Presentation Transcript

  1. Mon 9/19m & Tues 9/20 • Objective: Students will explain the parts and functions of the nervous system, as well as the location and roles of the different parts of the brain. • CBM • Finish Neurotransmitter notes • Video: Nervous System • Notes: Nervous System 3. Video: The Behaving Brain 4. HW: Study for quiz: Neurons, Neurotransmitters and Nervous Syste; Read – pg 72 -83

  2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHKY_kiHk0g Central Nervous System Video

  3. Nervous System Peripheral Central (Brain & Spinal Cord) Autonomic Somatic Sympathetic (Activating) Parasympathetic (Calming)

  4. Nervous System • Nerves • neural “cables” containing many axons • part of the peripheral nervous system • connect the CNS with muscles, glands, and sense organs • Sensory Neurons • neurons that carry incoming information from the sense receptors to the CNS

  5. Brain Sensory neuron (incoming information) Interneuron Motor neuron (outgoing information) Muscle Spinal cord Skin receptors Reflexes

  6. Neurons in the brain connect with one another to form networks Inputs Outputs The brain learns by modifying certain connections in response to feedback The Nervous System • Neural Networks • interconnected neural cells

  7. Video: The Behaving Brain • http://www.learner.org/discoveringpsychology/03/e03expand.html?pop=yes&pid=1525# • Explain the following parts while watching video: • - Brain Stem •   - Cerebellum • - Limbic System • - Amygdala •   - Hippocampus •   - Hypothalamus •   - Thalamus •   - Cerebrum • - Cerebral Hemispheres •   - Corpus Callosum •   - Cortex • Explain an EEG and how it works

  8. Homework Read – pg 72 -83; work on vocab
