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