14: The Autonomic Nervous System Objectives Introduction 1. Define autonomic nervous system and explain its relationship to the peripheral nervous system. 2. Compare the somatic and autonomic nervous systems relative to effectors‚ efferent pathways‚ and neurotransmitters released. 3. Compare and contrast the functions of the parasympathetic and sympathetic divisions. ANS Anatomy 4. For the parasympathetic and sympathetic divisions‚ describe the site of CNS origin‚ locations of ganglia

Lab Title: Microscopy Objective: To learn how to use and care for a microscope and to know the parts of a compound microscope and to efficiently use the microscope to focus on specimen. Introduction A microscope is an optical instrument used for viewing very small objects‚ typically magnified several hundred times. It consist of different lenses such as: Scanning = 4X‚ Low power = 10X‚ High power = 40 or 43X‚ Oil Immersion = 100X. A microscope is an instrument

human nervous system‚ inclusive of the CNS (central nervous system) the somatic system‚ and both divisions of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). Include in your outline the major distinctions among these systems. Human Nervous System – Overview The human nervous system is composed of all nerve tissues in the body. The functions of nerve tissue are to receive stimuli‚ transmit stimuli to nervous centers‚ and to initiate response The nervous system has two distinct parts -- CENTRAL and PERIPHERAL

Lab IX: Nervous System Histology and Spinal Cord Part II: Neurons and nerve struture 1.) There are three types of neurons. The first is the multipolar‚ which is the most common‚ and they are found as motor neurons and interneurons throughout the central nervous system. The second type of neuron is the unipolar neuron‚ which are also called psuedounipolar neurons. They are found as spinal and cranial sensory neurons. The last neuron is the bipolar neuron. They are only found in olfactory‚ visual
Premium Neuron Nervous system Axon
Anatomy of Peripheral Nerves Peripheral nerves consist of fascicles that contain myelinated and unmyelinated axons. Endoneurium is the small amount of matrix that is present between individual axons. The perineurium is a sheath of special‚ fiber-like cells that ties the axons of each fascicle together. Epineurium is the connective tissue that surrounds the entire nerve trunk and gives off vascular connective tissue septa that traverse the nerve and separate fascicles from one another. | | Single
