5 Neuro concepts 1 - The NS is divided into 2 parts; 2 - The functional unit of the NS is the neuron (they ALL have 4 parts); 3 - There are 3 types of neurons and 3 functional systems; 4 - two types of motor neurons; 5 - Lesions are in the PNS or CNS
4 Neuron parts Dendrites, Soma, Axon, Synapse
The frontal lobe Initates motor movements
The parietal lobe Pain and proprioception
The occipital lobe vision and vision association

Fissures vs sulci fissures - go down to white matter; Sulci - goes to gray matter
GSE voluntary motor – all spinal nerves and cranial nerves III, IV, V, VI, VII, IX, X, XI, XII (lower motor neurons).
GVE autonomic motor – all spinal nerves and cranial nerves III, VII, IX, X, XI (lower motor neurons).
SSA special senses afferents – sight, hearing, cranial nerves II, VIII only.
SVA taste, smell, cranial nerves I, VII, IX, X only.
GVA sensory to internal environment – all spinal nerves, same cranial nerves as GVE (blood pressure, heart rate, blood gas regulation, smooth muscle and gland regulation, visceral organs, blood vessels).
GSA sensory to the environment – skin and mucous membranes, joints (pain, temperature, touch, pressure, proprioception, vibration)
Location of cord segments C1 and C2 both are under C1 vertebra
Location of cord segments C3-C8 They are located in the the vertebra of one ahead of their number (C4 vert has C5 segment)

Location of cord segment of L3 & L4 L3
Location of cord segments of L5-L7 L4
Location of cord segments of S1-S3 L5
Where does the spinal cord end
Spinal nerve exits C1 - exits the lateral vertebral foramen; C2-C7 exits in front of the vertebra of same number; C8 - exits behind C-7; T1 - Cd5 all exit behind the vertebra of it's number.
What divides the spinal cord into symmetrical right and left halves dorsal median sulcus and septum and ventral median fissure
Where in the gray matter are inter and projection neurons found central intermediate and dorsal column

What is the division of white matter called that lies between the entrance of the dorsal roots dorsal funiculus
What is the division of white matter called that lies between the exit of the ventral roots of each side ventral funiculus
What three cranial nerves do not contain GSE fibers Olfactory, oculomotor, and vestibulocochlear
What 4 cranial nerves contain GSA fibers trigeminal, facial, glossopharyngeal and vagus
What two cranial nerves contain SSA optic and vestibulocochlear
What spinal cord segments contribute to the radial nerve C7-T2
Where are the cell bodies of UMNs located the brain
