NERVOUS SYSTEM Coordinates all activities in the body by transmitting messages back and forth to every cell of the body through _________________.
Central Nervous System • _______________ and ______________ • Receives messages from the PNS (__________________________________________________________________) and sends a response or reaction. • Tells the body how to ______________________________________
_________________ • About 18 +/- inches • Sends messages from __________________________ to ________________________ and visa versa.
Brain • _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ • Allows you to think, reason, coordinate, learn, remember, perform all bodily functions whether voluntary or involuntary
Brain Parts • ______________ • _______________ • _______________
Cerebrum • LARGEST, most complex part of brain • Controls __________________________________________________________________________ • ______________side controls the left side of the body • ______________ side controls the right side of the body
Cerebrum Lobes • ________________ Lobe • _____________ Lobe • _____________ Lobe • ____________________ Lobe
Frontal Lobe • Voluntary ______________ • Use of _________________ • _____________ • _____________
Parietal Lobe • Sensory Information • _____________ • _____________ • _____________ • _____________ • _____________—where your body is and what it is doing
Occipital Lobe • __________________
Temporal Lobe • _________________ • _________________ • _________________ • _________________ • _________________
___________________________ • Coordinates movement of the skeletal muscles • Posture • Balance
Brain Stem • 3-inch stalk of nerve cells and fibers that connect the __________________________________________________________________________ • The “Gateway” from the brain to the body and the body to the brain
Brain Stem Parts • _______________________ • ____________________ • ____________________ • Thalamus • Hypothalamus
Medulla Oblongata • The lowest portion of the brain stem • Regulates _____________________ rate • Regulates _____________________ rate • Regulates hearing, talking, and swallowing • Regulates reflexes such as: • ______________________ • ______________________ • ______________________
Pons • Sits just above the M.O. • Connects nerve impulses to other parts of the ______________________ • Helps breathing • Controls muscles of the ________________________________
Midbrain • Highest portion of the brain stem • Involved in controlling ________________ movement and _______________ size
_______________________ • Relay center for incoming messages Kind of like the Pony Express, :~)
Hypothalamus • Controls various body processes • _________________ • __________________ • __________________ • Through the __________________gland it controls metabolism, sexual development, and emotion
Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) • Nerves outside of the ______________________________________ • Sends info from inside and outside of your body to the CNS for the brain to respond to
PNS Parts • A__________________ Nervous System • ____________________ Nervous System
Autonomic Nervous System • Controls Involuntary functions • _______________________—Reflex—”Fight or Flight” • _______________________—opposes actions of the sympathetic nervous system by slowing bodily functions during rest
Somatic Nervous System • Relays messages from the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and skin to the CNS which sends a response to the _______________________ muscles to move or react to a situation
Neurons • Nerve cells • Cell body -__________________________________________________________________________________—nucleus • _______________—branched structures that extend from the cell body. They receive info from other neurons or sensory receptors and transmit impulses toward the cell body • _______________—transmit messages away from the cell body and toward other neurons, cells, or glands
