Chapter 41.5, Problem 3C
Summary Introduction
To determine: The location where neural integration occurs in the vertebrates.
Introduction: The body parts interact with each other and to the environment with the help of the nervous system. The nervous system is a complex system that controls the actions of a whole body.
