The Nerve Structure and Function

Abstract

In this chapter, information is given about the anatomical structure of the nervous system and nerve cells. The nervous system is discussed under two main headings as the central and peripheral nervous system. Under the heading of the central nervous system, information is given about the brain, medulla spinalis, meninges, and the vessels that feed the central nervous system. The peripheral nervous system is investigated separately in terms of anatomical and functional aspects. In addition, the anatomical structure of the nerve cell and other cells of the nervous system are also mentioned.
