  40. 4 Peripheral Nervous System
    • Somatic Sensory- nerves transmit sensations involved in touch, pressure, pain, temp., and position
    • Somatic motor- these efferent fibers carry impulses to the skeletal muscles
    • Visceral sensory- these afferent tracts transmit sensations from visceral organs. such as a full bladder
    • Visceral motor- these efferent fibers exit the CNS and branch to supply nerves to the involuntary cardiac muscle and smooth muscle

    normally 4 are located on the posterior lateral surface of the thyroid

    Parathyroid hormone (PTH)- increase blood calcium levels
  52. Thymus gland
    larger in children but shrinks by adulthood

    Thymosin- promotes maturation of T Lymphocytes (responsible for cell immunity)
  53. Pancreas
    contain both endocrine and exocrine tissues

    • exocrine- known as acini secrete digestive enzymes essential to digestion of fats and prooteins
    • Endocrine tissue is known as islets of langerhans three most important endocrine cells are, alpha, beta, delta
    • Alpha and beta produce glucagon, insulin
  54. Glycongenolysis
    the breakdown of glycogen to glucose, primarily by the liver cells
  55. Glucongeogensis
    conversion of protein and fat to form glucose
  56. Outer adrenal glands

    • secretes three classes of steroidal hormones
    • Glucocorticoides
    • Mineralocorticoids
    • Androgenic
  57. Interior Adrenal glands
    • "adrenal medulla" - cells behave as both nerve and gland
    • responsible for secreting epinephrine and norepinephrine
