    aim

    • you will establish the relationship between nerve cell structure and fuction;

    • analyze functions of the nervous tissue and its structural components

  • Slide 3

    Nervous system

    controls and regulates the body

  • Slide 4

    Nervous tissue contains two types of cells:

    • neuron (accept and conduct signals)

    • glia-neuroglia (support and protect neurons)

    • there are more glial cells than neurons

    NEURONS

    consists three parts (cell body, dendrite, axon)

  • Slide 7

    Neuron

    • body (contains most of cell organelles and nucleus)

    • dendrite (short projection of neuron, it receives the nerve signal (information) and transfers it TO the body, one neuron usually has many denrites)

    • axon ( long projection, it send information AWAY from the body, a neuron has only one axon)

  • Question 8

    Q.

    What is the part of the neuron that brings information TO the cell body?

    answer choices

    dendrite

    axon

    Q.

    What is the part of the neuron that takes information AWAY from the cell body?

    answer choices

    dendrite

    axon

    Functionally neurons can be divided into 3 groups

    • Sensory neurons ( receive signals from sensory organs and carry it to the nervous system)

    • Interneurons (they are in the brain and spinal cord, they receive signals from sensory neurons and give them to motor neurons)

    • Motor neurons (take signals from interneurons and send them to effector cells(mostly muscle cells)

  • Question 11

    Q.

    Give an example for sensory organs?

  • Question 12

    Report an issue
    Q.

    Which type of neurons are located in brain?

    answer choices

    Sensory neurons

    Interneurons

    Motor neurons

  • Slide 13

    2 types of axon

    • Myelinated axons are covered by myelin protein. they conduct information faster

    • Unmyelinated axons are not covered by myelin protein. they conduct information slowly

  • Slide 14

    synapse

    connection between two neurons

    ................................

    permits a neuron  to pass a signal to another neuron

  • Slide 15
    Report an issue

    neurotransmitters

    information passes from one neuron to another through special molecules

    .....................

    AXON produces neurotransmitters
