compare and contrast lens and cornea:
|
lens can be shaped, cornea is static...both allow light in...both are transparent...not vascular.Lens focuses, cornea Protects
|
|
function of ciliary muscles
|
pupil diameter and hold and alter shape of lens
|
|
describe the retina:
|
photoreceptor, bipolar and ganglion (inside to outside)....ganglion layer is surface of retina ****the ganglion consists of unipolar neuron forms optic nerve, T or F ..... answer is FALSE**** function of bipolar layer ****consists of bipolar neurons performs unknown function in mammals, T or F.,.answer is TRUE*****
|
|
list the major landmarks of the spinal cord
|
cervical enlargement, lumbar enlargement, conus medullaris, filum terminale and cauda equine. Where does conus medullaris end? between L1 and L2.
|
|
contralateral
|
opposite side
|
|
ipsilateral
|
same side
|
|
explain CSF
|
made by coroid plexus in lateral ventricles, runs from brain thru spinal cord, no red blood cells, blood brain barrier(tight junctions around brain capillaries forms the blood barrier, the barrier is selective in what can cross)....has no immune response, so we have no defense in the spinal cord or brain (meningitis)
|
|
corpus collosom
|
acts as gateway between the two hemispheres of brain
|
|
what is function of fovea centralis
|
highest concentration of photo receptors’, sharpest image put image there
- optic nerve is conduit out of eye for nerve impulses generated there .... • -optic disc is the blind spot |
|
eye movement:
|
muscles 4 rectus, 2 obliques
|

decussation
|
contralateralization are the same....cross over.
|
|
amygdala
|
place for emotional memory normal shapes
|
|
meningitis
|
inflammation of dura, arachnoid and pia maters
|
|
spinal cord end at
|
L1
|
|
encephalitis
|
inflammation of brain and neurons is TRUE
