The Human Body Human beings are the most complex organisms on this planet. The human body is a single structure, but it is made up of billions of smaller structures of four major kinds: 1. Cells 2. Tissues 3. Organs 4. Systems Copyright © Notice: The materials are copyrighted © and trademarked ™ as the property of The Curriculum Center for Family and Consumer Sciences, Texas Tech University.

Systems Systems are the most complex of the component units of the human body. A system is an organization of varying numbers and kinds of organs so arranged that together they can perform complex functions for the body. Ten major systems compose the human body: 1.Skeletal 2.Muscular 3.Nervous 4.Endocrine 5.Cardiovascular 6.Lymphatic 7.Respiratory 8.Digestive 9.Urinary 10.Reproductive Copyright © Notice: The materials are copyrighted © and trademarked ™ as the property of The Curriculum Center for Family and Consumer Sciences, Texas Tech University.

Nervous System The nervous system is the major controlling, regulatory, and communicating system in the body. It is the center of all mental activity including thought, learning, and memory. Together with the endocrine system, the nervous system is responsible for regulating and maintaining homeostasis (remaining stable). Through its receptors, the nervous system keeps us in touch with our environment, both external and internal.

Nervous System Like other systems in the body, the nervous system is composed of organs, principally the brain spinal cord nerves ganglia These, in turn, consist of various tissues, including nerve, blood, and connective tissue. Together these carry out the complex activities of the nervous system.

Organization of the Nervous System Although terminology seems to indicate otherwise, there is really only one nervous system in the body. Although each subdivision of the system is also called a "nervous system," all of these smaller systems belong to the single, highly integrated nervous system. Each subdivision has structural and functional characteristics that distinguish it from the others. The nervous system as a whole is divided into two subdivisions: the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS).

Central Nervous System The brain and spinal cord are the organs of the central nervous system. Copyright © Notice: The materials are copyrighted © and trademarked ™ as the property of The Curriculum Center for Family and Consumer Sciences, Texas Tech University.

Peripheral Nervous System The organs of the peripheral nervous system are the nerves and ganglia. Nerves are bundles of nerve fibers, much like muscles are bundles of muscle fibers. Ganglia are collections, or small knots, of nerve cell bodies outside the CNS.

Nerve Tissue Although the nervous system is very complex, there are only two main types of cells in nerve tissue. The actual nerve cell is the neuron. It is the "conducting" cell that transmits impulses and the structural unit of the nervous system. The other type of cell is neuroglia, or glial, cell. The word "neuroglia" means "nerve glue." These cells are nonconductive and provide a support system for the neurons. They are a special type of "connective tissue" for the nervous system.

Neurons Neurons, or nerve cells, carry out the functions of the nervous system by conducting nerve impulses. Each neuron has three basic parts: cell body (soma), one or more dendrites, and a single axon.
