the autonomic nervous system is part of
both CNS and PNS
what makes up the brainstem
medulle
pons
midbrain
caudal side of brain

auditory/visual integration
in the SC, white matter…
contains axons
surrounds gray matter
choroid plexus
lines ventricles
tissue source of CSF
volume = 150 ml
production = 500 ml/day
functions of the dorsal (posterior) horns of gray matter in the SC
sensory processing
in the spinal cord, the gray matter…
is surrounded by white matter
contains cell bodies of neurons
spinal nerves are what kind of nerves?
sensory and motor
ventral roots
motor (efferent) neurons
The peripheral nervous system is made up of
cranial and spinal nerves
function frontal lobe
impulse control
language
problem solving
motor control
function of hypothalamus
homeostasis:
temp control
feeding
circadian rhythms
