means bridge, connects the brain stem to the rest of the brain or "high brain", regulates breathing
thalamus
relay center, router, switchboard. Directs traffic - sorts the messages and gets them from the spine to the parts of brain.
hypothalamus
homeostasis
epithalamus
makes cerebral spinal fluid
cerebral spinal fluid
cushions, blood brain barrier
Meninges anatomy
Dura mater (outermost), arachnoid mater (middle), pia mater (innermost).
Subarachnoid space
place where the csf lies
csf pathway
1. epithalamus. 2. fill ventricles (center of brain). 3. travel through "cerebral aqueduct". 4. central canal. 5. leaks from the medularis conas into subarachnoid space of spine. 6. up the outside of spine to outside the brain. 7. out the arachnoid villi.
cerebellum function
coordination or balance
mesencephalon

Mirror nerve location
Frontal Lobe, Pre-motor cortex, (planning movement
Mirror nerve function
lack of empathy
Limbic system parts and funtion
Parts: Hypothalamus, amygdala, hippocampus. Function: Emotional system, keeps you from doing something stupid. Memory
Muscles the ANS talks to
Involuntary
ANS is controlled by
limbic system: Sympathatic or Parasympathetic
Sympathetic wire location
thoraco-Lumbar region
Parasympathetic wire locations
cranial-sacral region
Sympathetic characteristics
fight or flight
parasympathetic charasteristics
rest and digest
sympathetic neuron charasteristics
short 1st neuron, long 2nd neuron or short pregangleonic fiber and long post ganglionic fiber
parasympathetic neuron charasteristics
long 1st neuron, short 2nd neuron or long pre-gangleonic fiber and short post-ganglionic fiber
sympathetic neurotransmitters
Acetylocholine from pre to post and epinephrine (adreneline) to organ
Parasympathetic neurotransmitters
acetelocholine from pre to post and to organ
Ascending tracts
spino-cerebellum, spino-thalamic, dorsal columns.
decending tracts
cortisospinal, rubrospinal, reticulospinal
spino cerebellar
doesn't cross, balance
spino thalmic
pain and temp, crosses at spine and then goes up
dorsal columns
touch, crosses at the medula oblongatta
cortisospinal
voluntary motor, crosses at medula oblongatta
rubrospinal
muscle tone (keeping your back straight so you don't fall over), crosses at the medula obsongatta
reticulospinal
muscle tone (keeping your back straight so you don't fall over), crosses at the medula obsongatta
sympathetic effects on pupils
get big to see everything
sympathetic effects on tear glands
not working, energy directed else where
sympathetic effects on sweat glands
dripping. super active
sympathetic effects on arrector pili
stimulates them...goosebumps
sympathetic effects on blood vessels to skin
constricts...sends the blood elsewhere like muscles
sympathetic effects on blood vessels to skeletal muscles
floods them so you can fight or flight
sympathetic effects on blood vessels to lungs
floods them so you can fight or flight
sympathetic effects on blood vessels to digestive organs
constricts. Shuts down digestive organs
sympathetic effects on blood vessels to kidneys
constricts. Shuts down urinary tracts
sympathetic effects on blood vessels to brain
normal.
sympathetic effects on heart
makes heart beat faster to circulate more blood
sympathetic effects on airways
opens up wider
sympathetic effects on digeestive activity
shuts the activity down
sympathetic effects on digestive glands
stops their secretions
sympathetic effects on liver
increases activity. to speed up energy releases
sympathetic effects on skeletal muscles
super activates them...preps them for activity
sympathetic effects on adipose tissue
no affect...doesn't create new tissue
sympathetic effects on kidney
stops it...
sympathetic effects on urinary bladder
stops it...energy gets placed elsewhere
sympathetic effects on male reproductive organs
required for sexual gratification but must have a parasympathetic reaction first
sympathetic effects on female reproductive organs
required for sexual gratification but must have a parasympathetic reaction first
parasympathetic effects on pupils
get smaller, normal
parasympathetic effects on tear glands
normal function
