Functions
Monitors internal and external environments Integrates sensory information Coordinates voluntary and involuntary
responses of other organ systems 2 subdivisions:
CNS – brain and spinal cord Intelligence, memory, emotion
PNS – all other neural tissue sensory, motor
Receptors and Effectors
Receptors – receive sensory info Afferent division – carries info from sensory
receptors to the CNS Efferent division – carries info from CNS to PNS
effectors (muscles, glands, adipose) Somatic Nervous System (SNS)
Controls skeletal muscles (voluntary) Autonomic Nervous System (ANS)
Controls involuntary actions Sympathetic Division (increase heart rate) Parasympathetic Division (decreases heart rate)

Label Neuron
Read the functions to determine the structure of a typical neuron
Neurons
Communicate w/other neurons Soma-Cell body Dendrites - receive info Axon- sends signal to synaptic
terminals (terminal buds) Synapse – site of neural
communication (gap) Myelin – fatty insulation Node of Ranvier – exposed axon
between myelin
3 structural types: Multipolar – multiple dendrites &
single axon (motor neurons) Unipolar – continues dendrites &
axon, cell body lies to side (sensory neurons)
Bipolar – one dendrite and one axon w/cell body between them (special senses)
Types of Neurons
3 functional types Sensory – afferent division
info about surrounding environment position/movement skeletal muscles digestive, resp, cardiovasc, urinary, reprod, taste, and
pain Motor – efferent division (response)
skeletal muscles cardiac and smooth muscle, glands, adipose tissue
Interneurons Brain and spinal cord - memory, planning, and
learning
Neuroglia
Regulate environment around neurons; can be phagocytes; actively divide
Functions in CNS: maintains the blood-brain
barrier create myelin (lipid) to coat
axon Nodes – gaps between
myelinated sections Internodes – areas
covered in myelin Phagocytic cells Secrete cerebrospinal fluid

Membrane Potential
Cells are polarized (measured in volts) Resting potential of neuron -70mV Remains stable due to Na+/K+ Pumps
K+Proteins-
Net - charge
Leak channels – always open (K+ diffuses out)
Na+
Cl-
Gated channels – open/closed under specific circumstance
Changes in Membrane Potential Depolarization
Stimulus opens Na+ gated channels
increase +charge of cell towards 0mV
Action Potentials Affects entire surface of cell
membrane (+) feedback as nerve impulse
continues Hyperpolarization
Stimulus opens K+ gated channels
Increases –charge (from -70mV to -80mV)
Restores resting potential
Action Potential: All or Nothing Principal
Only skeletal muscle fibers and neuron axons have excitable membranes
Graded potential increases pressure until sufficient enough to reach action potential
Resting potential (-70mV) Reaches Threshold (-60mV) Refractory Period – cell cannot
respond to stimulation Depolarization Repolarization
Continuous Propagation chain rxn until reaches cell memb Unmyleinated – 1m/s (2mph)
Salatory Propagation Myelinated (blocks flow of ions
except at nodes) Action potential jumps from node to
node 18-40m/s (30-300mph)
Neural Communication Nerve impulse – info moving in
the form of action potentials along axons
At end of axon the action potential transfers to another neuron or effector cell by release of neurotransmitters from synaptic terminal (only occur in 1 direction)
Activity of neuron depends on balance between: Excitatory
neurotransmitters - depolorization
ACh & Norepinephrine Inhibitory
neurotransmitters -hyperpolarization
Dopamine, Seratonin, GABA

Reflexes
Reflex – involuntary response to stimulus w/o requiring the brain
Reflex arc- sensory neuron Interneuron motor neuron (opposes initial stimulus)
Ex. Knee jerk reflex Babinski reflex (infants only)
Stroke sole of foot toes fan out
Plantar reflex (adults only) Stroke sole of foot toes curl
Signals sent to brain by interneurons allow for control Ex. Toilet training, gag, blink
Testing reflexes activity
