2 Δεκ 2015 · This greatly enlarged new edition provides the most detailed and accurate delineations of brain structure available. It includes features which assist in the new fields of neuroscience – functional imaging, resting state imaging and tractography.
Welcome to Module 1: Anatomy & Physiology of the Brain. This module will strengthen your understanding of basic neuroanatomy, neurovasculature, and functional roles of specific brain regions. Lesson 1: Introduction to the Brain. The brain is a dense organ with various functional units.
Learning Objectives. By the end of this section, you will be able to: Identify the anatomical and functional divisions of the nervous system. Relate the functional and structural differences between gray matter and white matter structures of the nervous system to the structure of neurons.
FIGURE 9.2 Nervous system. (a) The nervous system includes the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system (cranial nerves and spinal nerves). (b) The nervous system receives information from sensory receptors and initiates responses through eff ector organs (muscles and glands).
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
This module will offer a basic guide to the structure of the brain and nervous system, starting from a description of neurons and working up to a description of how these are organized into different anatomical systems.
The Nervous System. 2. Basic structure. The nervous system consists of the brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves. It is made up of nerve cells, called neurons, and supporting cells called glial cells. There are three main kinds of neurons. Sensory neurons are coupled to receptors specialised to detect and
