Brain & Senses What does the brain do… unit 1.7 END OF UNIT TEST NEXT WEEK.d END OF UNIT TEST NEXT WEEK.d Brain & Senses What does the brain do… unit 1.7 L.O: To learn about the functions of the brain and do the different activities connected with the brain senses.

Quick revision of last week. Answer the following quiz. Write the answers in your Science books. Just under the L.O. You only need to write the correct letter (i.e. A, B, C, or D) There are 10 questions in total. (30 seconds per question)

1-What is the digestive system?  The body's breathing system  The body's system of nerves  The body's food-processing system  The body's blood-transporting system

2-Where does food pass through between the mouth and the stomach?  The gullet  The rectum  The small intestine  The large intestine

The gullet The mouth The small intestine The large intestine 3-Where does the partly-digested food (in liquid form) go after it leaves the stomach?  The gullet  The mouth  The small intestine  The large intestine

4-Which organ is used to filter the blood? Heart Lungs Stomach Kidneys

5- The process of breaking down food into smaller particles is called… Ingestion Digestion Contraction Breathing

6-The kidneys excrete a liquid waste. What is it called? Acid Saliva Blood Urine

7- The process of removing of waste products form the body is called.. Contraction Digestion Respiration Excretion

8-The process of filtering the blood using a machine is known as.. Dialysis Evaporation Distillation Analysis

9- Which of the following is NOT a function of the blood? Transport Oxygen Transport food Transport water Transport Urine

10- Which of the following organs is NOT part of the digestive system? The mouth The lungs The intestines gullet

Swap your books (peer assessment) Mark with a different colour please (black or Blue) Make nice neat ticks

ANSWERS C A D B

Your brain is the most complex part of your body (according to the brain..!), it performs a large number of amazing calculations every second, taking in information from the outside world in the form of senses and allowing you to quickly respond to various situations.

Fun facts: The word ‘brain’ originated from the ancient Egyptians. Early philosophers such as Socrates and Aristotle wrote and made theories regarding the human brain although Aristotle also believed that the heart played a crucial role in human intelligence. Your brain is 75% water. The brain feels no pain (it has no pain receptors at all) The human brain interprets the world around us in many different ways. These processes are researched in the study of neuroscience.

What does the brain do? The brain does all your learning and thinking. It also controls all your senses. The brain is connected to all parts of the body by nerves. Nerves are like electrical wires that carry signals to and from the brain to all parts of the body. The Brain and the body work together to form the nervous system.

What if the brain gets damaged? If the brain gets damaged it is a serious because the brain controls everything we do. The brain has a limited ability to repair itself. It is very difficult to recover from a serious brain injury. Some things that affect the brain are germs that cause infection, and unusual cancerous growths called tumours* *pg 19 in the book.

Sight Activity: Another way that our brains make assumptions is through optical illusions. Our brain tries to fill in the gaps, especially as we have been taught to use specific shapes and angles to tell us about size. Your brain is always looking for blank spaces and filling them with information. Our brains are always trying to recognise things in our environment and create meaning out of them

Any volunteers. Hands up Any volunteers? Hands up.. Try saying the colour in which each word is written.

These balls are exactly the same size.

Are the horizontal lines straight or crooked?

Watch how brain fills in the gap..

Which way is the train going Which way is the train going? Can you change the direction with your mind?

Which way is the cat spinning?

Taste Activity: We’re not going to actually eat anything, unfortunately. Could you, however, list the colours your brain associates with the following tastes… Sweet Sour Salty Bitter Results on next slide….

This is the result from a sample of 51 random people. Did you pick the most popular colour for each taste?

Memory Activity: On the next slide there is going to the a bunch of items. Try to remember as many as you can in 1 minute. You are not allowed to hold a pen or a pencil in your hand for this exercise. Only once the minute is up are you allowed to write the items you remember down.

Remember test next week (all of unit 1) Classwork Do questions on pg 19. If and once finished. Go to end of unit questions and do those too (those can be finished for homework if not finished in class). Remember test next week (all of unit 1)
