Chapter 13 Spinal Cord

processes reflexes

Spinal cord funct

Conducts sensory impulses to the brain and motor impulses to the effector

Spinal cord funct

Integrated EPSPs and IPSPs

Spinal cord funct

Process Reflex

quick, automatic response-only involves spinal cord and spinal nerves

Integrated EPSPs and IPSPs

graded potential produce when neurotransmitter interact at synapse with receptors in spinal cord-gray matter of spinal cord

Conduct sensory impulses

white matter of the spinal cord contains motor and sensory input to the brain and motor output from the brain to muscle and other effectors

Subarachnoid Space

between the arachnoid and pia matter filled with cerebospinal fluid which provide some shock absorption

Cervical Enlargement

nerves of the upper extremities emerge

Lumbar Enlargement

nerves to the lower extremities emerge

filum terminale

an extension of the pia mater arising from the conus medullaris that fuses with the arachnoid and dura maters to anchor the spinal cord to the coccyx

Anterior (ventral) roots/rootlets

contains axons of motor neurons that conduct impulses from the CNS to effector

Posterior (dorsal) root/rootlets

contains only sensory neurons conducting impulses from sensory receptors in the skin, muscles, and internal organs to the CNS

each root has a root ganglion containing cell bodies of the sensory neurons

Posterior (dorsal) root/rootlets

resembles a "horse tail"

Cauda equina

Cauda equina

nerve roots that angle inferiorly along the filum terminale

Gray commissure

connect the two sides of gray matter

Central Canal

small space in the gray commisure that contains cerebrospinal fluid

Gray Matter (Horns)

divided on either side of spinal cord into regions

Posterior (dorsal) gray horns

sensory neurons

Anterior (ventral) gray horns

motor neurons

Lateral gray horn

autonomic motor nuclei

Anterior (ventral) white column (funiculus)

White matter region

Posterior (dorsal) white column (funiculus)

White matter region

Lateral white column (funiculus)

White matter region

Mixed Nerve

spinal nerve because it contains both sensory and motor axons

Endoneurium (Spinal Nerve C.T.)

surrrounds each axon within a nerve, whether its myelinated or unmyelinated

Perineurium (Spinal Nerve C.T.)

groups of axons are bundled into fasicles which are surrounded by the perineurium connective sheath

Epineurium (Spinal Nerve C.T.)

surrounds entire nerve

Conus Medullans

where the spinal cord terminates inferiorly to the lumbar enlargement and ends at the intervertebrae disc L1 and L2

a conical structure

Conus Medullans

Posterior (dorsal) ramus (spinal nerve branch)

serves deep muscles and skin of posterior trunk

Anterior (ventral) ramus (spinal nerve branch)

serves muscles/structures of upper and lower limbs and skin of anterior and lateral trunk

Meningeal Branch (spinal nerve branch)

reenters vertebral cavity and supplies vertebrae, meninges and vertebral ligaments

Rami Communicantes

component of the ANS

Dermatomes

segments of the skin that are supplied by spinal nerves that carry somatic sensory nerve imulses to the brain

Motor Output

from the spinal cord to skeletal muscles involves somativ motor neurons of the anterior gray horn

Intercostal (thoracic) nerves

anterior rami of spinal nerves T2-T12; doesnt form plexus

supply structures in the intercostal spaces

Intercoastal (thoracic) nerves

Plexus

networks with anterior rami adjacent nerves

Cervical Plexus

supplies the skin and muscles of the head and neck, superior portion of shoulders and chest, diaphragm

Brachial plexus

provides almost the entire nerve supply to the shoulder and upper limbs

Lumbar plexus

supplies the anterclateral abdominal wall, external genitalia, and part of the lower limbs

Sacral Plexus

supplies the buttocks, perineum, and lower limbs

Direct Motor Pathways (pyramidal pathways)

convey impluses from cerebral cortex of brain to cause voluntary movements of skeletal muscles

Indirect Motor Pathways (extrapyramidal pathways)

convey impulses from the brain stem of the brain to cause autonomic movements and help the body coordinate body movements with visual stimuli

Reflex Arc

pathway which nerve impulse follows to produce reflex

Sensory receptor (reflex arc)

responds to a stimulus by producing a generator or receptor potential

Sensory Neuron (reflex arc)

axon conducts impulses from receptorto integrating center

Integrating Center (reflex arc)

one or more regions within CNS that relay impulses from sensory to motor neurons

Motor Neuron (reflex arc)

axon conduct impulses from integrating center to effector

Effector (reflex arc)

muscle or gland that responds to motor impulses

Reciprocal Innervation

neural circuit when one muscle contracts and its antagonist relaxes at the same time

Shingles

acute infections of the nervous system cause by herpes zoster (chicken pox), lays in posterior root ganlion, occurs when immune sytem is weakened

Poliomyelitis

can cause paralysis due to virus destroying cell bodies of motor neurons

Tendon reflex

causes relaxation of the muscle attached to the stimulated tendon

prevents muscle force from becoming strong enogh to tear tendon and can override the stretch reflex when tension is too great

Tendon reflex
