Transcript
The Nervous System Functions of the Nervous System 1) Receives Information 2) Responds to Information The Nervous System • The control center for the entire body. • Made up of brain, spinal cord, and neurons. Brain • The main organ of the nervous system; it controls everything your body does. Spinal Cord • A group of neurons along the spine that carries information from the brain to the rest of the body. Neurons • Cells that carry messages back and forth from the brain. Nerves • Groups of neurons. Autonomic • When your nervous system works automatically, like when your heart beats. Somatic • When you tell your body what to do (voluntary), like petting a cat. Reflex • When your body reacts without the help of your brain. Central Nervous System • The Brain and Spinal Cord Peripheral Nervous System • Nerves
