signals synapse with interneurons‚ which in turn transmit impulses to motor neurons and into the effector organs (Ocampo and Reyes). An organism can response to a certain stimuli even if its brain is damaged or slightly destroyed through the spinal cord reflex. This shows that even if the toad( Bufo marinus)was decerebrated (only the brain was destroyed or damaged )‚ it can withdraw its limbs as the effect of acetic acid ‚ maintain its proper posture ‚ croak and swim because the spinal cord is still intact

``DIFINITION The muscular system is an organ system consisting of skeletal‚ smooth and cardiac muscles. It permits movement of the body‚ maintains posture‚ and circulates blood throughout the body Muscles provide strength‚ balance‚ movement and heat for the body to keep warm There are three distinct types of muscles: skeletal muscles‚ cardiac or heart muscles‚ and smooth (non-striated) muscles Skeletal muscle is a form of striated muscle tissue existing throughout the human body‚ and which

CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM The Brain -recap * The brain receives signals from inside and outside the body. * It keeps the basic‚ body functions such as heart beat rate‚ breathing rate and temperature control ticking over‚ without us having to think about it. * It also allows us to decide to do things like running and walking and many more complex tasks. It is where our personalities and moods and emotions come from. * The brain of a human being makes up about one-fiftieth of

Spinal nerve(twelve pairs) which are in the spinal cord. 2. Define the terms reflex and spinal reflex and identify the components of a reflex arc. A reflex is an automatic response to a stimulus produced by a reflex arc. It occurs without conscious thought. Reflexes are homeostatic. A spinal reflex is any reflex action mediated through the center of the spinal cord. A reflex arc is the nerve pathway involved in a reflex action including at its simplest a sensory nerve and a motor nerve with a synapse
