the body part that is inside our head controlling how we feel, think, move, etc.

hjärna

a cell that is responsible for transmitting nerve impulses between the brain and the rest of the body

neuron

each of a group of long thread-like structures in the body that carry messages between the brain and other parts of the body, sensing things is a result of this process

nerv

the inner part of the spine containing a mass of nerves that connects the brain to almost all the body parts

ryggmärg, ryggradskanal

(anatomy) a network of nerves in the abdomen and in front of the aorta that contains several ganglia

solplexus, bukplexus

(anatomy) a mass of neurons that form a nerve center in the body outside the brain or spinal cord

ganglion, nervknut

related to or associated with glia or glial cells in the nervous system

glial, gliacell

a complex arrangement or network of nerve fibers or blood vessels that intersect and intertwine within the body

plexus, nätverk av nerver

a neuron that acts as an intermediary between sensory neurons and motor neurons, or between other interneurons.

interneuron

a bundle of muscle fibers or nerve fibers bound together by connective tissue

fascikel, bunt

a nerve cell that transmits signals from the central nervous system to the muscles, enabling voluntary movements

motorneuron, rörelse neuron

a region in the brainstem that acts as a bridge, connecting different parts of the brain and aiding in essential functions like sleep regulation and sensory-motor coordination

pons, bro

the bundle of nerve fibers that carries visual information from the eye to the brain

optisk nerv

a cranial nerve that contains both sensory and motor fibers

blandad kranialnerv, kranialnerv med både sensoriska och motoriska fibrer

a nerve in the upper limb that provides sensation and controls muscle movement in the hand and forearm

ulnarnerv, nervus ulnaris

a sensory nerve responsible for the sense of smell

olfaktoriska nerven, doftnerv

a cranial nerve responsible for controlling the movement of the eye muscles

ögonmotor nerv, oculomotor nerv

a complex system of interconnected neurons that processes and transmits information in the body

neuralt nätverk, nätverk av neuroner

the fourth cranial nerve responsible for controlling the movement of the superior oblique muscle of the eye

trochleär nerv, fjärde kranialnerv

the fifth cranial nerve that provides sensory information from the face and controls the muscles responsible for chewing

trigeminusnerv, femte kranialnerven

a glial cell in the peripheral nervous system that forms myelin sheaths around nerve fibers

Schwanns cell, glia cell Schwann

a cranial nerve responsible for controlling the muscles of facial expression

ansiktsnerv, ansiktsnerven

a cranial nerve responsible for hearing and balance

vestibulocochleära nerven, hörsel- och balansnerven

a cranial nerve responsible for sensory and motor functions in the head and neck region

glossopharyngeal nerv, glossofaryngeal nerv

a cranial nerve responsible for controlling certain muscles involved in head and neck movements

accessorisk nerv, accessorisk spinal nerv

a cranial nerve responsible for controlling the movements of the tongue

hypoglossusnerven, hypoglossalnerven

a cranial nerve responsible for controlling the movement of the lateral rectus muscle, which enables the eye to move laterally or outward

abducensnerven, nerv för lateral rörelse

a type of nerve cell extension that carries signals from the central nervous system to the muscles, enabling voluntary movement

motorisk nervfiber, motorisk nerve

a division of the autonomic nervous system responsible for regulating rest, digestion, and other essential bodily functions

parasympatiska nervsystemet, autonoma parasympatiska nervsystemet

a specialized cell that transmits electrical signals in the nervous system

nervcell, neuron

the complex network of the brain and spinal cord that controls and coordinates bodily functions and processes

centrala nervsystemet

a non-neuronal cell in the nervous system that provides support and protection for neurons, helps maintain homeostasis, and participates in signaling and other important functions

glia cell, stödcell

a network of nerves and ganglia that connects the central nervous system to the organs, muscles, and tissues of the body, facilitating communication and control

perifera nervsystemet, perifer nervnätverk

the part of the peripheral nervous system that controls and regulates involuntary bodily functions, including heart rate, digestion, and glandular activity

autonoma nervsystemet, vegetativa nervsystemet

a cluster of nerve cell bodies that mediates communication between the central nervous system and the organs

autonomt ganglion, autonom nervganglion

a network of nerves and ganglia that regulates involuntary bodily functions

autonom plexus, autonom nervsystem

a network of nerves that prepares the body for stressful or emergency situations by activating the "fight or flight" response

sympatiska nervsystemet

the part of the peripheral nervous system that is responsible for the voluntary control of body movements and the reception of external stimuli.

somatiska nervsystemet

a type of nerve that carries signals from the central nervous system to the muscles, enabling voluntary muscle movements

motorisk nerv, nerv för muskelrörelse

a network of nerves and receptors that enables the perception of touch, temperature, pain, and body position

somatiskt sensoriskt system, sensoriskt somatiskt system

a bundle of nerves that emerge directly from the brain and innervate structures in the head and neck

kranial nerv, huvud nerv

a singular anatomical structure that carries sensory and motor signals between the spinal cord and the rest of the body

ryggmärgsnerv, spinalnerver

the initial segment of a spinal nerve that emerges from the spinal cord

spinal nervrot, nervrot från ryggmärgen

a body part that carries sensory information from the body to the central nervous system

sensorfiber, sensorisk nerv

the part of the brain that processes and interprets sensory information from the body

sensorisk cortex, cortex för sinnen

a long, slender projection of a nerve cell that conducts electrical impulses away from the cell body towards other neurons or target cells

axon
