When adequately stimulated, the receptors convert the mechanical or heat stimuli into electrical signals that travel along axons to the brain or spinal cord for interpretation. Some areas of the skin are more sensitive to touch than others. The level of sensitivity depends on receptor density and the size of the receptive field. The receptive field is the area where a stimulus will cause a neuron to fire. For example, the receptive field of a mechanoreceptor in the skin is the patch of skin that particular neuron responds to. Large receptive fields allow a neuron (receptor) to sense changes over a large area but without much precision. In the most sensitive areas of the body, there is a high density of mechanoreceptors with small receptive fields. Desensitization and Thermoreceptors • Our hands—especially our fingertips—are well equipped to collect sensory information from the environment surrounding them. They contain an immense number of sensory receptors. External circumstances, such as temperature, texture and touch prompt these receptors to produce electrical signals. The signals travel via a sensory nerve along the arm to the brain where they are processed, compared to past experiences and finally labeled. • Each receptor is triggered by a specific stimulus. Thermoreceptors detect temperature changes. We are equipped with some thermoreceptors that are activated by cold conditions and others that are activated by heat. Warm receptors will turn up their signal rate when they feel warmth— or heat transfer into the body. Cooling—or heat transfer out of the body—results in a decreased signal rate. Cold receptors, on the other hand, increase their firing rate during cooling and decrease it during warming. • Something interesting happens when your expose receptors to a specific sensation such as heat for a long time: they start to tire out and decrease their activity, thereby you will no longer notice the sensation as much. This desensitization could also alter our sensitivity to what we feel next. Two Point Discrimination: • The two-point discrimination test reveals the ability of the somatosensory system to determine if the skin is being touched in one or two points. If the two points are in an area of skin that has a low touch receptor density and large receptive fields, only one point may be perceived. If the two points are in an area of skin that has a high touch receptor density and small receptive fields, the subject may perceive those two points. That is, two stimuli are perceived as separate if they are stimulating the receptive fields of two different mechanoreceptors. •Watch Dissection Lab Safety Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5EIdXY2_Mc •Watch Eye dissection video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRC1b93ci-E.

The brain and spinal cord are protected by bony structures, membranes, and fluid. The brain is held in the cranial cavity of the skull and it consists of the cerebrum, cerebellum, and the brain stem. The nerves involved are cranial nerves and spinal nerves. Overview of the entire nervous system The nervous system has three main functions: sensory input, integration of data and motor output. Sensory input is when the body gathers information or data, by way of neurons, glia and synapses. The nervous system is composed of excitable nerve cells (neurons) and synapses that form between the neurons and connect them to centers throughout the body or to other neurons. These neurons operate on excitation or inhibition, and although nerve cells can vary in size and location, their communication with one another determines their function. These nerves conduct impulses from sensory receptors to the brain and spinal cord. The data is then processed by way of integration of data, which occurs only in the brain. After the brain has processed the information, impulses are then conducted from the brain and spinal cord to muscles and glands, which is called motor output. Glia cells are found within tissues and are not excitable but help with myelination, ionic regulation and extracellular fluid. The nervous system is comprised of two major parts, or subdivisions, the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system Nervous system (PNS).

  • The Somatic Nervous System Mimi Jakoi, Phd Jennifer Carbrey, Phd
    Introductory Human Physiology ©copyright Jennifer Carbrey & Emma Jakoi The Somatic Nervous System Mimi Jakoi, PhD Jennifer Carbrey, PhD The underlined headings correspond to the two Somatic Nervous system videos. 1. Introduction and structure The efferent portion of the peripheral nervous system consists of the somatic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system controls the function of glands, smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and the neurons of the GI tract. It is composed of two neurons in series that can either excite or inhibit the target organ. In contrast, the somatic nervous system contains single neurons that excite skeletal muscles. The movements controlled by the somatic nervous system can be voluntary or involuntary (reflexes). Motor Unit The axons of motor neurons are myelinated and have large diameters for fast conduction of action potentials. As the axon approaches a skeletal muscle fiber (muscle cell) it usually branches to form synapses with anywhere from three to one thousand muscle fibers. However, each muscle fiber is usually innervated by only a single neuron. A motor unit consists of a neuron and all of the muscle fibers it innervates. A single neuron innervates fibers from only one muscle and the innervated muscle fibers are usually spread throughout the muscle. The portion of the skeletal muscle fiber plasma membrane that synapses with the motor neuron axon is called the motor end plate. Once an action potential arrives at the axon terminal, the depolarization of the membrane opens voltage-gated calcium channels (Fig. 1). An increase in intracellular calcium at the terminal causes release of acetylcholine vesicles into the neuromuscular junction.

  • The Nervous System Think About How Your Body Works
    The nervous system Think about how your body works. Right now you are reading this page, but you are not telling your eyes to read the text; more importantly, you are not consciously reminding your heart to keep beating or your CHAPTER lungs to keep breathing. These are automatic processes that your body completes without conscious thought or instruction. But how does this 4 happen? Your body needs to coordinate communication between all of its organs, systems and muscles, and this is where your central and peripheral nervous systems are involved. When studying the roles of the central and peripheral nervous systems as communication structures between the internal and external worlds, it is easy to consider them separate entities with individual responsibilities. However, this is not how the human nervous system operates in reality. The peripheral nerves connect all of the parts of the body with the central nervous system. OBJECTIVES → Recognise the basic structure and function of the human nervous system, including the central (i.e. brain and spinal cord) and peripheral (i.e. somatic and autonomic) nervous systems → Construct a diagram of a neuron, including the axon, dendrites, the cell body and synapses → Distinguish between sensory, motor and interneurons Source: Psychology 2019 v1.3 General Senior Syllabus © Queensland Curriculum & Assessment Authority SAMPLE FIGURE 1 Digital rendering showing the brain and spinal cord (components of the central nervous system) 86 PSYCHOLOGY FOR QUEENSLAND UNITS 1 & 2 OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS 04_BUR_PSYCH_SB12_13296_TXT_SI.indd 86 7/12/18 11:01 am SAMPLE OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS CHAPTER 4 THE NERVOUS SYSTEM 87 04_BUR_PSYCH_SB12_13296_TXT_SI.indd 87 18/9/18 3:04 pm The nervous system 4.1 KEY IDEAS In this section, you will learn about: ✚ the basic structure of the human nervous system ✚ the central and peripheral nervous systems ✚ the somatic and autonomic nervous systems.

  • The Basic Functions of the Nervous System
    The Nervous System The Basic Functions of the Nervous System • Sensation – The ability of the nerves to detect stimuli, such as pressure, temperature changes, taste, smell or light, and send a message in the form of impulses to the brain and spinal cord. The Basic Functions of the Nervous System • Movement -The ability of the brain to send impulses to muscles to cause movement, or a change in position. The Basic Functions of the Nervous System • Coordination -The nervous system controls and coordinates functions throughout the body and responds to internal and external stimuli. The Two Divisions of the Nervous System 1. The Central Nervous System: is divided into two parts: the brain and the spinal cord. 2. The Peripheral Nervous System: is divided into two major parts: the somatic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system. The Divisions of the Nervous System The Central Nervous System: The Brain • The brain contains approximately 100 billion neurons. The brain weighs about 3 pounds. About 20% of blood leaving the heart circulates through the brain. • The brain is responsible for analyzing information, processing information and relaying messages to the rest of the body. It is the main control center of the body. • Along with the spinal cord, it forms the body’s Central Nervous System or CNS. The Central Nervous System: The Spinal Cord • Along with the brain, it is part of the Central Nervous System. • It is the major communication link between the brain and the rest of the body. • It can process many reflexes – unconscious, automatic responses to stimuli. • There are 31 pairs of spinal nerves which branch from the spinal cord to control such processes as breathing, arm movement, and leg movement.
