The Nervous
System
By: Ronald, Jesus, Robert, Anthony
and Vlad
Still functions…
• The brain controls how you eat, when you
sleep, and everything you do daily. The
spinal cord is located in the backbone. The
spinal cord sends messages from your
body to the brain and the brain sends
commands to the nervous system and
back to the body.
The system and It’s Functions

The nervous system is one of the
major systems in the human body.
It’s job is to control your feelings.
The nervous system is consisted of
the brain, the spinal cord and the
nerves.
The Parts and The Jobs
 The nervous system is made up of nervous tissues that
are, in turn, made up of many types of neutrons. There
are billions of neutrons connected throughout your
body.
 Your peripheral nervous system has two types of
neurons that are constantly at work.
 Neurons that send impulses from the central nervous
system to your limbs and organs are called efferent
neurons.
 Neurons that receive sensory information and transmit
to the central nervous system are called afferent
neurons.
The Diseases and Disorders

The nervous system can be damaged by
injury and disease. The most common
serious problem with the nervous system
is a stroke. A person may have a stroke if
the blood supply to part of the brain is cut
off. Then the nerve cells in that area die.
The person then may not be able to do the
things that are controlled by the damaged
area of the brain.
System Importance
 The Nervous System is important to the
body’s survival basically because without it
we wouldn’t have any feelings. The nervous
system is made up of the brain, the spinal
cord and the nerves. The nervous system is
your bodies control room. Every nerve
impulse is sent there or received there
before reaching any other part of the body.
Continue
 This happens because being like a control
room for the body the nervous system has
to think of the situation and respond to the
whole body it’s answer.
Extra Information
The nervous system is divided into 2 parts.
The central part of the nervous system is
the brain and the spinal cord. Your
peripheral nervous system is made up of
the network of neutrons that spans your
organs, muscles, the body. Network of
specialized tissues that controls actions
and reactions of the body and its
adjustment to the environment.

• The nervous system is the part of an
animals body that helps it adjust to
changes in its surroundings. Almost all
kinds of animals have some kind of
nervous system.
Resources

www.factmaster.com, this was a great
website for collecting information on all the
systems of the body.

www.bodyquest.com, okay site 
http://kidshealth.org, Teaches you about the
body and how to keep your systems
healthy 

Thank you for watching our presentation
on the Nervous System, we hope you
learned something about this system.
