The document summarizes the main components and structures of the central and peripheral nervous systems. The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord. The brain is divided into the forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. The forebrain includes the cerebrum, diencephalon, and limbic system. The cerebrum is made up of four lobes - frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital - each with different functions. The peripheral nervous system includes spinal nerves, cranial nerves, and the autonomic nervous system. The document provides details on the structures and functions of these various components of the nervous system.

21. DIENCEPHALONDIENCEPHALON

22. DIENCEPHALON
The diencephalon connects the cerebrum
with lower brain structures.
 Its major structures include the thalamus,
hypothalamus, and limbic system.

23. THALAMUS
•The thalamus integrates all sensory input (except smell) on its
way to the cortex.
•The thalamus is also involved in temporary blocking minor
sensations, so that an individual can concentrate on one
important event when necessary.
•The thalamus also has some involvement with emotions and
mood.

24. Functions of thalamus
• Receiving visual and sensory signal
• Relay sensory signal to the cerebral cortex
• Memory formation and emotional expression
pain perception
• Control sleep and awake states

25. Thalamus damage
• Problems related to sensory perception
• Sleep disorders
• Auditory issue
• THE thalamus damage can also lead to
permanent coma

26. HYPOTHALAMUS
The Hypothalamus is located just below the thalamus
and just above the pituitary gland and has a number of
diverse functions:
Regulation of Appetite
Regulation of temperature

27. Regulation of the pituitary gland

28. LIMBIC SYSTEM
The limbic system, which is sometimes called the
“emotional brain,” is associated with fear and
anxiety; anger and aggression; love, joy, and hope;
and sexuality and social behavior.
•

29. HIPPOCAMPUS
• The hippocampus is located in the inside fold of each
temporal lobe below the thalamus.
• It is the site of the intersection between the storage of
memories and their reproduction with emotional
colouring.
• Alzheimer’s disease cause damage to the
hippocampus.

30. AMYGDALA
• THE amygdala is responsible for determining
what memories r stored and where memories
are stored.
• It is responsible for fear sexual arousal, and
aggressions

31. membranes

• Dura mater
• Arachnoid mater
• Pia mater
The Dura mater and arachnoid maters are separated by a
potential space, the subdural space. The arachnoid and
pia maters are separated by the subarachnoid space,
containing CSF.

34. Cerebrospinal Fluid
• CSF is secreted into each ventricles of the brainCSF is secreted into each ventricles of the brain

37. MESENCEPHALON

38. The mesencephalon extends from the Pons to
the hypothalamus.
 It is responsible for the integration of various
reflexes, including visual reflexes auditory
reflexes and righting reflexes.

39. HIND BRAIN

40. • The Pons is the bulbous structure.
• It also play a key role in sleep
• Forms connection between the cerebellum and the
brainstem.
• It also contains the central connections of cranial
nerves

41. MEDULLA
It is most important part of brain its function are
involuntary:or done without thought.
 It contains vital centers that regulate heart rate, blood
pressure, and respiration, and reflex centers for
swallowing, sneezing, coughing, and vomiting.

42. CEREBELLUM

It is situated just below the occipital lobes of the
cerebrum.
 The functions are concerned with involuntary
movement, such as muscular tone and coordination
and the maintenance of posture and equilibrium.

43. Spinal cordSpinal cord

44. It is approximately 45 cm long in an adult
male, and is about the thickness of the little
finger.
When specimen of CSF is required it is taken
from a point beyond the end of the cord i.e.
below the level of 2nd
lumbar vertebrae.
The spinal cord is the nervous tissue link
between the brain and the rest of the body.

49. SPINAL NERVES
There are 31 pairs of spinal nerves
• 8 cervical
• 12 thoracic
• 5 lumbar
• 5 sacral
• 1 coccygeal
The spinal nerves arise from both sides of the
spinal cord and emerge through the
