Two major anatomical divisions are:
começar a aprender
the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS).
CNS consists of
começar a aprender
the brain and the spinal cord.
PNS consists of
começar a aprender
nerves that carry sensory messages to the CNS and motor commands from the CNS to the muscles and glands.
Two types of cells are:
começar a aprender
neurons and neuroglia.
Neurons funtions are to:
começar a aprender
transmit nerve impulses between parts of the nervous system.
Neuroglia functions are to:
começar a aprender
support and nourish neurons, maintain homeostasis, form myelin and may aid in signal transmission.
Neurons consist of:
começar a aprender
a cell body, dendrites and an axon.
The cell body contains
começar a aprender
the nucleus and other organelle.
Dendrites are
começar a aprender
extensions leading toward the cell body that receive signals from other neurons.
An axon function is to:
começar a aprender
conducts nerve impulses away from the cell body toward other neurons or effectors.
Different sorts of neurons are:
começar a aprender
sensory neurons, interneurons and motor neurons.
A sensory neuron function is to:
começar a aprender
take messages to the CNS.
A sensory neuron may be equipped with:
começar a aprender
endings called sensory receptors that detect changes in the environment.
An interneuron lies
começar a aprender
within the CNS.
An interneuron function is to:
começar a aprender
receive input from sensory neurons and from other interneurons. Sum up all the messages received from sensory neurons before communicate with motor neurons.
A motor neuron function is to:
começar a aprender
take messages away from the CNS to an effector.
