  1. 29.1-2 Nervous System and Neurons 2.1 Atoms, Ions, and Molecules Set up Cornell Notes on pg. 31 • Topic: 29.2 Nervous System and Neurons • Essential Question(s): • Draw and label a neuron on pg. 46 in picture bubble map format. KEY CONCEPT The nervous system provides the means by which organ systems communicate and is composed of highly specialized cells.

  2. KEY CONCEPT The nervous system provides one of the means by which organ systems communicate.

  3. The nervous system controls thoughts, movement, and emotion as well as simpler life processes such as swallowing

  4. spinal chord nerves • The nervous system works quickly, using chemical and electrical signals. • interconnected network of cells (hardwired) • signals move through cells (neurons) • divided into central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS) • CNS- brain and spinal cord • PNS-network of nerves that transmit messages to and from the PNS to the CNS

  5. KEY CONCEPT The nervous system is composed of highly specialized cells.

  6. Neurons (aka nerve cells) are cells that can store information and send and receive messages within the nervous system. • Make up an information network (Like the internet) Cell body axon neurotransmitter Dendrites

  7. A Closer Look at Neurons (4m53s)

  8. 1 Cell body Neurons are highly specialized cells. • A neuron has three parts. 1. cell body has nucleus and organelles

  9. 2 dendrites Neurons are highly specialized cells. • A neuron has three parts. 1. cell body has nucleus and organelles 2. dendrites receive messages from neighboring cells

  10. 3 axon Neurons are highly specialized cells. • A neuron has three parts. 1. cell body has nucleus and organelles 2. dendrites receive messages from neighboring cells 3. axon carries messages to other cells Specialized support cells- such as the myelin sheath- insulate neurons’ axons and helps them send messages

  11. Directions: Please make a picture bubble map of this neuron. Use p. 876-879 in your book to help you. Label all major parts of a neuron (cell body, dendrites, axon, myelin sheath, axon terminals, action potential, synapse, neurotransmitters). Once all parts are labeled, you need to describe the function of each.

  12. Synapse: Gaps between neurons Synapse

  13. Neurotransmitters: Chemical signals released by neurons. Carry information from neuron to neuron. Neurotransmitters

  14. Action Potential: Electrical impulse that carries messages Dendrites receive action potential

  15. NEURON

  16. NEURON

  17. NEURON

  21. NEURON

  22. NEURON

  23. NEURON Dendrites of next neuron

  24. Axon terminal: releases neurotransmitters (chemical signals) Synapse (gap) Axon terminal Dendrites of next neuron

  25. Check your labels: Neurotransmitters NEURON Synapse Cell body axon Myelin sheath Axon terminal Dendrites Action potential

  26. Neurons transmit information in the form of electrical and chemical impulses • When a neuron is stimulated, it produces an electrical signal (action potential) within that neuron • Electrical Impulse reaches axon terminal

  27. synapse 2. Before it can move to the next cell it changes into a chemical signal (neurotransmitter) 3. Neurotransmitters (chemicals) release into synapse. 4. Neurotransmitters stimulate next cell. neurotransmitter vesicles receptor

  28. Neurons and Sensory Neurons (2m59s)

  29. How does the structure of a neuron make it effective in carrying out the functions of the nervous system?

  30. How does the structure of a neuron make it effective in carrying out the functions of the nervous system? Neurons have long extensions called axons, which allow messages to be carried long distances without having to pass the signal to another cell.

  31. 29.2 Types of Neurons 2.1 Atoms, Ions, and Molecules Set up Cornell Notes on pg. 33 • Topic: 29.2 Types of Neurons • Essential Question(s): • None.

  32. How the Nervous System Works (1m59s)

  33. There are 3 types of neurons: • Sensory neurons • Interneurons • Motor neurons

  34. 1. Sensory Neurons: (Think Senses) • Function: Sensory receptors gather information from external/ internal environment and carry impulses along sensory neurons to the CNS • NO INTERPRETATION • Located in PNS Outside: Light & Sound Intensities Inside: Temperature Oxygen Levels pH Levels

  35. 2)Interneurons: • Function: Receives signals from sensory neurons and processes and interprets these messages withinthe CNS • Makes decisions on what needs to be done • Sends messages/instructions to motor neurons • Located in CNS

  36. 3)Motor neurons: • Function: Carry nerve impulses out of the brain or spinal cord to effectors • Effectors: muscles and glands will execute a specific task • Located in the PNS.

  37. Motor Neurons (57s)

  38. Key: Motor Neurons Effectors Receptors Sensory Neurons Interneurons Draw/label on p. 33 1._______________ 2. ________________ 3. ______________ 4. _____________ 5._____________

  39. Key: Motor Neurons Effectors Receptors Sensory Neurons Interneurons 1. Receptors 2. Sensory Neurons 3. Interneurons 4. Motor Neurons 5. Effectors

  40. Key: Motor Neurons Effectors Receptors Sensory Neurons Interneurons 1. 2. 3. 5. 4.

  41. Stimuli and Neurons (4m 16s)

  42. In a nutshell…. • The nervous system can: • Detect changes in the body • Make decisions based on the info received • Stimulate muscles and/or glands to respond • Counteract changes to maintain homeostasis

  43. Types of Neurons “Story” Tree Map (P. 32) Sensory NeuronsInterneuronsMotor Neurons • Function • Location • Function • Location • Function • Location • Give a real life example (Tell a story) • Draw a picture for each 1. The phone rings. The sensory neurons in your ear gather the sound information and send it to the CNS 2. Your brain interprets this information and identifies the sound as the phone ringing. This info is sent to the motor neurons 3. The motor neurons send nerve impulses to your muscles which allow you to answer the phone
