Nervous System Review by professor fink

User Comments

Chester Atkins commented on 23 Dec 2015

QUESSTION: @ 13:06 Professor says the difference is that a Myelinated nerve fiber conducts the AP at a faster speed. Was that just a mistake in speech because I thought the Unmyelinated nerver would get it faster since there is no insulation around it? I'm not criticizing if it was a mistake I just wanted to be clear because now I am confused >.

Chester Atkins commented on 24 Dec 2015

+professorfink Saltatory Conduction! Can we clone you Mr. Fink so everyone has a personal teacher? :D

professorfink commented on 23 Dec 2015

+Chester Atkins   Myelinated nerve fibers DO conduct APs at a FASTER velocity than unmyelinated nerve fibers.  The explanation for this (& "salutatory conduction") can be found in my VideoLecture on Action Potentials in Neurophysiology (beginning at about 36 minutes into the video):  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRwmCtK7h4Y

Trinitro phenylnitramine commented on 13 Sep 2015

what is the difference between taking A & P combined and A & P separated? I am currently taking physio by itself and it is a very tough course

Trinitro phenylnitramine commented on 13 Sep 2015

Wow, no wonder most of us in class are having a hard time. Those of us who never took bio are learning it as we go. I make up for my lack of bio with chem as i use dimensional analysis a lot in lab which is unfamiliar to my fellow classmates

professorfink commented on 13 Sep 2015

I recommend that students take Physiology AFTER Biology, Anatomy & Chemistry.

Trinitro phenylnitramine commented on 13 Sep 2015

i have taken Anatomy and Chemistry prior to taking Physiology. I would have taken Biology as prerequisite instead, bec the way Physio is being taught in my school is very Biology heavy material (cells and such). And it is only an intro undergrad course.

professorfink commented on 13 Sep 2015

+John Galt I would strongly urge you to take Anatomy BEFORE Physiology.  While ALL courses in the Health Sciences are demanding, most students find Physiology much more difficult than Anatomy.

It is wonderful lecture on the function of the brain and spinal cord, the problem is how obtain your lecture notes. As you did mentioned what like more is read notes rather than listening. My question is how do get your notes 

professorfink commented on 18 Jan 2014

 Currently, Lecture Outlines by Professor Fink can be purchased from the WLAC Bookstore at:  //onlinestore.wlac.edu/fink.asp We hope that down-loadable digital versions will be available from the same web-site in the next few weeks. The LINK is posted at the bottom of the Video DESCRIPTION above.

AnatomyGMC commented on 01 Jul 2013

Hi! Great question, I'll do my best to answer it for you! :) When a cell is at rest, the extracellular fluid is high in Na+ and the cytoplasm is high in K+ right? There are leak channels that are always open so Na+ flows down its concentration gradient into the cell, and K+ flows down its concentration gradient out of the cell. The Na+ K+ pump is there to reverse this process by pumping three Na+ out for every 2 K+ back in. That's what keeps the cell at resting membrane potential -70 mV.

AnatomyGMC commented on 01 Jul 2013

Once the action potential starts, depolarization begins first where the Na+ channels open and allow the Na+ to flood in at a much higher rate causing the cell's membrane potential to become more positive. (Picture a dam being removed allowing water to quickly flood). After depolarization and replolarization the Na+ K+ pump returns the intracellular and extracellular ion concentration to pre-stimulation levels. I hope this helps!

Daisy Aguilera commented on 25 Oct 2014

We need more professors like you. You're so easy to understand, unlike other professors who just go over it without explaining the details. I've been passing my quizzes and honestly there's no point of me going to class because I can't understand what my professor is trying to say. Just watching your videos makes me understand the whole concept. Thank you!

Di777 commented on 08 Jul 2013

This is wonderful! You explain it so clearly and simply that I got everything on the first time I watched it, not to mention that you talk slowly enough so everyone can understand clearly and don't repeat yourself unless you deem it important (which usually it is). Thank you so much! I'm gonna recommend it to my fellow students :)

Deborah Drover commented on 28 Feb 2015

These lectures have saved my life. If I had to try and gleam all the information from my textbook I would be lost. Having a lectures on puts it all in such wonderful perspective. Thank you so much, you are a fantastic instructor, I can't praise you enough. I love this subject because of you, you have helped me understand. 

msuptown commented on 12 Apr 2013

Hello Professor - I truly love the way you explain things in detail with warm tone - this could easily be a very boring lecture, but you somehow kept me at the edge of my seat the whole time. Your students are lucky to have you, and thank you for sharing your talent to those who is less fortunate lol.

msuptown commented on 12 Apr 2013

No - you're the one who is absolutely kind/generous. Too bad, your explanation is so good, I am left with no further questions! I admire you for taking your time to prepare your original slides/pictures and give unique analogies. You're my biology guardian goddess.

ronald garay commented on 24 Apr 2013

yes thank you ... so much .. i have great teachers in class but the way u explain things really helped me understand it .. and this gives me confidence to make a good grade on my final test.. 2 POINTS from an A .. WISH me luck... thanks again for taking the time

Mac Ouk commented on 06 Oct 2014

1000x THANKS for this video! seriously, you are a lifesaver. My professor flew through his lectures and I find myself more confused than ever after each class. Can't believe that I can actually understand the nervous system now. YOU ROCK!

lighthesun commented on 09 Nov 2013

you made a complicated chapter so easy to understand...why some university teachers make things over complicated?? I'm studying for my exam A&P and it was a life savor, clear, concise. Loved it Thanx a lot n keep posting please...

Carmz Haar commented on 15 Mar 2014

I wish you are my teacher. You are an excellent professor for this tough course. you made lectures easier and clearer for students like me to understand. I will continue listening to your videos until I finish this semester.

AnatomyGMC commented on 12 Apr 2013

Wow! That is an incredible comment! You are too kind! Thank you for taking the time! You are very generous! If there is anything at all you would like me to post to further help you please let me know! Best of luck to you!

Patie Marsh commented on 12 Aug 2013

I will like to say, thanks so much, You are a great professor and you have helped me very much with all your Anatomy and Physiology classes. Do you have any test that will help me test my self with all the classes?

Ellie Cam commented on 18 Apr 2013

Thank you so much for these videos. I have made tremendous progress in my classes due to the lectures you have given, very clear and understanding. So far I have an average of a B and satisfied. Thank you so much.

Jelle Damen commented on 23 Oct 2013

I was interested in learning more about the nervous system, coming from a completely different background (mechanical engineering) I must say your great explanation made everything a lot clearer to me. Many thanks.

Kyle Jones commented on 16 Nov 2014

My god you are a great instructor. I wish I had watched these after my tiresome lectures. You break them down so well even from the previous muscle chapter i just watched. Thank you so much for uploading these.

Bax Storm commented on 09 Jun 2013

Words can't explain how I feel! God bless u!!!!!! U make everything so clear! And the most amazing thing is tht u've got every chapter I need for A&P! I'm a first year pharmacty student. Thank u very much!

Natalie commented on 20 Jun 2013

Wow, what an OUTSTANDING lecture! You are the perfect combination of passion, personality, and performance. Such a flawless fusion of qualities is seldom found in one person. Thank you!

kkc11408 commented on 17 Sep 2013

Is this video relevant to a&p 1? Iʻm looking for a video on the autonomic system for a&p 2... Thanks, your videos are so helpful and you use the same graphics used in my textbook!

In lieu of my professor posting our nervous system lecture online, I came across yours... And I learned more from this than I did in the class I paid $800 for. Thank you.

gespilk commented on 04 Oct 2013

Excellent. Where can I find more about the evolution of the neural systems. Something that answers questions like: Why/How ganglia formed? What drove them to get bigger and form a spine? How different types of neurotransmitters (and neural cells) evolved? Where I can find more on the evolution of Inhibiting cells vs. stimulating cells? At what point in evolutionary time the inhibiting cells appear and how many are there? Why individual cells in a lab will fire a lot and grow until they connect?

Amy Wilbur commented on 18 Jan 2014

What a very good, basic idea of the nervous system. I know a basic, a very "big picture" of the nervous system and everything all sounded familiar to me. What a good review! Thank you.

ROBINHOODSARROW commented on 03 Sep 2011

@altforfit True, The "want to" was there at first. But, every time he attempted to return to work -- he'd have panic attacks. He literally fears having to go back -- a hazardous waste site where it is a certainty he will have more exposures. I can't even bring up the the idea of him returning -- not without him completely freaking out. He's threatens to "end it" his own way b4 ever returning. Now, he's manifesting cancers -- so I've backed off. And, thank you -- I do believe in miracles! : )

altforfit commented on 02 Sep 2011

@ROBINHOODSARROW without being a doctor i would adivde you to make sure your husband stays away from the neurotoxins: aspartame, momosodiumglutatmae, you'll find one of either in all light products. Also, deoderant is full of aluminum, flue shot full of mercury like some teeth with mercury fillings, plus generel polution, cremes/lotions, and just bathing water. Look into "detoxify or die" by sherry rogers is another advice. Eat healthy since toxins needs vitamins/minerals to leave the body!

C00lblkatheist commented on 20 Jul 2011

Great video. I am curious to know, though, does the overwhelming scientific community accept Stephen Porge's "Polyvagal Theory," which asserts instead of a dualistic autonomic nervous system, primates have a triune autonomic nervous system including reptilian unmyelinated vagus branch (parasympathetic) the sympathetic nervous system, along with a newly evolved myelinated neomammilian vagal branch (social engagement system) which controls the heart via sinoatrial node?

ROBINHOODSARROW commented on 20 Jul 2011

I'm not a med student -- but I found this lesson very helpful. My spouse suffered a prolonged chemical exposure and was diagnosed with toxic encephalopathy. He hasn't been diagnosed with autonomic neuropathy yet -- but his symptoms and blood tests seem to match that disease better. Would you say there is an overlap of these two diseases being that both originate in the brain?

altforfit commented on 02 Sep 2011

@ROBINHOODSARROW Toxins that you can not deal with from the liver and other detoxifying organs will get stored in fatty tissues and the brain is 60% fat, so you can see your husband needs a healthy liver and generel good healt = Eat raw foods, ecologic, drink water, get enough sleep, avoid stress and so on. Hope it helps.

Aaron Mullally commented on 21 Jul 2011

@ROBINHOODSARROW I honestly can't give you much of an answer on this because I don't know much about your spouse's case and I'm not a medical doctor. I can say, however, to remember there are higher centers do control the ANS. From what I do know some of the symptoms can overlap but these are two different conditions.

sentimental007 commented on 01 Jan 2012

At the TIMING of 12:53. The narrator mentions that Norepinephrine (NE) works on Alpha 1 & 2 and Beta 1 & 2. HOWEVER.. NE only works on Alpha 1 > Alpha 2 > Beta 1. Please make that correction as you are watching this video. In alteration, it is Epinephrine (Epi) that works on everything. Nonetheless, Great video.

altforfit commented on 03 Sep 2011

@ROBINHOODSARROW In spinal rehabilitation (which is my primary field) workers compensation cases predicts outcome, meaning, it worsens the prognoses, the patient takes on a sick role and it reinforces symptoms. We need a strong faith in God and in us getting better, we need to WANT to get better.

ROBINHOODSARROW commented on 03 Sep 2011

@altforfit Thanks, that's interesting information about the brain being 60% fat. My husband's seeing a wellness doctor who has been a tremendous help and support. The stress he's not doing so good with. We're fighting for Workers' Compensation -- against a self-insured employer.

Great information in this video, and very nice execution. However, you could probably shorten it up to make it more approachable. My mind tends to grasp more during more focused and shorter videos. But still, you rock!

Thank you for your posts. I have so much trouble understanding my professor I just really don't even go and just do independent studies. Your videos have helped me make complex concepts seem like common sense.

Abu Ibrahim Alhatimy commented on 29 Oct 2015

doesn't the skin sympathetic nervous system caused by Acetylcholine? then how does the it bing with alpha 1 receptor on skin? as we know acetylcholine only binds to nicotinic or muscrinic receptors ?? hmmmm i think there is something wrong there. Remember the Skin sympathetic response is the only exception that use Acetylcholine neurotransmitters. The acetylcholine released by sympathetic nervous system must bind to muscrinic receptors to cause dilation of sweat glands. anyone agree on this ?

chelsi soliva commented on 01 Feb 2015

excuse me sir. hehe. i thought insulin(beta) is the one that facilitates the conversion of glucose to glycogen and it decreases the blood sugar level. while the glucagon(alpha) facilitates the breakdown the glycogen to glucose, increases the blood sugar level. (confused :/)

Steve Nwaogwugwu commented on 04 Jan 2015

I was thinking the same too until I saw you post and confirmed that I was right. He meant to say sympathetic instead of parasympathetic. All the same, his lecture rocks! Make more sense now that I am listening to his lecture.
