Nervous systems consists of the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system (cranial and spinal nerves) Brain is divided into 3 major areas 1. Cerebrum Pairs of lobes 2. Brain stem 3. Cerebellum Four lobes are: Frontal-largest lobe‚ concentration‚ abstract thought‚ information storage‚ memory and motor function‚ Broca’s area (motor control of speech)‚ affect‚ judgement‚ personality and inhibitions Parietal- sensory lobe‚ analyzes sensory information

The Nervous System The nervous system is the most complex part of the body‚ as they govern our thoughts‚ feelings‚ and bodily functions. It is an important factor in science because it can lead to new discoveries for cures or diseases. The studies of the nervous system helped lower death rates from heart disease‚ stroke‚ accidents‚ etc. The nervous system is a network of neurons (nerve cells) that that sends information to the brain to be analyzed. Neurons live both in and outside the central nervous

Nervous System Review Sheet 1. List three functions of the nervous system and give a specific example of each. • Reception of stimuli from environment (internal or external) and relay of info to CNS (Sensory division of PNS) – e.g. Receptors in your ear send a signal to the brain when the bell rings. • Integration of stimuli to decide on a response (CNS) – e.g. Your brain receives the signal that the bell is ringing‚ along with signals from your eyes that tell you it is time for class

NERVOUS SYSTEM The human body’s activities are regulated by two systems – the nervous system and the endocrine system. Although both systems control body functions‚ their methods differ. The nervous system is the body’s information gatherer‚ storage center and control system. Its primary function is to collect information about the external conditions in relation to the body’s external state‚ to analyze this information‚ and to initiate appropriate responses to satisfy certain needs; the most

Overview of Autonomic Computing The concept of autonomic system is introduced in 2001by Dr. Paul Horn (Cybenko). This concept is a way to address the unsustainable growth in administration costs for model software‚ computing and networking system. There are some paradigm that this concept is introduces such as self-aware‚ self-repairing and self-optimizing application software‚ operating system and network infrastructure. Autonomic computing system has a sense of self-awareness which prevent IT

Nervous System Functions of the Nervous System 1. Detect changes and feel sensations 2. Initiate responses to changes 3. Organize and store information Divisions 1. Central Nervous System – brain and spinal cord 2. Peripheral Nervous System – cranial nerves and spinal nerves (relays info to/from the CNS) - Autonomic Nervous System Nerve Tissue – neurons (nerve fibers) and specialized cells (Schwann‚ neuroglia) 1. Neuron cell body contains the nucleus; cell bodies are in the CNS or trunk;

Biology 3201 1. Unit 1- Maintaining Dynamic Equilibrium II Ch. 12 – The Nervous System (pp. 390-419) 12.1 – Structure of the Nervous System nervous system: a high-speed communication system which delivers information to and from the brain and spinal cord and all over the body. In any nervous system‚ there are 4 main components: (1) sensors: gather information from the external environment (sense organs) (2) conductors: carry information from sensors to modulators or from modulators to effectors (nerves)

1. Differentiate between the somatic nervous system and the ANS. Somatic nervous system includes all of the neural pathways (neurons) that result in voluntary actions‚ basically anything that you can tell your brain to do like move your arm or stick out your tongue. The autonomic nervous system includes all of the neural pathways that result in involuntary actions‚ like your brain telling your eyes to blink or your intestines to contract‚ basically anything that you cannot control. 2. Describe

-We have 2 parts in our nervous system: The central nervous system (CNS) is the nerves in our brain and spinal chord. The peripheral nervous system (PNS) is a network of nerve cells in the rest of our body. -Our nervous system detects stimuli and allows us to react to them. -Stimulus: a change‚ action or occurrence in the environment that can cause an organism to respond. Eg. Light‚ noise‚ pressure… How do we detect stimuli? -We have sensory organs that detect particular stimuli eg. Skin What
