Q

autonomic nervous system

A
sensory neurouns (relay info from autonomic sensory receptors; found in visceral organs)

Q

axons

A

single fiber extension from neuron of cell body to transmit inpulese away.
may be encased in lipid covering - myeline sheath

16
Q

myelin sheath in CNS

A

produced by oligodendrocytes (type of neuroligical cell)

17
Q

oligodendrocytes

A

resposible for adding layers of myelin sheath around multiple axons at the same time.
DO NOT have neurolema (unable to naturally generate)

18
Q

types pf neurons

A

sensory (afferent)
interneurons (association)
motor (efferent)

19
Q

sensory (afferent) neurons

A

recieve info from sensory receptors
carry it from PNS toward CNS via cranial or spinal nerves
specialized nerve endings which respond to environmental stimuli

20
Q

interneurons (association) neurons

A

located in brain or spinal cord & form links between other neurons

1) sensory -> motor = reflex
2) carry impulse from sensory up spinal cord to brain
3) in thought patterens from one interneuron to another
4) carry impulse down spinal cord to motor neuron

21
Q

motor (efferent) neuron

A

carry info from CNS to effectors in PNS via cranial or spinal nerves
when stimulated by motor impulses, effectors will cause response.
muscle will contract - glands will secrete

22
Q

SAME

A
Sensory = Afferent
Motor     = Efferent
23
Q

neurological cells CNS

A

structural support for neurons
insulating layers on myelin
phagocytize bacterial cells & cell debris
form cerebrospinal fluid
form innner linings that enclose spaces within the brain

24
Q

synaptic transmission

A

junction between two neurons - synapse

gap between two neurons - synaptic cleft

25
process of nerve impulse
travels from axion of presynaptic neuron to dendrites or cell body of postsynaptic neuron. synaptic knobs conatins synaptic vessicles which are stimulated to release nerotransmitter into synaptic cleft for another impulse to be transmitted, nurotransmitter that was released needs to be removed
26
neurotransmitter can be removed by
diffusing in synaptic cleft decomposing enzymes in synaptic cleft removes it reuptake(return) of neurotrasmitter to the presynaptic neuron
27
nerves
many nerve fibers in a bundle in CNS bundles of nereve fibers are TRACTS SENSORY NEREVE- only afferent neurons MOTOR NEREVE- only efferent neurons most nreves contain BOTH and are called mixed
28
nerve pathways
once change is detected, electrical impulse is generated | impulse goes to brain for interpretation and contiunues to effectors so response can be generated
29
types of stiumuli
``` mechanical -pin prick chemical- tasting thermal- change in temp stretch- change in BP sound- turning head toward noise ```
30
complete afferent pathway
extends from receptor to brain carries nerve impulses to spinal cord interneuron carries impulse up spinal cord to brain
31
complete efferent pathway
from brain to effector interneuron from brain to appropriate level of spinal cord then an efferent neuron from the cord to the effector
32
pathway from receptor ro effector
SENSORY (afferent) - cell body outside MOTOR (efferent) - cell body inside INTERNEURONS - entore neron inside
33
5 componesnt of reflex
``` receptor sensory neuron interneuron motor neuron effector ```
34
withdrawl reflex
3 neurons involved
