Q

Nervous system

Structure ×2

A

Central Nervous System CNS

Peripheral Nervous System PNS

17
Q

Neurone

Structure

A

Dendron - to cell body
Cell body
Axon - away
Myelin Sheath - Fatty material

18
Q

Myelin sheath usage ×3

A

Insulate nerve fibres
Prevents transmission to surroundings
Speed up transmission

19
Q

Neurone types ×3
Location
Structure

A

Sensory Neurones - PNS
Long Dendron - Short axon

Motor Neurones - CNS
Short Dendron - Long Axon

Interneurones - CNS
Short Dendron - Short Axon

20
Q

Transmission of Nerve Impulse Synapse

A

Impulse arrives
Stimulate Synaptic Knob to release Neurotransmitters from Synaptic Vesicle
Neurotransmitters diffuse across Synaptic Cleft
Stimulate Dendron - Generate nerve impulse

21
Q

Synapse Importance ×2

A

Emsure One Way Transport

Communicates with many neurones

22
Q

Central Nervous System Protection

A

Skull
Vertibral Column
Membrane of brain ×3
Cerebrospinal fluid

23
Q

Cerebrospinal fluid
Location
Importance

A

Between inner and middle membrane
Central canal

Shock absorber
Mechanical support
Provide nutrients

24
Q

Brain parts
Colour
Importance

A

Cerebrum
In White Out Grey Matter
Voluntary action, intelligence

Cerebellum
In White Out Grey
Coordinates Muscle Movement To Maintain Bofmdy Balance when moving

Medulla Oblongata
In Grey Out White
Involuntary action eg Breathing Heart beat
Reflex Centre

25
Why is Cerebrum and Cerebellum highly folded
Surface area | Hold more neurones
26
What is | Grey Matter White Matter
White - Myelin sheath | Grey - Cell body
27
Cerebellum Importance
Coordinates Muscle Movements To Maimtain Balance of Body When moving
28
Brain areas ×3 | Usage
Sensory Area Sensations - receive Motor Area Movements - send merve impulse Associate Area Intergrate info Make decisions
29
Spinal cord Structure Colour Neurones
Central canal in middle Dorsal = back Ventral = fronr In Grey Out White Sensory neurones cell body - Dorsal Root Ganglion Motor Neurones - Grey Matter Interneurones - Grey Matter
30
Spinal Cord Importance ×2
Relays nerve impulse between brain and body parts | Reflex centre for limbs and trunk
31
Reflex Action Characteristics ×4
Inborn Rapid Automatic Stereoptyped
32
Withdrawal reflex process
``` Touch sharp object Pain receptors generate impulse Along sensory neurones Interneurone Motor neurones to effectors Muscle contract Hand withdraw ``` Note: withdraw before feeling pain Another pathway to brain
33
Knee jerk reflex process | Usage
``` Tendon tapped Stretch receptors stimulated Sensory neurones Motor neurones Legs muscles contract -effector ``` Maintain posture Note: no interneurones
34
Voluntary Action Process
``` Receptor stimulated Sensory Neurones Cerebrum interprets integrate Initiate Send nerve impulse along motor neurone Effector ``` Note: can be initiated without stimuli
35
Endocrine Where Examples
Directly to blood Eg. Pituitary glands, Thyroid glands
36
Exocrine How release Examples
Release through ducts Eg. Gastric glands, salivary glands
