somatic (spinal nerves) control?

A

controls conscious and subconscious control over SKELETAL muscles, skin, and joints

33
Q

what does the autonomic control?

A
  • control over viscera (body organs, smooth muscles, blood vessels, glands)
  • control pressure of oxygen in the blood (heart rate, blood vessel diameter)
34
Q

what does the spinal cord communicate through?

A

communicates to the body through spinal nerves (PNS)

35
Q

What does the dorsal root carry?

A

carries sensory (afferent) informations from the body to the spinal cord

36
Q

what does the ventral root carry?

A

carries motor (efferent) information from the spinal cord to the muscles

37
Q

What happens if you cut a spinal nerve?

A

leads to a loss of sensation and a loss of movement in the affected region of the body

38
Q

the sympathetic nervous system does what?

A
  • fight or flight
  • increases heart rate and blood pressure
  • relaxes airways
  • stimulates glucose production
  • inhibits salivation, digestion
39
Q

the parasympathetic nervous system does what?

A

-slows heart rate
- stimulates digestion
- constricts airways
- stimulates salivation

40
Q

what is ipsilateral?

A

same side of the body

41
Q

what is contralateral?

A

the opposite side of the body

42
Q

temporal lobe is what?

A

primary auditory cortex, learning and memory

43
Q

frontal lobe is what?

A

primary motor cortex, complex cognitive process: language, attention, memory and strategizing

44
Q

parietal lobe is what?

A

primary somatic sensory areas, visual processing

45
Q

the occipital lobe is what?

A

primary visual cortex, other visual areas

46
Q

insular lobe is what?

A

gustatory cortex (sense of taste)
