What to Focus On
- Movement is often associated with life and represents responses to environmental changes
- Living organisms use movement as an attempt to use environmental changes to their advantage
- Controlled movement requires recognition of events and appropriate responses
- Nervous tissue is made of neurons that conduct electrical impulses
- Receptors in sense organs detect different types of stimuli
- Neurons have dendrites, cell body, and axon with specific functions
- Reflex actions are involuntary, rapid responses to stimuli
- Reflex arcs provide direct connection between sensory and motor neurons
- Spinal cord processes reflex responses without involving the brain
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Reflex actions are controlled by the brain and involve conscious thinking
Hormones travel through the nervous system like electrical impulses
Plants move by bending their muscles or contracting tissues like animals
