Your body has miles of cable inside it Similar to wires in a robot. http://www.technovelgy.com/ct/Science-Fiction-News.asp?NewsNum=790

The nerves in the body are like wires In the robot. They carry around information. Different parts of the body are sent orders to carry out. http://announcements.engadget.com/category/robots/page/87/

The nerves have the following things in common with wires in a robot… Insulation Branched http://www.electronicplus.com/images/ products/5051-1000.jpg Long Thin http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2364/2060117634_ d833a337ee.jpg?v=0 http://www.global-b2b-network.com/b2b/87/18/365/304124/silicone_rubber_insulated_wire.html

Insulation is used to keep the message in one piece and to help the message travel quickly. www.allanyeo.co.uk/html/p_r_d_c.html

The wires are branched in the brain and in effectors so that the messages can reach different places at the same time. Insert appropriate picture here

The wires are long and thin so they can reach every part of the body. http://www.myinsulators.com/ddahle/poles/poles.html

Sensory Neurones transmit nerve impulses from sensory receptors all over the body to the central nervous system. Motor Neurones transmit nerve impulses from the central nervous system to effectors (muscles and glands) all over the body Relay neurones links used to relay messages from sensory neurone to motor neurone and make up the brain and spinal cord usually much smaller cells, with many connections.

Information from one neuron flows to another neuron across a synapse. http://www.neurevolution.net/wp-content/uploads/Synapse.JPG Information from one neuron flows to another neuron across a synapse. The synapse is a small gap separating neurons.
