25
The menix of the spinal cord
dura matter, arachnoid and Pia mater
26
dura mater of the spinal cord
formed by dense connective tissue weakly vascularized, unnerved by the meningeal branches of the spinal nerves
27
arachnoid of the spinal cord
is connective tisse, avascular, | between it and Pia mater is the cerebrospinal fluid
28
pia mater
is connective tissue with nutritive vascularization
29
grey matter of the spinal cord
located at the interior, formed of nervous cells and fibers the anterior sulcus contains somatic motor neurons posterior sulcus contains somatic sensitive neurons contains the central part (grey commissure) which has in the interior the ependymal duct
30
the white matter of the spinal cord
at the exterior; formed by myelinated nervous fibers
31
The somatic medullar reflexes are of 2 types
monosynaptic and polysynaptic reflexes
32
the monosynaptic reflexes of the medullar reflex arch is constituted by
2 neurons | they are reflexes of extension (also called myotonic or osteotendinous reflexes)
33
the polysnaptic reflexes of the medullar reflex arch
are also called flexion reflexes or nociceptive reflexes as response to the action of harmful situations at least one intercalary neuron
34
the vegetative medullar reflexes
close in the lateral sulcus of the grey medullar matter receptors are interoceptors the effectors are glands or visceral muscles (pupillary dilator)
35
2 functions of the brainstem
conducting function (white matter) and the reflex function (somatic reflexes)
