Competency 6: The Nervous System

Upon successful completion of this laboratory, the students
will be able to demonstrate an understanding of the
structural and functional features of the nervous system
including the special sense organs by:

Describing the structure and functions of the spinal cord
and the spinal nerves and their plexuses.

SPINAL MENINGES




Surrounds the spinal cord for physical stability
& Shock absorption
Wall of vertebral canal (no part of meninges)
Epidural space- contains fat and blood vessels

imp for anesthetic injection
 Dura mater- outermost covering of spinal cord
 Subdural space
 Aracnoid mater
 Subarachnoid space- filled with CSF

CSF- shock absorber

diffusion medium for wastes, gases,

nutrients & chemicals
 Pia mater -pia=delicate, mater=mother for nourishment

SPINAL CORD

Dendicular ligaments- prevent lateral movement of the spinal cord


Conus medularis
End part of the spinal cord, like a conus
 Cauda equina- nerve fibers extending after

conus medularis, like a horse tail
 Filum terminale- to anchor spinal cord vertically by connecting it
with coccyx

F- to prevent up & down movement
 Gray matter- it has nuclei

Posterior (dorsal) horns –somatic & visceral sensory nuclei



Anterior (ventral) horns-somatic motor nuclei
Lateral horns- autonomic (visceral) nuclei

Grey commissure- to connect two sides of the grey mater
 Central canal (the hole in the middle)
Conteins CSF(cephalo spinal fluid)
 White matter- it has tracs or fasciculus

Posterior (dorsal) white column (funiculus)

Carry sensory info

Lateral white column (funiculus)
Carry sensory & motor info

Anterior (ventral) white column (funiculus)

Carry sensory & motor info
 Anterior median fissure- deep groove
 Posterior median sulcus- shallow groove

SPINAL NERVES

Posterior root- carry sensory info

Posterior root ganglia- conteins sensory neurons

Anterior root- carries motor info

Posterior ramus (smaller)- carries sensory & motor info


Anterior ramus- (thicker)- carries sensory & motor info

CERVICAL PLEXUS





Serves or innervates neck & shoulder
Phrenic nerve- it extends below the shoulder to the
diaphragm.
It causes the diaphragm to contract
important for breathing

Brachial plexus- serves or innervates upper limb and shoulder
Axillary n- serves deltoid & teres minor
And skin of the shoulder
(From anterior to posterior)Radial nerve- serves posterior upper limb
Musculocutaneous n-serves anterior arm,
