Our nervous system allows us to sense and respond to our external environment and also allows us to control the internal activities of our bodies to maintain homeostasis.
![Page 2: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
There is only one nervous system. However, anatomists and physiologists have found it useful to partition it into various divisions. Structurally, it can be divided into the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS).
![Page 3: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The peripheral nervous system (PNS) includes the cranial nerves that arise from the brain and the spinal nerves that arise from the spinal cord. Also included are ganglia, which are clusters of nerve cell bodies located outside the CNS.

Together the CNS and PNS collect information with the help of receptors in the PNS, process and evaluate sensory input so the CNS can determine the appropriate response, and then respond by sending impulses via the PNS to effectors (muscles and glands).

There are two distinct cell types that form nervous tissue:
Neurons, which are excitable Glial cells, which are supportive
Nervous tissue cells of the CNS
![Page 12: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Neurons are the basic structural unit of the nervous system and conduct impulses from on part of the body to another. They have a high metabolic rate, they have extreme longevity, and most cease mitosis after fetal development.
![Page 13: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Dendrites conduct impulses towards the cell body while axons conduct impulses away from the cell body.
![Page 15: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
![Page 16: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Neurons are classified into three types: Sensory (afferent) neurons, motor (efferent) neurons, and interneurons (association neurons). It is estimated that 99% of all neurons are interneurons.
![Page 17: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Glial cells (neuroglial cells) are capable of mitosis, do support, nourish, and protect neurons, and collectively account for one-half the volume of the nervous system. There are four types found in the CNS (shown above) and two types found in the PNS.
Glial cells of the CNS
![Page 18: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The most abundant type of glial cells are the astrocytes, so named because of the cytoplasmic projections that give the cells a star-like shape.
![Page 19: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Astrocytes envelop the brain capillaries and reduce capillary permeability. This helps create the blood-brain barrier.
![Page 20: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
![Page 21: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Ependymal cells line the internal cavities (ventricles) of the brain and the central canal of the spinal cord (CNS). These cells, and nearby capillaries, form a network called the choroid plexus, which produces cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).
![Page 22: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Choroid plexi are formed by the ependymal cells that line the ventricles and by nearby blood vessels. CSF is essentially a filtrate of plasma.

Microglial cells are wandering phagocytic cells that ingest and remove debris throughout the CNS.
![Page 24: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Oligodendrocytes are cells that ensheathe portions of axons in the CNS by repeatedly wrapping around an axon to create a myelin sheath.
![Page 25: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Satellite cells are flattened cells that arrange around neuronal cell bodies in ganglia of the PNS and help regulate the movement of nutrients and waste products
![Page 27: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Note numerous dark satellite cells arranged around pink neuronal cell bodies in a ganglion of the PNS. They regulate the movement of nutrients and wastes.

Schwann cells (neurolemmocytes) are responsible for forming the myelin sheath around axons in the PNS.
![Page 29: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

A nerve is a cable-like bundle of parallel axons. While a single axon tends to be microscopic, nerves are larger and tend to be visible to the naked eye.
![Page 34: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Sensory nerves convey sensory information to the central nervous system and all axons are conducting impulses in the same direction.
![Page 35: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Motor nerves convey motor impulses from the central nervous system to the muscles and glands and all the axons are conducting impulses in the same direction.
![Page 36: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Mixed nerves carry both types of information and some axons are transmitting impulses in one direction, while other axons are transmitting impulses in the opposite direction.
![Page 37: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Nervous tissue development begins in the embryo during the third week of development. A neural groove appears and by the end of the third week the sides of this groove come together and fuse along the midline to form a neural tube.
![Page 40: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
The neural tube has an opening near the future head and an opening near the future buttocks.
![Page 41: 13 Nervous Tissue](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/556180c7d8b42a171a8b5512/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
If the openings in the neural tube do not close, the developing human will have a neural tube defect.
