Nervous System Flashcards
Control and Communication system in the body
Nervous system
many myelin sheath
can myelinate 3 axons at the same time
Oligodendrocytes
Type of Neurons that we can find in embryo and sensory neuron
unipolar - one process
Type of Neurons that we can find in receptor neuron, retina, olfactory receptors
bipolar - 1 axon 1 dendrite
Type of Neuron that we can find in Nervous System
Multipolar - 1 axon many dendrites
T or F
could it be possible to have double axon?
False, 1 axon lang
it is composed of neurons, nerves, supporting tissues
Nervous System
Main Difference of Oligodendrocytes to Schwann Cells?
Oligodendrocytes- forms myelin sheaths within the CNS
Schwann Cells- forms myelin sheath within the PNS
________ is composed of Nerves to the face, upper limb and lower limb and ganglia.
Peripheral Nervous System
________is composed of brain and spinal cord
Central Nervous System
basic unit of Nervous System
Neurons / Nerve Cells
support cells of neurons
Neuroglia / Glial Cells
it has no axon or dendrites
Neuroglia / Glial Cells
3 types of neurons structure
Unipolar
Bipolar
Multipolar
structural and functional unit of Nervous System
it has the properties of irritability and conductivity
Neurons
consist of cell body, dendrites(process fibers), and axon.
Neurons
Types of Processes of a Neuron
Axon Dendrites Perikaryon (Cell Body) Myelin Sheath Nodes of Ranvier
single elongated cytoplasmic extension
carries impulses AWAY from the cell body
Axon
