Human Nervous System
Shown at Left. This relief model is half life-size and shows a
schematic representation of the central and peripheral nervous system.
An excellent model to study the structure of the human nervous system.
Mounted on baseboard. Psychology of Nerves.
Shown at right. 5 magnetic models on illustrated metal board.
Displaying the basic structure of the human nervous system. Each of
the five sections shows a plastic, colored relief displaying the basic
structure of the human nervous. All sections can magnetically attach
to the illustrated base which depicts the neural components in vivid
colors. The five component reliefs are: Neuron Cell Body, Myelin
sheaths of the CNS; Schwann Cells of the PNS; Motor End Plate; and
Synapse. 58 x 51 x 3cm
Motor Neuron Diorama
Special Senses Model
Motor Neuron Diorama
Magnified more than 2500 time and fully three dimensional, a neuron model
is depicted in its natural setting. With the membranous envelope cut away,
the cytological ultrastructure,. organelles and inclusions within the cell
body are depicted in contrasting colors. A section of the axon lifts
off to expose the enveloping myelin sheath and neurolemma, as well as the
Schwann cell that formed them. Dendrites of the neuron extend into
the background, and synaptic vesicles carrying neurotransmitters can be
seen via a cutaway view. 54 features are identified in the an
illustrated key. Mounted on a hardwood base. Overall dimension
17x18x11 inches. Special Senses Model
A unique model specifically designed to help understanding of the five
special senses - sight, smell, taste, hearing, and balance - with their
related nerves. A life-size skull with removable eyes and sectioned
tongue provide the basis for everything else. Parts of the skull are
sectioned to ensure that every important nerve is shown and the trigeminal
nerve is flexible to allow exposure of the underlying petrosal nerve.
Component bones are identified. The model comes with an 18 minute
lecture on audio cassette. 19x155 x15cm.
