Synapse • In the pre-synaptic neuron, an
electrical signal comes in, opens up
to voltage-gated channels, and
signals the vesicles containing
neurotransmitters (chemical signal) to
be released into the synaptic cleft.
• Receptors on the post-synaptic
neuron bind to the neurotransmitter
signaling it to open its gate and let
ions flow through.
• The flow of ions will generate a
current that changes the resting
membrane potential. If the membrane
potential passes the threshold, then
an action potential is produced.
• The action potential is then
propagated to the next neuron, and
the communication continues from
neuron to neuron.

An Introduction to the Brain and Cranial Nerves
• The Adult Human Brain
• Ranges from 750 cc to 2100 cc
• Contains almost 97% of the body’s neural tissue
• Average weight about 1.4 kg (3 lb)
![Page 4: AR - Houston Community College](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012016/615b17b1630e290a0544539a/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

Brain Summary • Important component of the CNS.
• Site for coordination and integration of sensations, emotions,
memory, and behavior.
• Divided into 6 regions (cerebrum, cerebellum, diencephalon,
mesencephalon, pons, and medulla oblongata)
• Protected by 3 connective tissue meninges: dura mater,
arachnoid, and the pia mater—just like the spinal cord.
• Large blood vessels called dural sinuses can be found
between 2 layers of dura mater.
• The subarachnoid space is filled with CSF
• Cranial nerves emerge from various parts of the brain
• The brain contains both gray matter and white matter
• Gray = interneurons and neuroglia
• White = fiber tracts

14-9 The Cerebrum
• The Cerebrum Summary
• Forms the bulk of the brain, is folded superficially to form
ridges (gyri) and grooves (sulci).
• A longitudinal fissure divides the cerebrum into 2 cerebral
hemispheres. Each hemisphere is further subdivided into
5 lobes: frontal, parietal, temporal, insula, and occipital.

14-9 The Cerebrum
• The Cerebrum Summary
• The cerebrum receives sensory information from both internal and
external stimuli. Within the cerebral gray matter, this information is
evaluated in conjunction with memory and is used to coordinate motor
output .
• The fiber tracts (white matter) of the brain serve to receive or send
information to the rest of the body (projection tracts), cross from one
cerebral hemisphere to the other (commissural tracts such as the corpus
collosum), or connect different regions within one hemisphere
(association tracts).
• Deep pockets of gray matter called the basal nuclei are involved in motor
control.
![Page 54: AR - Houston Community College](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012016/615b17b1630e290a0544539a/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)

14-9 The Cerebrum
• Three Functional Principles of the Cerebrum
1. Each cerebral hemisphere receives sensory
information from, and sends motor commands to,
the opposite side of the body
2. The two hemispheres have different functions,
although their structures are alike
3. Correspondence between a specific function and a
specific region of cerebral cortex is not precise
![Page 55: AR - Houston Community College](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012016/615b17b1630e290a0544539a/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)

14-9 The Cerebrum
• Hemispheric Lateralization
• Functional differences between left and right
hemispheres
• Each cerebral hemisphere performs certain functions
that are not ordinarily performed by the opposite
hemisphere
![Page 59: AR - Houston Community College](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012016/615b17b1630e290a0544539a/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)

14-9 The Cerebrum
• The Left Hemisphere
• In most people, left brain (dominant hemisphere) controls:
• Reading, writing, and math
• Decision making
• Speech and language
• The Right Hemisphere
• Right cerebral hemisphere relates to:
• Senses (touch, smell, sight, taste, feel)
• Recognition (faces, voice inflections)
![Page 60: AR - Houston Community College](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012016/615b17b1630e290a0544539a/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)

14-10 Cranial Nerves
• Cranial Nerves
• 12 pairs connected to brain
• Four Classifications of Cranial Nerves
1. Sensory nerves carry somatic sensory information, including
touch, pressure, vibration, temperature, and pain
2. Special sensory nerves carry sensations such as smell, sight,
hearing, balance
3. Motor nerves: axons of somatic motor neurons
4. Mixed nerves: mixture of motor and sensory fibers
![Page 63: AR - Houston Community College](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012016/615b17b1630e290a0544539a/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)

14-10 Cranial Nerves
• Cranial Nerves
• Are classified by primary functions
• May also have important secondary functions
• Distributing autonomic fibers to peripheral ganglia
• The 12 cranial nerve groups are identified by:
• Primary function
• Origin
• Pathway
• Destination
