What three layers does the eyeball contain?
Fibrous

Vascular


Sensory

internal cavity is filled with fluids
humors
Fibrous Layer
outermost layer



two regions


sclera and cornea

sclera
opaque posterior region



protects and shapes eyeball




anchors extrinsic eye muscles

Cornea
Transparent anterior 1/6 fibrous layer



bends light as it enters the eye




numerous pain receptors contribute to blinking and tearing reflexes


Vascular layer
middle pigmented layer



three regions:


choroid


ciliary body


iris



choroid region
posterior portion of the uvea



supplies blood to all layers of the eyeball




brown pigment absorbs light to prevent visual confusion

Ciliary Body
ring of tissue surrounding the lens



controls lens shape and holds lens in position

Iris
colored part of the eye




Retina
sensory layer



two-layered membrane




Pigmented layer (outer):


absorbs light and prevents its scattering


stores vitamin A




Neural layer (inner)


photoreceptor


cells that transmit and process signals

external ear is composed of?

Auricle:

helix (rim)

lobule (earlobe)




External acoustic meatus:


short, curved tube like with skin bearing hairs




tympanic membrane


eardrum





middle ear
a small, air-filled, muscosa-lined cavity in the temporal bone
what is the epitymanic recess?
superior portion of the middle ear
what is the pharngotmpanic tube?
connects the middle ear to the nasopharynx
what are the three ear bones?
malleus

incus


stapes

What are the three biggest overview of spinal nerves?
1. send info from sensory receptors to spinal cord



2. carry info from spinal cord to effectors




3. spinal nerves are mixed nerves because they contain both sensory and motor axons

Spinal nerve division
31 pairs



8 cervical


12 thoracic


5 lumbar


5 sacral


1 coccygeal

Spinal nerve plexuses
groups of nerves that work together



1. cervical plexus


2. brachial plexus


3. lumbar plexus


4. sacral plexus

cervical plexus
anterior rami - branches of the spinal nerve



phrenic nerve - diaphragm, breathing

Brachial plexus
serves shoulders and upper limbs


Lumbar Plexus
skin and muscles of abdominal wall
sacral plexus
gluts, most of lower limbs
whatis a reflex?
quick, automatic, subconscious, involuntary response to stimuli
What is the functional unit of nervous system?
nerve pathway
What are the reflex arc components?
receptor

sensory neurons


integration center


motor neuron


effector

Stretch Reflexes
Knee jerk reflex
Deep tendon Reflex
Biceps, triceps
Flexor Reflex
hamstring (steping on a nail)
Superficial Reflex
Pantar reflex (stroking foor)
