Ventricles
Made by choroid plexus
Openings of middle of brain..
Arachnoid villi
site where CSF
gets RE-absorbed into blood
drains back to systemic
circulation
Blood Brain Barrier
- a selectively permeable barrier
created by astrocyte glia cells
- induces endothelial cells to form tight
junctions (paracrine) less fenestrations
-Brain metabolism

Pia mater
Neuromodulators:
1.Noradrenergic
2.serotonergic
3.dopaminergic

gray matter
OUTSIDE part of cerebral crtx

cluster of neurons in the middle.
white matter
Basal Ganglion

Implicit

Explicit
–(non declarative) – once the skill is learned, you don’t have to think about it anymore, its all automatic (driving). Cerebellum (ALWAYS) involved in movements.


facts and events.
Medial temporal lobe.
Reflexive
Implicit
doesnt require conscious attention
motors skills, procedures
Declarative
Explicit
recall requires conscious attention
higher level thinking - inference, comparison, evaluation,
memories can be reported verbally
Hippocampus
Long term potentiation
Frontal lobe-
Cognition
Premotor
developing what programs you want to use to move, or what you want to modify.
Primary motor cortex
sends info down spine to like the fingers.
Premotor
developing what programs you want to use to move, or what you want to modify.
Frontal lobe-
Cognition
sensory
all sensory input ends up on cortex.
Occipital input –
map neurons, and specific neurons is fired for specific visual stimuli.
The musculoskeletal system
the muscle spindle, golgi organs, those are sensory organelles. They also use them to control muscle movements.
Gray
white
nerve cells,

myelinated axons
