Document Summary

Sensory input detect external and internal changes in environment. Integration processes sensory input and decides if a response is required. Motor output sends down motor messages to respond to stimulus. Divided into sensory (afferent), and motor (efferent) Sensory: receives information form receptors and transmitting it to cns. Somatic (body) pain, pressure: visceral (organs) blood vessels, digestive organs, respiratory organs. However, when they become strong enough, (ex. stomach stretched b/c ate too much) becomes sensory. Motor: transmitting motor impulses from cns to muscles or glands. Somatic conscious contraction of striated/ skeletal muscles to cause movement: visceral unconscious contraction of smooth muscle, cardiac, or glands, autonomic (sympathetic/parasympathetic) Neuron: responsible for sensory input, integration, motor input. Dendrites: extensions of cytoplasm that are responsible for directing information toward cell body. Axon: extension of cytoplasm that is responsible for directing information away from the cell body. Regulate what substances come in contact with the neuron. Oligodendrocytes: production on myelin around axon in cns.
