The nervous system includes two divisions: |
|
Definition
Central nervous system (CNS)
Peripheral nervous system (PNS) |

Cranial nerves III-XII
Spinal nerves

Autonomic (sensory division)
Somatic (motor division) |
|
|
Term
Autonomic division of PNS |
|
Definition
Sensory division
sensing stuff outside the body
Sensory system
Motor system
sympathetic
= figher flight, increases breathing & muscle tone in heart
parasympathetic
= rest, brings it down 2 a norm resting state & also controls digestion
Properioception ~knowing where ur body parts are |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Motor system
Voluntary control
Skeletal muscle movement
Perception of external stimuli
(Conscious of this)
(EX: Seeing something out of the corner of eye & turning head)
Touch
& Has its own motor system

look @ these
PS
Kensey
dont worry about this
I put this in soo I wouldnt forget 2 review it 4 anatomy |

Definition
motor neurons
Conduct CNS - effectors |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Sensory neurons
Conduct impulses receptors - CNS |

Term
Reflex arc
&
important b/c |
|
Definition
Specialized neural pathways
Synapse, takes place in spinal cord
Signal sent simultaneously to brain & ,spinal cord~ while its being sent back from motor neurons
If you burn your hand, signal is sent fast enough that you can pull your hand away (unconsciously- w/o thinking abt it)

Definition
Cell body
houses cellular organelles
Axon
sends impulse away from neuron
Short projections (branches- related 2 what its innvervating)
includes:
Schwann cells (form mylin sheath)
Nodes of Ranvier (space where there is no sheath)
[Functs 2 increase the signal 2 where it needs 2 go, makes it faster, increases conductance by making ions crazy]
Dendrites
Receives/transmits signal
long projections
|
|
|
Term
The stretching and branching (long projections) of the dendrites
PURPOSE IS 2 |
|
Definition
Increase the surface area available for receiving incoming information |

Muscle Structure
& layers
Know that there are 3 layers
There r 3 layers of CT in skeletal muscle:
Epimysium (Outer)
Perimysium (Middle)
Endomysium (Inner)
& the muscle cell/fiber
-fascicle- bundle of muscle fibers/cells
-muscle fibers- indiv unit
-myofibrils- bundles of myofilaments
-myofilaments (contractile proteins)
-actin
-myosin
|
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Largely composed of Proteins
Actin (thin) filaments
Myosin (thick) filaments
Sarcomere
length from Z line to Z line |

REVIEW IT
Kensy-- dont worry about this I put this in 4 anatomy |
|
|
Term
Muscle contraction
sliding filament theory |
|
Definition
Myofilaments (actin, & myosin) overlap to produce a muscle contraction |
|
|
Term
Muscle contraction

Skeletal system
Functions |
|
Definition
Support
point of Attachment 4 muscles
Movement
Protection
Blood cell production
(bone marrow produces immature blood cells)
