postcentral gyrus


-aka sensory homunculus (little man)


-parts of the body light up on these parts


-left half of body mapped to right side of cortex, reverse for right


-bigger surface is more representation

where and what is the motor cortex?

precentral gyrus

precentral gyrus


-aka motor homunculus


-where all muscle contractions originate


-right muscles mapped to left side, reverse for left


-bigger surface is more repres.


--need more fine movements

what does the blood-brain barrier do?

protects the CNS from endo- and exotoxins

describe the blood-brain barrier

-vomiting center location allows the blood-brain barrier to know there are toxins in blood

-vomiting center location allows the blood-brain barrier to know there are toxins in blood

draw the blood-brain barrier

-astrocytes causes tight junctions to tighten up

-astrocytes causes tight junctions to tighten up

describe the spinal cord

mixed spinal nerve - carries afferent and efferent info, sensory and muscle

why do we have a muscle spindle stretch reflex?

-helps maintain body position (muscle reacts against pushing and shoving)



happens in many muscles across entire body


monosynaptic means?

afferent and efferent neuron are directly connected
