WHAT CELLS MAKE UP OUR NERVOUS SYSTEM? Chapter 2 – Part I QUIZZES (20% OF FINAL GRADE) ▪ Quiz 1 opens today, closes 9/8. Covers today’s material only ▪ Highest 8 quiz scores will count towards your final grade controls our internal organs 8 WHAT IS THE NERVOUS SYSTEM? PVS-CNS - Brain ▪ Complex & highly organized body system: Receives information from the world around us PNS ↓ Transmits the information through the spinal CNS cord/brain extreme amount of of organization the nervous system ↓ Processes the information in the brain generates motor command ↓ Directs our body’s reaction to the world back out to PNS & Controls our internal functions HOW DOES THE NERVOUS SYSTEM CONTROL BEHAVIOR? takes external world in fo ↑ to brain. Neurons process signol Neuron 1 ▪ 2 types of cells – neurons & glia send it back out and Synapses → Neurons transmit information → Glia act as supporting cells ↳ Support neuron al metabolism protect help , ▪ Neurons communicate with each maintains activity Neuron 2 other through L synapses Specialized structure where mode projections are very close not but exectly touching ▪ Neurons are organized in a precise order to form a circuit - how information travel through multiple neurons All behavior arises from neurons – even if they are few in number True of humans + animals not everything has neurons SIMPLE TO COMPLICATED NERVOUS SYSTEMS ROUNDWORM (C.
