Topics of this game:
- (CNS) Brain and Spinal Cord
- (PNS) Cranial/Spinal nerves... Somatic Nervous System and Autonomic Nervous System
- Collections of neurons in the CNS
- Collections of neurons in the PNS
- Collections of axons in the CNS
- Collections of axons in the PNS
- Afferent; Carry info INTO the CNS from sense organs
- Efferent; Carry info away FROM the CNS (for muscle control)
- Connects the brain with the periphery
- Connects the spinal cord with the periphery
- Connects the skin or muscle with the CNS
- Connects the internal organs with the CNS
- Results in dysarthria
- Can result in aphasia, apraxia and some dysarthria
- Responsible for thought, voluntary mov't, language, reasoning and perception
- Responsible for mov't/coordination and meditation, balance and posture
- Controls body temp., emotions, hunger and thirst
- Important for sensory processing and movement
- Important for learning, damage can impact memory skills
- Responsible for basic life functions (breathing, heart rate, BP) and complex mov'ts (swallowing)
- Motor, reasoning, problem solving, speech production
- Auditory skills and comprehension
- Visual spatial integration, auditory integration
- Visual skills and interpretation
- Integration of autonomic functions an visceral functions
- Olfactory (sensory), sense of smell
- Optic (sensory), visual acuity- sends info from retina
- Oculomotor (motor), constricts the pupils, visual tracking, eye mov't
- Trochlear (motor), eye mov't
- Trigeminal (sensory+motor), S for touch, pain from head/neck, M for muscles of mastication
- Abducens (motor), eye mov't
- Facial (sensory+motor), taste (anterior 2/3 of tongue), S from ear, M of facial expression
- Auditory/Vestibulocochlear (sensory), hearing and balance
- Glossopharyngeal (sensory+motor), taste (posterior 1/3), S from pharynx, M to pharynx
- Vagus (sensory+motor), M+S for muscles of pharynx, larynx. Innervates esophagus, other internal organs
- Spinal Accessory (motor), trapezius and sternocleidomastiod muscles
- Hypoglossal (motor), lingual muscles
