  1. Week 9, Day One HW # 32-Read the Can You Feel The Difference lab; make a hypothesis. Warm up You smell a delicious aroma. You walk into the kitchen and see a bag of popcorn in the microwave. You hear some kernels still popping. Then you think to yourself, “Snack time!” Which body systems enabled you to smell, walk, see, hear, and think? How did each system play a part in your response?

  2. Warm up Response • --

  3. Homework Response/Check Completed Respiratory System notes.

  4. Goals for Today • Nervous System Notes • Nerve Cell Diagram

  5. If you are viewing this at home… By the end of this discussion, you should be able to answer: What are the functions of the nervous system? What is the structure of a neuron and what kinds of neurons are found in the body? How do nerve impulses travel from one neuron to another? What are the structures and functions of the central nervous system? What are the structures and functions of the peripheral nervous system? What is a reflex? What are the two ways in which the nervous system can be injured?

  6. The Nervous System

  7. The brain The spinal cord The nerves The senses Nervous System A system that controls all of the activities of the body. The nervous system is made of:

  8. The nervous system also allows you to react to a stimulus. Stimulus A stimulus is a change in the environment. Example: A hot stove Or… tripping over a rock

  9. Your reactions are automatic. Automatic Automatic means that you do not have to think about your reactions. Example: If a bug flies by your eye, you will blink.

  10. Brain An organ that controls your emotions, your thoughts, and every movement you make.

  11. Brain Has 3 parts: *cerebrum- for movement, senses, speech, thought **cerebellum- actions of muscles and maintain balance ***brain stem- involuntary actions (breathing/heart rate)

  12. Central Nervous System The Central Nervous System is made of the brain and the spinal cord. The Central Nervous System controls everything in the body.

  13. Nerves Sense organs Peripheral Nervous System The Peripheral Nervous System is made of the nerves and the sense organs. (voluntary & involuntary)

  14. Nerve Impulse Messages carried throughout the body by nerves.

  15. Anatomy of a Neuron • Cell body: functional portion • Dendrites: short extensions that receive signals • Axon: long extension that transmits impulses away (to synapse)

  16. Impulse Transfer • Synapse- junction where one neuron can transfer an impulse to another • Axon tips release chemicals that carry the impulse across the gap

  17. Peripheral Nervous System 2 parts: Somatic- voluntary (using a fork) Autonomic- involuntary (blood vessel diameter)

  18. Nerves Eye Skin Ear Tongue Peripheral Nervous System * The peripheral nervous system is made of the nerves and the sense organs.

  19. Sense Organs Sense organs carry messages about the environment to the central nervous system.

  20. controls Autonomic Nervous System * The peripheral nervous system also controls the body’s activities that you don’t think about. * Such as: your small intestine, your breathing, and your heartbeat.

  21. Reflex * An automatic reaction that happens without thinking about it. * A reflex happens quickly in less than a second.

  22. What is the function of each: -Cerebrum- largest part, control movement, senses, speech, abstract thought -Cerebellum- coordinates actions of muscles & balance -Brain Stem- involuntary actions (breathing & heart rate)
