2. Functions of the Nervous System Master control and communication system of the body Master control and communication system of the body Uses electrical signals to communicate Uses electrical signals to communicate 2 subdivisions: 2 subdivisions: Central Nervous System (CNS)- brain & spinal cord Central Nervous System (CNS)- brain & spinal cord Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)- nerves Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)- nerves

4. Functions of the Nervous System Sensory receptor senses stimuli ---- sends message to integration center ---- motor output signals a response Sensory receptor senses stimuli ---- sends message to integration center ---- motor output signals a response

5. Knee Jerk Reflex Reflex- rapid, automatic response Reflex- rapid, automatic response

The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid, aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amzanig huh? And I awlyas tghuhot slpeling was ipmorant! O lny srmat poelpe can raed tihs. cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg.
