Mammalian Nervous System

  • The nervous system consists of the central nervous system (CNS) (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS) (all nerves).
  • It allows us to sense and respond to the environment and coordinate body functions.
  • Information is transmitted as nerve impulses (electrical signals) along neurones; a bundle of neurones is a nerve.

The mammalian nervous system

Types of Neurones

  • Sensory neurones carry impulses from sense organs to the CNS.
  • Relay neurones (in the CNS) connect sensory and motor neurones.
  • Motor neurones carry impulses from the CNS to effectors (muscles or glands).
  • Neurones have a long axon insulated by a myelin sheath with nodes of Ranvier; impulses jump between nodes for rapid transmission.
  • Cell bodies have dendrites that connect to many other neurones.

The three types of neurone

The Reflex Arc

  • A reflex action is an automatic, rapid, protective response that does not involve the brain.
  • Pathway: stimulusreceptorsensory neuronerelay neurone (in spinal cord) → motor neuroneeffectorresponse.
  • Example: touching a sharp object causes pain receptors to send impulses via sensory neurone to spinal cord; relay neurone passes impulse to motor neurone; muscle contracts to withdraw foot.

Sense Organs

  • Receptors are groups of specialised cells that detect stimuli and generate electrical impulses.
  • Sense organs contain receptors that respond to specific stimuli (e.g., eyes to light, ears to sound).
  • Impulses from sense organs travel via sensory neurones to the CNS, which coordinates a response via motor neurones to effectors.

Sense organs and their receptors

Hormones in Humans

  • A hormone is a chemical substance produced by a gland, carried by the blood, that alters the activity of target organs.
  • The endocrine system consists of glands that secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream.
  • Insulin (from pancreas) lowers blood glucose by converting glucose to glycogen in liver and muscles.
  • Glucagon (from pancreas) raises blood glucose by converting glycogen to glucose.
  • Adrenaline (from adrenal glands) prepares the body for 'fight or flight': increases blood glucose, heart rate, breathing rate, diverts blood to muscles, dilates pupils.

The major endocrine glands in the body

Homeostasis

  • Homeostasis is the maintenance of a constant internal environment.
  • Negative feedback reverses changes from the set point: if a level rises, mechanisms reduce it; if it falls, mechanisms raise it.
  • Blood glucose is controlled by negative feedback involving insulin and glucagon.

The negative feedback cycle

Homeostasis & Temperature Control

  • Body temperature is maintained at about 37°C by the skin and brain.
  • The brain contains receptors sensitive to blood temperature; skin has temperature receptors that send impulses to the brain.
  • When hot: vasodilation of skin arterioles increases heat loss; sweating cools the body via evaporation.
  • When cold: vasoconstriction reduces heat loss; shivering generates heat; erector pili muscles raise hairs (ineffective in humans).
  • Fatty tissue under the dermis provides insulation.
