Describe the flow of information within the nervous system from
input to output: stimuli, afferent division/efferent division, CNS/PNS,
somatic/autonomic, motor neurons/sympathetic/parasympathetic,
skeletal/cardiac and smooth muscle
Screen clipping taken: 14/03/2018 11:50 PM
NB: 3rd division of ANS called the enteric/intrinsic nervous system, governs GI system
CNS = brain and spinal cord
Brings info into CNS and sends out responses (efferent)
Has voluntary (skeletal) and involuntary (autonomic) division
Detects stimuli (internal/external)
Controls and coordinates responses
Maintains homeostasis
PNS = peripheral nerve fibres, nerve plexuses
Describe the arrangement of the pia, arachnoid and dura mater
within the cranial cavity and in relation to the brain and selected
cranial dural septa
Present in skull, surround the brain
-
Pia mater (soft)
Arachnoid mater
Outer periosteal layer - firmly attached to the skull
Brain has 2 layers (as opposed to spinal cord)
Dura mater (hard)
3 layers (PAD), from inner to outermost
-
Meninges

Document Summary

Describe the flow of information within the nervous system from input to output: stimuli, afferent division/efferent division, cns/pns, somatic/autonomic, motor neurons/sympathetic/parasympathetic, skeletal/cardiac and smooth muscle. Nb: 3rd division of ans called the enteric/intrinsic nervous system, governs gi system. Brings info into cns and sends out responses (efferent) Describe the arrangement of the pia, arachnoid and dura mater within the cranial cavity and in relation to the brain and selected cranial dural septa. Brain has 2 layers (as opposed to spinal cord) Outer periosteal layer - firmly attached to the skull. Inner meningeal layer - close in contact with arachnoid mater beneath. Separation of 2 layers to form projections called dural septa. Partitions creates dural venous sinuses - drain blood from skull to veins of head and neck. Identify the ventricles of the brain (lateral, 3rd and 4th) Circulates to the central canal of the spinal cord and the subarachnoid space around outside of the brain.
