brain has many jobs. It controls our spinal cord‚ our central nervous system and our nervous system. The spinal cord carries messages to the brain and also to the nerve cells that carry messages from the brain. Your body senses everything. Like something smashing your toe. You react to it. It all sends itself to the brain and it reacts. The cerebrum‚ controls thinking. The nerve cells carry information from all central nervous system. Like certain areas‚ such as the 5 senses. Sensory receptors

Phoenix Material Appendix B Structures of the Nervous System This activity will increase your understanding of the different structures of the nervous system and brain. During the Web activity‚ you will view a variety of structures of the brain and nervous system and label each with the appropriate term. You will use this document to write a description for the terms you used in the activity. [pic] As you conduct the Structures of the Nervous System activity‚ follow along with this Word document

synthesis‚ outflow and major effects of each. The two branches of the Autonomic Nervous System are the sympathetic division and the parasympathetic division. The main process of the sympathetic division is to stimulate the fight-or-flight response in the body‚ which means it is in charge of stimulates actions. In the sympathetic system‚ epinephrine and norepinephrine are the main neurotransmitter. In the sympathetic system‚ there are two neurons involved in transmission and they are the pre-ganglion

1. Describe the general structure and function of the nervous system. The Nervous System is a "network" which delivers information and monitors the processes taking place in our bodies at all times. The nervous system in all its aspects allows us to function as a single controlled and coordinated unit. The basic nerve cell nerve cell is a neuron; a chain of neurons is actually a "communication cable "inside our bodies. Neuron structure is basically the cell nucleus‚ the dendrites which receive information

10/21/14 Nervous system: one of the eleven major body organ systems in animals; coordinates and controls actions of internal organs and body systems; receives and processes sensory information from external environment; coordinated short-term reactions to these stimuli. Cell body: the part that contains the nucleus and most of the cytoplasm and the organelles. Axon: sends messages away from the cell body to other neurons. Dendrite: short‚ highly branched fibers that carry signals toward the cell
