● The central nervous system is comprised of the brain and spinal cord.

● The peripheral nervous system includes all peripheral nerves.

system. ● The central

nervous system consists of the brain and

spinal cord.

Nerves

●Nerves → Collections of neurons that are joined together by connective tissue.

Santiago Ramón y Cajal (Petilla de Aragón,1 May 1852 – Madrid 18 October 1934)

Spanish pathologist, histologist, neuroscientist, and Nobel laureate in 1906

Education at: Universidad de Zaragoza (1873

Page 21: Neuron & Nervous System

Function:

● Send impulses to and from the Central Nervous System and Peripheral Nervous System and the effectors (muscles/glands)

Page 22: Neuron & Nervous System
Page 23: Neuron & Nervous System

● Dendrite → Fine hair-like extensions on the end of a neuron.● Function: receive incoming stimuli.

● Cell Body or Soma → The control center of the neuron. ● Function: Directs impulses from the dendrites to the axon.

● Nucleus → Control center of the Soma. ● Function: Tells the soma what to do.

● Axon→ Pathway for the nerve impulse (electrical message) from the soma to the opposite end of the neuron.

● Myelin Sheath → An insulating layer around an axon, It is made up of Schwann cells.

● Nodes of Ranvier → Gaps between schwann cells. ● Function: Saltatory Conduction (Situation where speed of an

impulse is greatly increased by the message

‘jumping’ the gaps in an axon).

A neurone consists of a cell body (A) containing a nucleus surrounded by cytoplasm (B). Branching filaments, called dendrites (C), extend from the cell surface and make synapses (D) with other neurones. In sensory (E) and motor (F) neurones, one of the filaments is very long and is called a nerve fibre (G).

Transmission of signals

Page 31: Neuron & Nervous System

The Synapse

●The junction between two neurons is called a ________________, it forms a physical ______ between the pre-synaptic and post-synaptic neurons

●An action potential (__________signal) cannot cross the synaptic gap, so it triggers the release of chemicals (______________) to continue the signal

Page 32: Neuron & Nervous System

The Synapse

●The junction between two neurons is called a Synapse it forms a physical Gap between the pre-synaptic and post-synaptic neurons

●An action potential (Electrical signal) cannot cross the synaptic gap, so it triggers the release of chemicals (Neurotransmitters) to continue the signal

Page 33: Neuron & Nervous System

Neurotransmitters

Neurotransmitters are endogenous chemicals that transmit signals from a neuron to another cell across a synapse.
