The Nervous System: Structure, Function, and Drugs

Nervous System Overview

NERVOUS

Nerve current

Electricity: species

  1. Electrons on metal conduit
  2. Ions (charged particles) more cations – Na
  3. Less anion-Cl

Ions

Charged particles

b) Inter neuronal connections (synapses) transmission chemical type

  • Button: axon terminal. Neurotransmitter vesicles: NT
  • Gap: cracks

c) circuit

Convergent -> n1: n3

Divergent -> n2: n3

Classification

1) Anatomy

Brain-m spinal

a) SNC

b) nervous SNP

Substances: gray somas – White: axons

Gray and white substances

Anatomy

SNC

a) central

  • Brain
  • Spinal cord

b) peripheral-node: cell body

  • Nervous – nerve: axons books: n. separate head

f) Pathology

3) other

  • a) Infectious-poleomelitis-meningitis
  • b) epilepsy
  • E-genetics, tumor, head injury
  • M-crisis convulsions, loss of consciousness

Comparison – performance-term – passed

Nervous – quick – short – electric

Endocrine – slow – long – chemical
