CHAPTER 3 PHYSIOLOGICAL BASES OF BEHAVIOR
Serves as the bridge between the hindbrain and the forebrain. Responsible in linking the sensory and motor pathways between the upper and the lower parts of the nervous system (RELATIVELY SMALL) it serve us intricate SWITCHBOARD of receiving nerve impulses all over the body, after sorting them out, it sends them to higher brain centers
Midbrain
CHAPTER 3 PHYSIOLOGICAL BASES OF BEHAVIOR
Consist of cerebrum, thalamus and hypothalamus
Forebrain
CHAPTER 3 PHYSIOLOGICAL BASES OF BEHAVIOR
Jelly like and extra soft weighing about 1400 grams
Brain
CHAPTER 3 PHYSIOLOGICAL BASES OF BEHAVIOR
The long thin, tubular bundle of nerves and supporting cells that extends down from the brain. It is the central throughway of information for the body. (CENTER OF REFLEX REACTIONS)
Spinal cord
CHAPTER 3 PHYSIOLOGICAL BASES OF BEHAVIOR
States that nerve impulses travel only in one direction from neuron to neuron
Law of dynamic polarity
CHAPTER 3 PHYSIOLOGICAL BASES OF BEHAVIOR
States that it is either that neurons reacts or not at all, but if it does react, it reacts with fullest strength
All or nothing law
CHAPTER 3 PHYSIOLOGICAL BASES OF BEHAVIOR
___ Spaces between the axon of a neuron .
• once the nerve impulse or action potential reaches the tip of the axon, it causes the release of a chemical known as ___
Synapses
Transmitter
CHAPTER 3 PHYSIOLOGICAL BASES OF BEHAVIOR
Sending of a nerve impulses or “firing” of a neuron down the axon from the end of one neuron to the next neuron is called __
Action potential
CHAPTER 3 PHYSIOLOGICAL BASES OF BEHAVIOR
More negative than positive ions or charged particles inside the neuron, while it has more positive ions outside
Resting potential or polarization stage
CHAPTER 3 PHYSIOLOGICAL BASES OF BEHAVIOR
Nerve impulses or messages
Electrical signal
CHAPTER 3 PHYSIOLOGICAL BASES OF BEHAVIOR
Refers to anything that EXCITES AND INITIATE AN ACTIVITY
Stimulus
CHAPTER 3 PHYSIOLOGICAL BASES OF BEHAVIOR
Ability of the neurons to transmit nerve impulses up to the END OF THE NERVE FIBER
Conductivity
