17 views9 pages
Document Summary
Conduct information from receptor to central nervous system: interneuron. Conduct info between sensory and motor neurons: motor. Conduct info from cns to effector cell (muscle, organ, tissue: neuron structure, cell body. Most of organelles, nuclei, er located: dendrites. Part of neuron that receives info from other neurons: axon. Conducts info away from cell body and into output end of neuron: axon hillock. Result of schwann cell growing and wrapping around the cell. Important in terms of aiding in speed of conduction of info along axon: membrane potential, all cells have an electrical gradient or electrical potential across their cell membrane, measured with outside being = 0. Recording electron on the inside: inside is generally -50 to -100 mv (negative relative to the outside) Outside the cell: high [] na, high [] cl- Inside the cell: high [] k, high [] organic molecules (-) K+ diffuse out the cell: more positive molecules outside the cell than inside.
