The Types of Tissues Found in the Brain
By: Ryan LaMontagne, Vlad Marinski, and Mary Yousif
Slide2Neuron Nervous
Primary Name: Nervous TissueSub-Primary: NeuronForm: The basic cells are called neurons or nerve cells. Because neurons communicate with each other and with muscle and gland cells they can coordinate, regulate, and integrate many body functions. The nervous tissue includes neurological cells. These cells support and bind components of nervous tissue, carry on phagocytosis, and help support nutrients to neurons by connecting them to blood vessels.Function: These cells are the structural and functional units of the nervous system and are specialized to react to physical and chemical changes in their surroundings. Neurons sense certain types of changes in their surroundings. They respond by transmitting nerve impulses along cytoplasmic extensions (cellular processes) to other neurons, muscles, or glands. Sensory reception and conduction of nerve impulses.Location: Brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves.
Slide3Spinal Cord Nervous
Primary Name: Nervous TissueSub-Primary: Spinal CordForm: The spinal cord consists of thirty-one segments, each of which gives rise to a pair of spinal nerves. There is a core of gray matter within the white matter. The pattern of the gray matter resembles a butterfly with its wings spread. In the center of the spinal cord there is the central canal which contains cerebrospinal fluid. Function: The spinal cord has two major functions, conducting nerve impulses and serving as a center for spinal reflexes. Transmission of neural signals between the brain and the rest of the body. Location: The spinal cord is a slender nerve column that passes downward from the brain into the vertebral canal.
Slide4Cerebrum
Primary Name: Nervous TissueSub-Primary: CerebrumForm: The cerebrum is the main part of the brain and consists of two large masses called the left and right cerebral hemispheres. A deep bridge of nerve fibers called the corpus callosum connects the cerebral hemispheres. Function: The cerebrum provides higher end functions. It has centers for interpreting sensory impulses arriving from sense organs and centers for initiating voluntary muscular movements. The cerebrum stores the information that comprises memory and utilizes it to reason. Intelligence and personality also stem from cerebral activity. Location: The brain and its four lobes. The cerebrum is divided into four lobes that control senses, thoughts, and movements. The four lobes are occipital, temporal, frontal, and parietal lobes.
Slide5Cerebellum
Primary Name: Nervous TissueSub-Primary: CerebellumForm: The cerebellum is a large mass of tissue located below the occipital lobes of the cerebrum and posterior to the pons and medulla oblongata. It consists of two lateral hemispheres partially separated by a layer of dura mater (falx cerebelli) and connected in the midline by the a structure called the vermis. like the cerebrum, the cerebellum is composed primarily of white matter, with a thin layer of gray matter, the cerebellar cortex, on its surface. Function: The cerebellum communicates with other parts of the central nervous system by means of three pairs of nerve tracts called cerebellar peduncles (the inferior, middle, and superior). The cerebellum is a reflex center for integrating sensory information concerning the position of body parts and for coordinating complex skeletal muscle movements. It also helps to maintain posture. Location: The bottom portion of the brain behind the pons and brainstem.
