Divisions
•Central nervous system (CNS).▫Brain and spinal cord.
Both contain fluid-filled spaces which contain cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). The central canal of the spinal cord is
continuous with the ventricles of the brain.▫White matter is composed of bundles of
myelinated axons▫Gray matter consists of unmyelinated axons,
nuclei, and dendrites.•Peripheral nervous system.
▫Everything outside the CNS.

Hyperpolarization.
•Gated K+ channels open K+ diffuses out of the cell the membrane potential becomes more negative.

Action Potential
•The Action Potential: All or Nothing Depolarization.▫If graded potentials sum
to -55mV a threshold potential is achieved. This triggers an action
potential. Axons only.

Moving Potential

Saltatory conduction
•In myelinated neurons only unmyelinated regions of the axon depolarize.
Thus, the impulse moves faster than in unmyelinated neurons.

Synapses
•Electrical Synapses.▫Action potentials travels directly from the
presynaptic to the postsynaptic cells via gap junctions.

Chemical Synapses
•More common than electrical synapses.•Postsynaptic chemically-gated channels
exist for ions such as Na+, K+, and Cl-. Depending on which gates open the
postsynaptic neuron can depolarize or hyperpolarize.
