Function of Nervous SystemFunction of Nervous System
Sensory Input– Signals received by sensory receptors in dermis of skin
or internal organ systems
Integration– Carried out by Central Nervous System (CNS)
Brain and spinal cord
Motor Output– Carried out by Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)– Signals are sent to muscle or gland cells– Carry out body’s responses to stimuli

Animal Nerve Cells Animal Nerve Cells Nerves: rope-like bundles of extensions of
neurons, tightly wrapped in connective tissue
Neurons: functional unit of the nervous system

Functional Organization of Functional Organization of NeuronsNeurons
Sensory Neurons: relay information (stimuli) from the external and internal environments to CNS
Motor Neurons: convey impulses from CNS to cells in muscles or glands

Neural SignalsNeural Signals
Nerve impulse is an electrical signal that depends on the flow of ions across the plasma membrane of a neuron

Cell is said to be polarized

Action PotentialAction Potential
A nerve impulse is generated when the difference in electrical charge disappears
Occurs when a stimulus contacts the tip of a dendrite and increases the permeability of the cell membrane to Na+ ions
Cell is said to be depolarized

of depolarization has passed, the neuron reestablishes the difference in charges by pumping K+ out of the cytoplasm

SynapsesSynapses
Nerve impulses pass down the dendrite, through the cell body, and down the axon.
At the end of the axon, the signal reaches a fluid-filled space (synapse) separating the end of the axon from the dendrite of the next neuron.
Neuromuscular junction: synapse located at the junction of a neuron and muscle fiber

Neuron CircuitryNeuron Circuitry
Simplest neural circuit involves synapses between 2 neurons, a sensory neuron and a motor neuron
Result is often an automatic response called a reflex

MAJOR NEUROTRANSMITTERS AND THEIR EFFECTS
Acetylcholine (ACh)
Generally excitatory
Affects arousal, attention, memory, motivation, movement. Too much: spasms, tremors. Too little: paralysis, torpor.
Dopamine Inhibitory Inhibits wide range of behavior and emotions, including pleasure. Implicated in schizophrenia and Parkinson's disease.
Serotonin Inhibitory Inhibits virtually all activities. Important for sleep onset, mood, eating behavior.
Norepinephrine Generally excitatory
Affects arousal, wakefulness, learning, memory, mood.
Endorphins Inhibitory Inhibit transmission of pain messages.

BrainstemBrainstem Medulla oblongata
– Contains centers that control autonomic, homeostatic functions
Breathing, heart and blood vessel activity, swallowing, vomiting, and digestion
Pons – Have nuclei in the medulla that regulate breathing centers
Midbrain– Centers for receipt and integration of sensory information
Coordinates large-scale body movements such as walking

CerebellumCerebellum
Primary function is coordination of movement
Receives information about position from joints and length of muscles, as well as auditory and visual systems
Plays role in learning and remembering motor responses (hand-eye coordination)

Cocaine binds to the dopamine transporter and prevents re-uptake of dopamine.
By inhibiting dopamine re-uptake, it increases dopamine and the pleasure sensation
