| Blueprint ID | Learning Objectives | | 7146 | identify the axis of orientation (rostral-caudal, dorsal-ventral, anterior-posterior, superior-inferior) and planes of orientation through the human body (sagittal, coronal, horizontal) | | 7147 | distinguish the central nervous system (CNS) from the peripheral nervous system (PNS). | | 7148 | describe the major divisions of the CNS and their functions. (lobes of the brain and functional units, i.e. cortex, thalamus, etc.) | | 7149 | explain how the mature nervous system develops from embryonic stages. | | 7150 | describe the basic units of the nervous system – neurons, glial cells and their respective functions. | | 7151 | identify the protective barriers of the brain – meninges, CSF, and blood brain barrier. | | 7152 | describe the ventricular system. | | |
