1. Nervous sistem
2. The central nervous system contains
Neurons – the nerve cellsNeuroglia – the connective tissue of the
nervous system
The cells of meninges – the cover of the
central nervous system
Blood vessels
Nerves
3. The neuron
= the functional and structural units ofnervous system.
- specialised for reception, integration,
transfromation and onward transmission.
Cell body or soma (nucleol with
nucleolus and cytoplasm with Nissl
bodies)
Dendrites
Axon

6. Impulse travel
In the dendrite the nerve impulse alwaystravels towards cell body.
In the axon the impulse traveles away
from the cell body.
The axon ends in many ramifications
(flower buchet) , and each has a terminal
button.
In the terminal button – small blisters
with chemical mediator
7. Types of neurons
8.
Multipolar – make almost the entireneuronal population of central nervous
system (brain & spinal cord)
Bipolar – sensory neurons ( olfactory,
visual, auditory, vestibular)
Unipolar – has a single process which
divides into two (axon and dendrite). Are
found in dorsal nerve root ganglia,
sensory ganglia of cranial nerves. (the
nucleus of trigeminal 5 nerve is unipolar)
9. According to length of axons
Golgi type 1 with long axon (axon leavesCNS)
Golgi type II with short axon (axon
remains within CNS)
10. Sheath’s of the axon
Myelin – gives Ranviernodes - impulse jumps
Sheat of Schwann cell secrete myelin. Each cell for
each cilinder of myelin.
Conjunctive sheat Henle –
for strength
Sheath’s of the axon
11.
In the gray matter the neurites don’t havemyelin and Schwann sheat.
They get it after they enter into the white
matter (first myelin sheat and after it
formes the periferic nerve it gets the
Schwann sheat)
12. Depolarizations sites
13. Classification of nerve fibers
Tipe A – myelinated- according to functional
A:
Motor alpha –somatic - for the fast skeletal
muscle
Motor beta – somatic - for the slow
skeletal muscle
Motor gamma - fibers of the muscle
effector spindles
14. Classification of nerve fibers
B: muscle sensory nerve fibersC: cutaneous sensory nerve fibers
Type B - myelinated
leading sensitivity exteroceptors,
preganglionic autonomic fibers
Type C – nonmyelinated
postganglionic autonomic fibers
15. Synapse
= is a structure that permits a neuron (ornerve cell) to pass an electrical or chemical
signal to another neuron
Or
= the communication from a neuron to any
other cell type, such as to a motor cell,
although such non-neuronal contacts may
be referred to as junctions.
16. Synapse
17. Synapse
There are two fundamentally differenttypes of synapses: chemical and electrical
synapse
In a chemical synapse, electrical activity in
the presynaptic neuron is converted (via
the activation of voltage-gated calcium
channels) into the release of a chemical
called a neurotransmitter that binds to
receptors located in the plasma
membrane of the postsynaptic cell.
18. Chemical synapse
Chemical synapses can be classifiedaccording to the neurotransmitter released:
glutamatergic (often excitatory),
GABAergic (often inhibitory),
cholinergic (vertebrate neuromuscular
junction),
adrenergic (releasing norepinephrine).
19. Electrical Synapse
In an electrical synapse, the presynapticand postsynaptic cell membranes are
connected by special channels called gap
junctions or synaptic cleft that are capable
of passing an electric current, causing
voltage changes in the presynaptic cell to
induce voltage changes in the postsynaptic
cell. The main advantage of an electrical
synapse is the rapid transfer of signals
from one cell to the next.

21. Types of interfaces Synapses can be classified by the type of cellular structures serving as the pre- and post-synaptic
components.22. Synapse - Role in memory
a role in the formation of memory.the connection between the two neurons
is strengthened when both neurons are
active at the same time, as a result of the
receptor's signaling mechanisms.
23. Neural pathway
A neural pathway, is a series of neuronsconnected together to enable a signal to be
sent from one brain region to another.
Neurons are connected by a single nerve
fibre or by bundles of nerve fibres known
as tracts.
24. Neural pathway
A neural pathway that serves to connectrelatively distant areas of the brain or
nervous system is a bundle of neurons,
known collectively as white matter
A neural pathway that spans a shorter
distance between structures, such as most
of the pathways of the major
neurotransmitter systems, is usually called
grey matter
25. Bundles and nerve pathways
Afferent pathways, sensory or upwardAt leats 3 neurons: 1 in spinal ganglia
II in spinal cord
III in thalamus
Efferent pathways, descending: 2 neurons:
- one central motor neuron in the cortex
- one peripheral motor neuron in the spinal
cord or in the cerebral trunk.
