Chapter 12/13 Reflection

These chapters had a lot of information but I was able to follow along since there was a lot of diagrams. Familiarizing myself with the difference between gray and white matter was a challenge and where you can find the tracts. I am familiar with somatic and autonomic nervous systems, so I did not have to spend a lot of time on that. Learning about the glial cells found within the nervous system is a little challenging. I have been reviewing that section a lot. I particularly get confused with what cell produces cerebral spinal fluid. Lastly, chapter 12 talked about action potential and how neurons communicate. This sections I have to review because theres a lot of information and knowing what is released, when, and why. A section that I struggled with during chapter 13 is learning all of the nerves and what they innervate. I have been looking at a long of diagrams and also using flashcards to familiarize myself.
