There are how many cranial nerves? | 12 |
There are how many spinal nerves? | 31 |
Anterior Spinal Nerves | Motor neurons |
Posterior Spinal Nerves | Sensory neurons |
Nerve Plexus | Intersecting nerves |
Cervical Plexus | Head and neck |
Brachial Plexus | Arm and hand |
Lumbar Plexus | Abdomen, low back and genitalia |
Sacral Plexus | Posterior hip, legs and feet |
Dermatones | Skin area specific to sensory nerve root |
Myotomes | Group of skeletal muscles innervated by single spinal segment |
Parasympathetic Nervous System | Rest & digestion, Slows down heart rate, Maintains homeostasis, Housekeeping system |
Sympathetic Nervous System | Fight or flight, Processes not needed curing stress situation are suppressed, Speed up heart rate |
Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) | Control of involuntary systems and is divided into Parasympathetic and Sympathetic Nervous Systems |
Touch | General sense, Heat, cold, pressure, pain and movement |
Taste | Gustatory glands (taste buds) mediate, Chemosensitive, Strongly influenced by smell |
Olfaction | Chemoreceptors, Strongest sense linked to memory |
Vision | Photoreceptors |
Hearing | Mechanoreceptors, Sound waves or vibrations, Hit tympanic membrane |
Exterorecptors | Stimulus origination from outside of body |
Proprioceptors | Responds to movement and position |
Interoceptors | Respond to stimuli from inside body |
Chemoreceptors | Chemical stimuli, detect smell taste and changes in blood chemistry |
Mechanoreceptors | Detect tactile pressure, blood pressure, vibration, stretching, muscle contraction, proprioceptions, sound and equilibrium |
Photoreceptors | Sensitive to light |
Rods | Photoreceptors that detect black, white and gray |
Cones | Photoreceptors that detect color |
Nocireceptors | Photoreceptors that detect pain in most bodily tissues |
