========================

(a) The nervous system includes the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system (cranial nerves and spinal  The nervous system is involved in receiving information about the environment around us (sensation) and generating responses to that information (motor responses). Colm Treacy. Sends information to the muscles, glands, and organs so they can respond appropriately – Motor Function. The nervous system can be divided into regions that are responsible for sensation (sensory functions) and for the response (motor functions) Neurons, or nerve cell, are the main structural and functional units of the nervous system. The  Nerve cells (or neurons) are the essential communicating elements in the nervous system, signalling to each other and to the muscle and gland cells. The Brain and Spinal Cord are Nervous System Functions of the Nervous System. Neurons also  Cells of the CNS and How They Communicate. It controls and coordinates all essential functions of the Nervous system Overview of the entire nervous system The nervous system has three main functions: sensory input, integration of data and motor output. Its  One word summa-rizes the function of the nervous system: “protection.” The central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) monitors and controls the entire body by its The nervous system is the most complex body system!! It is so vast and complex that, estimate is that all the individual from one body, joined end to reach around the world two and times. FIGURE Nervous system. The neurone (or nerve cell) is the most important compo-nent of the nervous system. Processes the information in the brain and spine – Integration Function. The nervous system is composed of excitable nerve cells (neurons) and The nervous system is involved in receiving information about the environment around us (sensation) and generating responses to that information (motor responses). Constantly alive with electricity, the. Sensory input is when the body gathers information or data, by way of neurons, glia and synapses. Every neuron consists of a body (soma) and a number of processes (neurites). system is the body’s prime communication coordination network. Transmits information to the processing areas of the brain and spine. The nerve cell body contains the cellular organelles and is where neural impulses (action potentials) are generated INTRODUCTION.
