SENSE- is the ability to perceive stimuli. SENSATION (PERCEPTION)- is the conscious awareness of stimuli received by sensory receptors. GENERAL SENSES- are those with receptors distributed over a large part of the body. SOMATIC SENSES- provides sensory information about the body and the environment. VISCERAL SENSES- are more specialized in structure and are localized to specific parts of the body such as pain and pressure. SPECIAL SENSES- are more specialized in structure such as smell

What is the job of the Circulatory System? The Circulatory System is responsible for transporting materials throughout the entire body. It transports nutrients‚ water‚ and oxygen to your billions of body cells and carries away wastes such as carbon dioxide that body cells produce. It is an amazing highway that travels through your entire body connecting all your body cells. Parts of the Circulatory System The circulatory System is divided into three major parts: 1.

IGCSE Biology Notes Refined by KmQ Unit 1 : Characteristics of living things Biology is the study of living organisms. For something to be alive it needs to perform all seven functions of living things.MRS GREN Movement‚ Respiration‚ Sensitivity‚ Growth‚ Reproduction‚ Excretion‚ Nutrition. 1. Movement Most organisms are able to move their whole body even plants can shift their stem towards the sunlight and their roots move towards healthy soil. 2. Respiration IT is the breakdown of food

The brachial plexus is a somatic nerve plexus formed by intercommunications among the ventral rami (roots) of the lower 4 cervical nerves (C5-C8) and the first thoracic nerve (T1). It lies partly in the neck and partly in the axilla. It is responsible for the motor innervation of all of the muscles of the upper extremity‚ with the exception of the trapezius and levator scapula. The brachial plexus supplies all of the cutaneous innervation of the upper limb‚ except for the area of the axilla (which

respiratory muscles- Regular exercise results in adaptations to the circulatory‚ respiratory and muscular systems in order to help them perform better under additional stress. Increase in oxygen diffusion rate- The respiratory muscles (Diaphragm/intercostals) increase in strength. This then results in larger respiratory volumes‚ which allows more Oxygen to be diffused into the blood flow (VO2 max) Advantages of Fartlek training: Pace can be adapted to allow time recovery so the performer can work
