1 Help to coordinate all parts of our body. It relays information back and forth from the brain to different parts of the body.
2 Our nervous system is made up of CNS and PNS
3 Consists of the brain and the spinal cord. It is connected to the whole body by the peripheral nervous system.
4 Consists of the cranial nerves from the brain and the spinal nerves from the spinal cord.
5 Such as our eves, ears, skin, tongue and nose have receptors which detect stimuli or changes in the environment.
6 Our sensory organs produce electrical messages called
7 Our nervous system il like a
8 Three parts - the forebrain, midbrain and hindbrain.
9 The large part of the brain. It consists of the cerebrum thalamus and hypothalamus.
10 Connects the hindbrain and the forebrain. It acts as the main coordinator for all messages going in and out of the brain to
the spinal cord.
11 Composed of the pons, medulla oblongata and cerebellum.
12 The hindbrain and midbrain are often known as
13 The extension of the brainstem. It is enclosed within the bones of the spinal column. Along it, many nerves branch out to the whole
body, making the peripheral nervous system.
14 The function of the spinal cord is to relay impulses between the brain and the peripheral nervous system.
15 The PNS is made up of ……………. pairs of cranial nerves from the brain and …………. pairs of spinal nerves from the spinal cord.
16 The PNS is made up of two subdivisions …………A………. And ………B………
- …………………. regulates gland and organ function in our functions in our body which we are not aware of. this includes controlling
17 the heartbeat, breathing digestion and gland functions. for examples, the size of our pupils increase automatically when we walk
into a dark room an and our salivary glands release saliva when we eat. these actions are known as involuntary actions.
- …………………. controls the skeletal muscles, which help us to move action that we are aware of such as walking and talking
