regulates voluntary motor control somatic nervous system
(skeletal muscle)
with a bigger axon what will happen have a faster impulse
what are the nerve fibers that are they are the myelinated peripheral neurons
capable of regeneration and
myelination and where are they
located?
how do neurotransmitters, receptors, neurotransmitter is released from the presynaptic
and cell body work together terminal into the synaptic space, then acts on a
receptor on the receiving end of the post-synaptic
membrane
substance p as a neurotransmitter, -substance p is a neurotransmitter in pain
what is its function in pain relief? transmission pathways.
-blocking release of substance p by morphine
reduces pain
role of the medulla oblongata to control HR and BP
membranes surround the brain (order dura mater, arachnoid space, pia mater
from outer to inner)
ICP and factors that contribute to it cerebral spinal fluid, brain tissue, blood supply (want
a balance of all these, one off= increased pressure)
, Circle of Willis role in collateral flow controls lateral blood flow around brain
vagus nerve - fibers carry sensory and motor impulses for
pharynx
- large part of this nerve is parasympathetic motor
fibers
- supply smooth muscles of abdominal organs
vagus nerve function function increasing GI activity, pupil dilation,
vasodilation and decreased HR
the neurotransmitter Act to control
PANS and NE in the control of SANS
alpha 1 regulation as part of SANS to pupil dialtion, vasoconstriction, and decreased GI
control what motility and goose bumps
chronic pain verses acute pain by - chronic 3-6 months
definition - acute less than 3 months
phantom limb pain several years after an amputation the patient
continues to sporadically feel pain in the absent
