What to Focus On

  • Control and coordination maintain harmony between different body parts
  • Two main systems: nervous system (electrical signals) and endocrine system (chemical signals)
  • Nervous system provides rapid responses, endocrine system provides slower, sustained responses

  • Made up of specialized cells called neurons
  • Transmits information through electrical signals (nerve impulses)
  • Central Nervous System (CNS): brain and spinal cord

  • Three main parts: dendrites, cell body, and axon
  • Dendrites receive impulses, axon transmits impulses
  • Neurilemma provides insulation for faster transmission

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The brain controls all reflex actions in the body

Hormones and nerve impulses work at the same speed

Neurons can regenerate completely like other body cells

Memory Tips

Structure of a neuron (dendrites, cell body, axon)

Three types of neurons

Reflex arc pathway

Parts of the brain (Cerebrum, Cerebellum, Medulla)
