The Central Nervous System The central nervous system is the control center of the body.

The Central Nervous System The central nervous system is the control center of the body.

Parts of the Central nervous System Brain – is the part of the central nervous system that controls most functions in the body. Spinal Cord – is the thick column of nervous tissue that links the brain to most of the nerves in the peripheral nervous system.

The 3 Main Regions of the brain Cerebrum – is the largest part of the brain that interprets input from the senses, controls movement and carries out complex mental processes such as learning and remembering. Cerebellum – second largest part of the brain that coordinates the actions of your muscles and helps you keep your balance. Brain stem – lies between the cerebellum and spinal cord and controls your body’s involuntary actions.

The Spinal Cord The Spinal Cord is the link between your brain and the peripheral nervous system.

FUNCTIONS OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM 1.Receives information about what is happening both inside and outside your body. 2.It directs the way in which the body responds to this information. 3. It helps maintain homeostasis.

Key Terms Stimulus – any change or signal in the environment that can make an organism react. Response – is what your body does in reaction to a stimulus. Neurons – nerve cells that carry information through your nervous system.
