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

Parasympathetic VS Sympathetic The Autonomic Nervous System regulates cardiovascular‚ respiratory‚ digestive and urinary functions. The ANS studies have changed medicine practices. Before‚ the thought of a myocardial infarction patient living past five years was unheard of. Now doctors have learned to manipulate the ANS system with drugs that help to control blood pressure. The Autonomic Nervous System is composed of two divisions‚ Sympathetic and the parasympathetic divisions. They are involved

Neurofibromatosis is a genetic disorder that ceases cell growth in the nervous system and it can cause tumors to grow on the nervous tissue. These tumors can occur anywhere in the nervous system‚ this includes the brain‚ nerves‚ the spinal cord‚ skin‚ and many more of the body’s systems. These tumors tend to be benign or in other words they are non-cancerous. The development of these benign tumors may cause skin and or bone abnormalities. These tumors‚ also known as neurofibromas‚ form on nerves

When you are diagnosed with a brain tumor‚ it is a scary life-changing event. The brain is one of the most important vital organs‚ and if found with a brain tumor‚ go to the doctor for immediate help. The brain and spine make up the central nervous system or CNS. Where each vital function is controlled. So if you have a tumor in your CNS‚ it can effect everything you do like: your thought process‚ how you talk‚ and even how you can walk. There are two types of brain tumors‚ primary and secondary

Human Sensory Systems Objectives · Describe how sensory receptors communicate to the central nervous system. · Describe receptors that detect temperature‚ pain‚ touch and pressure‚ muscle length and tension‚ and blood pressure. · Describe the nature of vision in terms of its stimulus on the function of rod and cone cells. Introduction The function of the brain is to convey messages to different parts of the body. Messages are conveyed from a nerve cell to another nerve cell‚ muscle cell

Thermogenesis is the process of heat production in organisms. It occurs mostly in warm-blooded animals‚ but a few species of thermogenic plants exist. One form of thermogenesis is called thermo-regulatory thermogenesis. This is involved with keeping the temperature of the human body regulated. The average body temperature is 98.7 degrees (F)‚ which is quite a bit higher than the ambient (surrounding) temperature in most cases. There are two types of thermo-regulatory thermogenesis: shivering and
