what are the 3 components of the diencephalon?
thalamus
hypothalamus
pineal gland
what is the location and function of the thalamus
surrounds 3rd ventricle and it attaches an emotion to a stimuli
1. location of the hypothalmus?
2. Function?
1.Below thalamus
2.Regulates homeostasis
1. location of pineal gland?
2.Function
posterior portion of diencephalon
2. produces melatonin and regulates sleep cycle
4 functions of the lymbic system?
Memory, Motivitaion, olfactory, emotions
Function of the amygdala
its the rage center
function of the hippocampus
learning and memory
function of the fornix
carries signals to from the hippocampus to the hypothalamus
damage of the limbic systems can cause?
memory loss, loss of smell, inhability to recognize fear and face expression
frontal lobe function
descion making and motor commands
parietal lobe function?
sensory analysis
occipital lobe function
analyzes vissual imput
/temporal lobe function
analyze auditory input
an outward fold of tissue
gyri
shallow grove
sulcli
a large indentation in the brain
longitudinal fissure
impulses travel between gyri in the same hemisphere
association fibers
transmit impules from gyri in one hemisphere to other
commisural fibers
ascending and descending fibers that relay info to the cerebrum and other structures
projection fibers
what is the basal nuclei and its function
group of several nuclei within the cerebrum and its function is to reciebve sensory and motor infro from the cerebum
how many neurons are involeved in the sesnory pathway?
3
where is the the sensory humuclus and why are some sections bigger then others?
mapped out in the brain and they have more nerves then others
what are 4 factors that contribute to the interpretation of the sensory stimulus
#of neurons, neurons relay certain info, frequency
what is the significance of the association areas?
they have circuits going to other lobes and strucutures
how many neurons in the motor pathway? where does it start?
2 (brain to down)
AReas that contribute to the formation of motor commands
Basal nuclei (muscletone)
*cerebrum* (corrective movemnet)
premotor area (sequencial movement)
Broccas (speech)
what are the 3 integrative centers
wernickes area
prefrontal cortex
broccas area
right hemisphere does hat?
controls left side of the body,
visual info, artistic, Creativity
left hemisphere does what?
controls right side of body, sppech/language, logical thinking, decision making
Somatic nervous system releases
ACh
Autonomic nervous system neurons releases
Ach or NE
in a SNS the neurons exit through where? ganglia are where? preganglionic neurons are? and post ganglioninc neurons are
thoracolumbar region, spinal cord, cholenergic, adrenergic or cholenenrgic,
in the pns the preganglionic neurons exit through the? the ganglia are located where? and the pre and postganglionic neurons are?
craniosacral region. effector organ, cholenergic
2 types of cholinergic receptors, what do they bind to?
nicotinic and muscarcinc , ACh
how are nicotonic and muscarininc receptros diffrent
N can be found on PG dendrites and cell bodies, while M can be found at effector. N = depolarized M = hyperpolarized or depolarized
What are found on most effectors stimulated by postganglionic neurons of the sns?
adrenergic receptors
What does adrenergic receptors bind to and how is it removed?
NE E and enzymes and reuptake
first order neurons in the olfactory path serve what function?
form olfactory nerve
where is the 2nd order neurons in the olfact path
olfactory tract
what cranial nerves transmit guastory impulses,
7 9 10
avascualar trasnparent coat that is curved to focus light on lense
cornea
transparent structure that helps to focus image on the retina
lens
covers eyeball, opaque ct, white of the eye
sclera
colored portion of the eye, muscle that extends between cornea and lens,
iris
contract when stim by pns causing pupil to constrict
cicrular muscles
contract when stim by sns causeing pupil to dialate
radial muscle
muscle that attaches to lense via zone fibers and controls cervature of lense
ciliary body
fluid filled cavaity positioned between cornea and iris
anterior chmaber
fluid filled cavaity behinf lens
vitreaous chamber
vascualr portion that lines sclera
choriod
location where axons exit eye, blind spot
optic disc
mucus memebrane that lines the outside of the eye and also inner surface of eye lid
conjunctiva
what is responsible for most refraction?
cornea
lipid souluble hormones? describe its mechanism of action
T3 T4; passesnthrough memebrane, enter nucleaus and bind with receptor links with dna and can now make protein
non-lipid soluble?
protein hormones
to much hormone
hypersecretion
to little hormone
hyposecretion
3 ways growth hormones promote growth,
Incr amino accid uptake
incr lipolysis
incr glycogenolysis
bllod glucose levels are to low, the hypathalmus will create GH to regualte Glucose level
hypoglycemia
bllod glucose leves are to high so the hypothalmus respngs by stoppin production of gh
hyperglycima
