Presentation Transcript

  1. Neuron: Pyramidal cell -Dendritic spines: the little “thorns” on the creepy ominous neuron tree which are points of synaptic contact b/w neurons -Neuronal cell body of pyramidal cell: looks triangular -FYI: axons don’t have spines, but dendrites do

  2. Neuron: Pyramidal cell -Dendritic spines (D) -Axon (A) -You can distinguish between them because axons don’t have spines, but dendrites do *from demo on blackboard sites of synaptic contact with other neighboring neurons

  3. Neuron: Pyramidal cell -Cell soma of pyramidal cell (1) -Apical dendrite (2) -Basal dendrite (3) -Initial portion of axon (4) -Cell soma of neuron in the striatum(5) -Dendrite with spines (6) *from demo on blackboard

  4. Terminal Boutons -(Black arrows) -Terminal Boutons are the terminal knobs that synapse w/ other cells, while Boutons en Passant (buttons in passing) are found along the dendrites. *from demo on blackboard

  5. QUIZ TIME! * View in slide show mode

  6. Name the tissue. Be Specific.

  7. Smooth Muscle! Oh hey Harry Potter Nuclei! Harry Potter nuclei and b/c smooth muscle is always in arteries (aka this thick walled, alien squiggle beast with a lumen full of RBCs)

  8. Name the tissue. Be Specific.

  9. Skeletal Muscle (Lines o’ nuclei, long, multinucleated cells, peripherally located nuclei)

  10. ¿Quéesesto? Be Specific.

  11. Node of that French Guy (Ranvier) Space between the sausage links!

  12. Name the tissue. Be Specific.

  13. Skeletal Muscle (STRIATED, lines o’ nuclei, long, multinucleated cells, peripherally located nuclei)

  19. Dendritic spines

  20. ¿Quéesesto? Be Specific.

  21. Dense regular connective tissue (tendon) Shiny and wavy with THIN nuclei all over the place

  22. ¿Quéesesto? Be Specific.

  23. Motor end plate ...because plunger
