NCSU Bio 240 Klesath Module 1.2
Central Nervous System (CNS) - ANS-brain and spinal cord

Brain - ANS-- Site of thoughts and intelligence
- Processes information received and sends messages back to the body

Spinal Cord - ANS-- Carries information between the brain and the body
- Musculoskeletal reflex center (i.e. knee jerk)

Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) - ANS-Nerves:
- Bundled axons carry signals to and from CNS
- Extend from the brain or spinal cord
Ganglia:
- Cluster of neuron cell bodies outside of the CNS

Nerve - ANS-An organized collective bundle of axons that send signals thought the PNS

Ganglion - ANS-A localized cluster of neuron cell bodies, and associated glial cells,
found along the length of the nerves in the PNS

Epineurium - ANS-Connective Tissue surrounding the outer nerve surface

Perineurium - ANS-Connective Tissue the surrounds and separates bundles of axons
organized into fascicles

Endoneurium - ANS-Connective Tissue that surrounds and Socrates individual axons
within fascicles

Somatic Sensory - ANS-sensory input that is consciously perceived from receptors

Visceral Sensory - ANS-sensory input that is not consciously perceived from receptors
of blood vessels and internal organs

Somatic Motor - ANS-motor output that is consciously or voluntarily controlled; effector
is skeletal muscle

Autonomic Motor - ANS-motor output that is not consciously or is involuntarily
controlled; effectors are cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, and glands

, Multipolar Neuron - ANS-A neuron with a single axon and multiple dendrites; the most
common type of neuron in the nervous system.

Bipolar Neuron - ANS-a neuron with one axon and one dendrite attached to its soma,
found in limited locations

Unipolar Neuron - ANS-a neuron with one process extending from its cell body and
forms a T intersection

Anaxonic Neuron - ANS-many dendrites but no axon, help in visual processes

Sensory Neurons - ANS-neurons that receive information from the external world and
convey this information to the brain via the spinal cord

Interneuron - ANS-Receives signs form sensory neurons and sends signals to motor
neurons

Motor Neuron - ANS-a neuron that sends an impulse to a muscle or gland, causing the
muscle or gland to react

Presynaptic Neuron - ANS-neuron that sends the signal

Postsynaptic Neuron - ANS-neuron that receives the signal and binds to receptors and
causes either depolarization or hyper polarization

Anterograde Transport - ANS-Moves newly synthesized material toward synaptic knobs

Retrograde Transport - ANS-Moves used materials form axon for breakdown and
recycling in cell body.

Neuron - ANS-Excitable Cells

Glial Cells - ANS-non-excitable cells that support and protect the neurons

Astrocyte Function (CNS) - ANS--forms barrier around brain capillaries that control what
substances enter brains nervous tissue from blood

-regulate interstitial fluid composition (chemical environment around neurons)
