The nervous system is one system among several in the human body. In order to function, does the nervous system depend on other systems such as the muscular system or the respiratory system?
why does the nervous system play a vital role in the living organisms?
Your nervous system is organized into two broad anatomical divisions: the central nervous system (consisting of the brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Your PNS is further organized into two functional divisions. If you tap your knee, the signal to act is carried via your to the muscles in your knee. In contrast, the signals that pass via the are involuntary and act primarily to regulate your body's internal environment. This involuntary nerve system is further organized into three divisions. If you need a sudden burst of energy, your is activated to help you act quickly. In contrast, if you are relaxing and conserving energy, then it is your that is primarily in action. The third division is your which helps control the components of the digestive system.

- The nervous system helps all parts of the body communicate with each other. It is made up of several sub-divisions with each subdivision havingstructural and functional characteristics that distinguish it from the others. Complete the diagram to show all the missing sections and explain their functions and where relevant their relationships to each other.arrow_forwardWhat are the main differences between the sympathetic and parasympathetic branches of the autonomic nervous system?arrow_forwardThe autonomous nervous system regulates involuntary functions of the body and can be subdivided into the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous system. Both of these systems control the same group of body functions, but have opposite effects on the functions they regulate. The sympathetic nervous system prepares the body for intense physical activity like the fight-or-flight response. The parasympathetic nervous system has the opposite effect and relaxes the body and inhibits or slows many high energy functions. Which of the following involuntary effects in the body are brought about by the sympathetic nervous system during a fight-or- flight situation? i. Increased salivation ii. Increased digestion ii. Loss of bowel and bladder control iv. Body shivering Сrying Pupil dilation B. i, iv and v V. vi. A. i, ii and vi C. iii, iv and vi D. iii and varrow_forward

Choose a disorder of one or both of these systems and discuss a disorder of them. Many disorders involve both systems.arrow_forward
- We regularly make conscious decisions to make specific muscular movements. For example, when using the touch interface of your phone, you make a conscious effort to scroll up and down the screen using your finger. In contrast, there are many muscular movements that cannot be controlled voluntarily. For example, you cannot make your heart stop by thinking about it. Which of the following statements correctly identifies the parts of the nervous system that are involved in voluntary and involuntary actions, respectively? Select one: a. Motor neurons of the somatic nervous system and motor neurons of the autonomic nervous system b. Motor neurons of the autonomic nervous system and sensory neurons of the somatic nervous system c. Sensory neurons of the somatic nervous system and sensory neurons of the autonomic nervous system d.
