Nervous System

The nervous system has two main divisions: ▫central nervous system ▫peripheral nervous system

Central Nervous System The central nervous system consists of the brain and the spinal cord. It controls behavior.

The Brain

Peripheral Nervous System The peripheral nervous system includes the nerves which come from the spinal cord and the base of the brain to the different parts of the body.

Peripheral Nervous System The peripheral nervous system is the pathway to the brain for the five senses.

Peripheral Nervous System By sending messages to and from the brain, the nervous system keeps the numerous parts and organs of your body working together-helping you respond to the world around you.

Peripheral Nervous System The peripheral nervous system serves the internal organs and controls such activities as digestion, excretion, respiration, circulation, reproduction, and endocrine gland activity.

Neurons The individual nerve cell, or neuron, is the basic unit that carries out the work of the nervous system.

Synapses

Signal Transduction

Action Potential

Reflex Action

Neurons do not grow back! Brain cells cannot grow back once destroyed by injury, disease, drugs/alcohol, or birth defects. The damage is irreversible.
