NERVOUS SYSTEM I

CNS (Central Nervous System)

Segmentation

PNS (Peripheral Nervous System)

Spinal Nerves

Neuron Types

Autonomic Nervous System

(how many nervous systems are there anyways?)

Human Anatomy, Larry M. Frolich, Ph.D.

Central Nervous System (CNS)

Brain and Spinal Cord

“Command Central”

PNS (Peripheral Nervous System) are nerves that go out to targets in body

Counting Body Segments(vertebrae versus nerves)

Why are there seven cervical vertebrae but eight cervical nerves?

Dermatomes

Each is sensory area of one spinal nerve

Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)

All nerves that leave the CNS Two Modalities:

SomaticVisceral/Autonomic

Sensory/Afferent(info. In)

Motor/Efferent(commands out)

Autonomic “Targets”

All have dual sympathetic and parasympathetic innervation
