NERVE FIBER COVERINGS

• Schwann cells – produce myelin sheaths in jelly-roll like fashion

• Nodes of Ranvier – gaps in myelin sheath along the axon

ANATOMY

Page 36: Unit 6 Nervous System

[email protected] 36

NEURON CELL BODY LOCATION• Most are found in the central nervous system

– Gray matter – cell bodies and unmyelinated fibers– Nuclei – clusters of cell bodies within the white

matter of the central nervous system

• Ganglia – collections of cell bodies outside the central nervous system

ANATOMY

Page 37: Unit 6 Nervous System

[email protected] 37

FUNCTIONAL CLASSIFICATION OF NEURONS

• Sensory (afferent) neurons– Carry impulses from the sensory receptors

• Cutaneous sense organs• Proprioceptors – detect stretch or tension

• Motor (efferent) neurons– Carry impulses from the central nervous system

• Interneurons (association neurons)– Found in neural pathways in the central nervous system– Connect sensory and motor neurons

STRUCTURAL CLASSIFICATION OF NEURONS

• Multipolar neurons – many extensions from the cell body

ANATOMY

Page 40: Unit 6 Nervous System

[email protected] 40

STRUCTURAL CLASSIFICATION OF NEURONS

• Bipolar neurons – one axon and one dendrite

ANATOMY

Page 41: Unit 6 Nervous System

[email protected] 41

STRUCTURAL CLASSIFICATION OF NEURONS

• Unipolar neurons – have a short single process leaving the cell body

ANATOMY

Page 42: Unit 6 Nervous System

[email protected] 42

FUNCTIONAL PROPERTIES OF NEURONS

• Irritability – ability to respond to stimuli

• Conductivity – ability to transmit an impulse

• The plasma membrane at rest is polarized– Fewer positive ions are inside the cell than outside

the cell

ANATOMY

Page 43: Unit 6 Nervous System

[email protected] 43

STARTING A NERVE IMPULSE

• Depolarization – a stimulus depolarizes the neuron’s membrane

• A depolarized membrane allows sodium (Na+) to flow inside the membrane

• The exchange of ions initiates an action potential in the neuron

ANATOMY

Page 44: Unit 6 Nervous System

[email protected] 44

DEPOLARIZATION (ACTION POTENTIAL)

ANATOMY

Page 45: Unit 6 Nervous System

[email protected] 45

THE ACTION POTENTIAL• If the action potential (nerve impulse) starts, it

is propagated over the entire axon

• Potassium ions rush out of the neuron after sodium ions rush in, which repolarizes the membrane

• The sodium-potassium pump restores the original configuration– This action requires ATP

ANATOMY

Page 46: Unit 6 Nervous System

[email protected] 46

NERVE IMPULSE PROPAGATION

• The impulse continues to move toward the cell body

• Impulses travel faster when fibers have a myelin sheath

ANATOMY

Page 47: Unit 6 Nervous System

[email protected] 47

CONTINUATION OF THE NERVE IMPULSE BETWEEN NEURONS

• Impulses are able to cross the synapse to another nerve– Neurotransmitter is released from a nerve’s axon

terminal– The dendrite of the next neuron has receptors

that are stimulated by the neurotransmitter– An action potential is started in the dendrite
