1 The Central Nervous System 1 The Central Nervous System Brain Spinal Cord Components 2 Protection of the Brain The brain is protected from injury by The skull enough said! You already know this. What else protects your Brain? 3 1
2 Protection of the Brain The Meninges Cover and protect the CNS Enclose and protect the vessels that supply the CNS Contain the cerebrospinal fluid Consists of three layers Dura Mater Arachnoid Layer Pia Mater 4 The Meninges 5 Protection of the Brain Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) Provides a liquid cushion for the brain and spinal cord The brain floats in CSF Formed in choroid plexuses in the brain ventricles 6 2
3 Protection of the Brain CSF Circulation of CSF 7 Protection of the Brain CSF Reabsorption of CSF 8 Protection of the Brain Blood Brain Barrier Prevents most blood borne toxins from entering the brain Impermeable capillaries, surrounded by astrocyte projections creating a double layer, throw in some tight junctions and it works pretty effectively! Not an absolute barrier Nutrients such as oxygen pass through Allows alcohol, nicotine, and anesthetics through 9 3
4 Brain Ventricles Ventricles General Information Expansions of the brain s central cavity Filled with cerebrospinal fluid Lined with ependymal cells Continuous (interconnected) with each other Though flow of CSF is unidirectional Continuous with the central canal of the spinal cord 10 Brain Ventricles The brain s ventricles and associated structures: Lateral ventricles located in cerebral hemispheres Horseshoe shaped from bending of the cerebral hemispheres Third ventricle lies in diencephalon Connected with lateral ventricles by interventricular foramen Cerebral aqueduct connects 3rd and 4th ventricles Fourth ventricle lies in hindbrain Connects to the central canal of the spinal cord Contains median and lateral aperatures 11 Brain Ventricles 12 4

Development of the Brain (Week 5 Birth) 63 21
22 Structure Location Functions Hindbrain Medulla Pons Cerebellum Reticular Formation Midbrain superior & inferior colliculus at the top of the spinal cord above the medulla at the lower rear a network of nerves extends from the medulla to the cerebrum above the pons between the hindbrain and forebrain controls breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure. regulates sensory information and facial expressions. controls movement, coordination, balance, muscle tone, and learning motor skills. monitors the general level of activity in the hindbrain and maintains a state of arousal; essential for the regulation of sleep and wakefulness. relays sensory information from the spinal cord to the forebrain. Pineal Gland on top of the midbrain behind the thalamus involves in circadian and circannual rhythms; possibly involves in maturation of sex organs. 64 Limbic System Thalamus Hypothalamus, Pituitary Gland Optic Chiasm Septum Hippocampus Amygdala Mammillary Body, Fornix Caudate Nucleus, Putamen, Globus Pallidus, Basal Ganglia (Striatum) in the middle of the limbic system beneath thalamus in front of the pituitary gland adjacent to hypothalamus within the temporal lobe in front of the hippocampus linked to the hippocampus outside the thalamus relays incoming information (except smell) to the appropriate part of the brain for further processing. regulates basic biological drives, hormonal levels, sexual behavior, and controls autonomic functions such as hunger, thirst, and body temperature. left-right optic nerves cross-over point. stimulates sexual pleasure mediates learning and memory formation. responsible for anxiety, emotion, and fear have a role in emotional behavior, learning, and motivation. involves in movement, emotions, planning and in integrating sensory information 65 Cingulate Gyrus Corpus Callosum Forebrain Frontal Lobe (Conscious Brain) Prefrontal Cortex Parietal Lobe Occipital Lobe Temporal Lobe above corpus callosum under the cingulate gyrus in front of the head in front of the frontal lobe in top rear of the head in the back of the head on each side of the head above the temples concentrates attention on adverse internal stimuli such as pain, contains the feeling of self. is a bundle of nerve fibers linking the cerebral hemispheres, involve in language learning. controls voluntary movement, thinking, and feeling. inhibits inappropriate actions, forms plans and concepts, helps focus attention, and bestows meaning to perceptions. contains the primary somatosensory area that manages skin sensation. contains the visual cortex to manage vision. contains the auditory cortex to manage hearing and speech
23 Lateralization of Cortical Functioning The two hemispheres control opposite sides of the body Hemispheres are specialized for different cognitive functions Left cerebral hemisphere more control over: Language abilities, math, and logic Right cerebral hemisphere more involved with: Visual spatial skills Reading facial expressions Intuition, emotion, artistic and musical skills 67 Female/Male Brain Differences 1.Men's brains are larger, but as they age, they also shrink faster than women's brains. 2. Women's brains operate at a higher temperature, due to burning more glucose. 3. Women use more of their brains when they think. 4. Men's brains contain roughly 6.5 times the amount of grey matter related to general intelligence as women's brains, while women's brains contain about 10 times as much white matter related to general intelligence as men's. Researchers point to this finding to explain the controversial belief that in general, men may naturally excel at math while women tend to excel in areas like language. 5. Men tend to score an average of 4 to 5 points higher on intelligence tests, as reported by the journal Intelligence in Sept The average man will think about sex as often as once a minute, while the average woman will think of sex much less often, as infrequently as once every one or two days. 7. Why do women always want to talk? Researchers have found that connecting with another through talking will trigger the pleasure centers in a woman's brain, a high second only to an orgasm. 8. Baby girls have been observed to typically have stronger reactions than boys to disturbing or distressful sounds. 9. A 20 second hug will trigger the release of oxytocin in a woman's brain. The effect of this chemical will often give the woman a feeling of trust in the person hugging her. 10. Many authors and researchers have said that men use fewer words per day than women. Depending on which study you believe (if any), the "word gap" can be anywhere from 1,000 to 10,000 words a day. 68 The Cerebral Cortex Motor Areas Premotor Cortex Located anterior to the precentral gyrus Involved in the planning of movements Receives processed sensory information Visual, auditory, and general somatic sensory Controls voluntary actions dependent on sensory feedback 69 23
