Q

Dura Mater

A

-Fused with Periosteum/ up against periosteum of Cranium
-No epidural space above dura Mater(unlike spinal cord)
-Dense Irregular Tissue filled with Collagen
-Splits to form venous sinuses

Q

Question 8

17
Q

Ependymal Cells

A

Form Blood CSF Barrier, acts as a backup for Blood Brain Barrier, Secretes into the ventricles( Water, glucose, alcohol, gases)

18
Q

Arachnoid Vili

A

Allows for CSF to escape back into blood

19
Q

Functions of CSF

A

Fluid Provides Buoyancy for floating of Spinal Cord and Brain to prevent resting on the floor of cranium

Shock Absorber

Chemical Stability- Brings PH back to normal

20
Q

Decussation- M.O

A

Interneuron Axon crosses over to opposing side. MEDULLA OBLONGATA provides this function

21
Q

Pons

A

Acts as BRIDGE from cerebellum to midbrain and stores Respiration centers

22
Q

Medulla Oblongata

A

Site of decussation
Contain collections of Neurosoma that control heart function
Respiratory center

23
Q

[Mid Brain]3 parts

A

Superior Colliculi
Inferior Colliculi

24
Q

Superior Colliculi

A

Provides visual reflexes

25
Inferior Colliculi
Provides Auditory reflex, and location input
26
Pretectal Area
Part of pupillary light reflex
27
Reticular Formation
Reticular Activating System- Habituation
28
Cerebellum
-Divided in R&L by Vermis, -1/10th the size but 60% surface are of cortex, -more than half of all neurons found within brain
29
Cerebellum
-Acts as a comparator for past & present stimuli, (time, pitch, texture) - Provides Motor coordination and learning -Predictor of trajectory, and speed
30
Thalamus
-Gateway to cerebral cortex/ relay station for 5 senses and body regulation - Part of Limbic system( Memory/Emotion)
31
Hypothalamus
Endocrine Gland/Hormone secreter, and autonomic control center- (/Heart rate/blood pressure/thermoregulation) Contain Nuclei for Hunger, fullness/Satiety, and Hydration Contain nuclei that control Circadian Rhythm
32
Epithalamus
Responsible for melatonin secretion-[(Pineal Gland)] Responsible for glucose homeostasis-[(Pancreas)] Contains ([Habenula])- little strap that connects limbic sttem to midbrain
33
Limbic System Anatomy
Slide?
34
Alpha Waves
Awake, eyes closed, non-concentrational
35
Beta Waves
Heavily Concentrated, receiving sensory stimuli
36
Theta Waves
Drowsy/sleepy
37
Delta Waves
Deep sleep
