cells of body

cells of body

  • Glia cells
    Considered support cells than signaling cells
  • Glia
    Greek word "glue
  • Neurons
    Signaling units
  • Astroyctes
    Transport nutrients from capillaries to neurons
  • Synthesize growth factors
    Buffer potassium in the extra cellular space
  • Radial glia cells
    Guide cells to their proper position during development
  • Oligodendrocytes and Schwann cells
    Insulate axons to increase the speed of action potential conduction
  • Removing debris
    Microglia remove debris after injury or neuronal death
  • Neuron Doctrine
    Brain is composed of independent cells
  • Sensory (afferent)
    Carries sensory input
  • Interneurons
    Refers to any neurons that is not a sensory or motor neuron
  • Motor (efferent)
    Carries comands to muscles
  • Neurons can be classified
    Function
  • Projection neurons
    Projects outside of the structure within which they reside
  • local interneurons
    Projects only within the structure within they reside
  • Axon
    Arises from the axon hilllock
  • Cell body
    Metabolic center
  • Neucleus
    Endoplasmix reticulum,
  • Cajal proposed
    Principle of dynamic polarization, which states that the signals within a neuron flow in one direction
  • Synaptic vesicles
    small spheres in presynaptic axon terminals that contain a neurotransmitter
  • Neurotramitters
    Specialized chemical substance
  • Receptors
    Specialized proteins that react to a neurotransmitter
  • Dendritic spines
    Studded on the dendrites and increase surface are
  • The property of neural plasticity
    Dendritic spines allow their number and structure to be rapidly altered by experience
  • Axon hillock
    Cone shaped area of the cell body that gives rise to the axon
  • Axon collateral
    Branch of an axon that also ends in terminals and innervates other cells
  • Axon transport
    Movement of materials within an axon
  • How many axons emerge from a neuron cell body
    1
  • 2
    Many
  • Which has a larger diameter
    Densities
  • Cajal's principle of connections specificity
    Each cell makes a specific connection at particular points with specific target cells and not others
  • Paul weiss
    Proposed nervous system was a "vast neural network that connects the sense organs and muscles to the brain originates as an undifferentiated and unspecified mesh of randomly connected nerve fibers
  • Roger sorrry
    Found severed, thousands of individuals fibers that make up each optic nerve grow back into the brain
