GRCC B121 #4 PNS
GRCC BI 121 PNS #4
Question | Answer |
---|---|
PNS divisions | Sensory and motor |
motor | somatic & autonomic |
somatic | concious motor activities |
Autonomic u | unconscious motor activities |
Autonomic divisions | sympathetic & parasympathetic |
Sympathetic = | positive feedback....brings body away from homeostasis...(i.e. temp); emergent response |
Parasympathetic | negative feedback....brings body back to homeostasis; non emergent response |
Which division of the Autonomic response increases heart rate and breathing rates during an emergency? | Sympathetic |
Which division of the ANS decreases HR and respiration following the emergency? | Parasympathetic |
Nerve fiber classifications | functional and structural |
Nerve fiber functional classifications | sensory (afferent), motor (efferent) & mixed nerves (contains both sensory and motor) |
Sensory nerves | Nerve fiber classification that functions as an afferent response;impulse from environment to CNS |
Motor nerves | functions as an efferent response; impulse from CNS to PNS to effector |
Mixed nerves | functions as both an (motor) efferent and (sensory) afferent |
Nerve Structural classification | cranial and spinal |
cranial nerves | these originate from the brain |
Spinal nerves | originate from the spine |
How many cranial nerves? | 12 pairs |
How many spinal nerves | 31 pairs |
Structure of peripheral nerve: the mixed nerve Hierarchy | peripheral nerve - fascicle - fiber/axon |
_______ - fascicle - fiber/acxon | Peripheral nerve |
Peripheral nerve - _______ - fiber/axon | fascicle |
peripheral nerve - fascicle - ___________ | fiber/axon |
Structure of peripheral nerve: CT hierarchy overview | epineurium - perineurium - endoneurium |
_________ - perineurium - endoneurium | epineurium |
Epineurium - __________ - endoneurium | perineurium |
epineurium - perineurium - _______ | endoneurium |
Cranial nerves | O, O, O, T, A, F, V, G, V, A H |
I. Olfactory | Smell/ofaction |
II. Optic | vision |
III. Oculomotor | Move eye, eyelids and iris |
IV. Trochlear | superior oblique muscle eye movement |
V. Trigeminal | Sensory for forehead, face, eyes. |
VI. Abducens | Lateral rectus muscle of eye |
VII. Facial | facial expression & taste buds |
VIII. Vestibulococulear | Equilibrium & hearing |
IX. Glossopharyngeal | Pharynx, tonsils, salivary, posterior tongue. |
X. Vagus | Speech, swallowing, blood vessel diameter |
XI. Accessory | Transmit neck muscles, palate and larynx |
XII. Hypoglossal | Moves tongue |
Which cranial nerves originate from brain stem | all but olfactory |
what is the functional classification of cranial nervers | most are all mixed nerves, with the exception of those associated with special senses (i.e. smell and vision) |
How are spinal nerves named? | Named after vertebrae from whcih they emerge (i.e. cervicl nerve, lumbar nerve, etc) |
How many spinal nerves exist? | 31 pairs |
What is the functional classification of the spinal nerves | They are all classified as mixed nerves |
Where do spinal nerves enter and exit? | They exit from the dorsal and ventral roots. |
Dorsal roots | Sensory neurons entering cord |
Ventral roots | Motor neurons exiting cord. |
Nerve Plexuses | cervical, brachial, lumbar and sacral |
Plexus | interlacing nerve networks |
plexus function | distributes a single function between multiple spinal nerves ensuring redundancy. |
Plexus function Performs a single function between spinal nerves ensuring redundancy. | if a nerve is damaged, rather than there being complete loss of function, it will result in a less serious weakness, as there is still some nerve supply present. |
