The Human Nervous System is made up off...
The Peripheral Nervous System and Central Nervous System
1 of 35
The Peripheral system is responsible for
the regeneration of tissue when damaged
2 of 35
The Peripheral Nervous System is made up of...
the autonomic and somatic systems
3 of 35
the autonomic system controls
the activities of the organs and glands
4 of 35
the two areas of the autonomic system are called
the sympathetic and parasypathetic systems
5 of 35
the sympathetic system is responsible for
fight or flight
6 of 35
the parasympathetic system is important for
rest and relaxation
7 of 35
the somatic system controls
external actions such as the muscles and skin
8 of 35
The CNS is made up of
the spinal cord, brainstem and hindbrain
9 of 35
the hindbrain is a collection of what areas of the brain
the medulla, pons and cerebellum
10 of 35
the medulla is responsible for
the extension of the spinal cord and controls the bodies heart rate, blood circulation, respiration, salvation, coughing and sneezing
11 of 35
the pons is
where majority of the cranial nerves join
12 of 35
the cerebellum is responsible for
fine motor skills, coordination and balance, cognitive functions relating to attention and langauge
13 of 35
The midbrain is made up of
superior colliculus, inferior colliculus and the substantia nigra
14 of 35
the superior colliculus is responsible for
vision, specifically eye movement and gaze
15 of 35
the inferior colliculus is responsible for
hearing, specifically sound localisation
16 of 35
substantia nigra is responsible for
movement, specifically projecting information to the basal ganglia to integrate movements.
Also a pathway for dopamine
Also a pathway for dopamine
17 of 35
The different areas to the forebrain are called
Diencephalon, basal ganglia and the limbic system
18 of 35
the diencephalon is built up of
the thalamus and hypothalamus
19 of 35
the thalamus is responsible for
receiving information from sensory organs (not olfaction), transmits and filters the information to the cortex
20 of 35
the hypothalamus is responsible for
regulating body temperature, hunger and thirst and sexual behaviour
21 of 35
the basal ganglia built up of
the caudate nucleus, putamen and the globus paliclus
22 of 35
the basal ganglia participates in
planning behaviour, direct intentional movements emotional expression
23 of 35
the limbic system is built up of
the hippocampus, amygdala and cingulate cortex
24 of 35
the hippocampus is responsible for
learning new memories, integration of new memories into stable knowledge
25 of 35
the amygdala is responsible for
emotional behaviour and the formation of emotional memories
26 of 35
the cingulate cortex is responsible for
linking behaviours with outcomes to motivation and learning
27 of 35
the limbic system is affected in
depression and schizonphrenia
28 of 35
The brain lobes are
frontal cortex, parietal cortex, temporal cortex and the occipital cortex
29 of 35
the frontal cortex is responsible for
movement and complex human cognition and behaviour
30 of 35
the key areas of the frontal cortex are
primary motor cortex, premotor cortex and the broca's area
31 of 35
the parietal lobe is responsible for
body sensation and spatial orientation
32 of 35
the temporal lobe is responsible for
auditory, vision and the wernickes area
33 of 35
the occipital lobe is responsible for
visual space, this is the primary function
and
the recognition of colour, movement and shape, this is the higher function
and
the recognition of colour, movement and shape, this is the higher function
34 of 35
the cortical structures are
prefrontal cortex, brocas area, auditory cortex, postcentral gyrus (somatosensory cortex) wernickes area and the visual cortex
