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 |

|
OUTSIDE part of cerebral crtx
cluster of neurons in the middle. |
|
white matter
|
Basal Ganglion
cluster of neurons between the cerebral crtx and the thalamus. responsible for motion. |

2 forms of Long term memory
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 |

|
|
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 |
