Homework: study for Unit Test Thursday. Today’s E.Q.: How does the Nervous System help us maintain homeostasis? Work Session: Watch Nervous Systems Video Go over Guided Reading 25.1 Closing: Nervous System Review Questions in cooperative learning groups Homework: study for Unit Test Thursday.

Closing: What are the steps of sending signals to and from your brain using your nerves? The Central Nervous System (CNS) responds to messages coming from the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) from our nerves. Specifically, Neurons receive information from Dendrites. The Axons then carry the information or impulses away to the Nerves, who carry them to the spinal cord and up to the brain.

Homework 25.1: Divisions of the Nervous System Central Nervous System Spinal Cord Somatic Ns Cerebellum Cerebrum

7. The PNS is a network of nerves branching out from the CNS 7. The PNS is a network of nerves branching out from the CNS. The PNS connects the CNS to the rest of the body. 8. The SNS carries nerve impulses that control voluntary actions. 9. The ANS carries nerve impulses that control involuntary actions. 10. G 12. F 14. E 16. B 11. D 13. C 15. A

Homework 25.1: How the Nervous System Works Functions are receiving info. about the external environment, responding to info., and maintaining homeostasis. (Ex: smell fresh baked cookies and your body receives info, you respond eating a cookie, you maintain homeostasis by providing your body with nutrients. Sensory Neurons: Pick up info from environment. Interneurons: Carry impulses from one neuron to another neuron. Motor Neurons: Transmit nerve impulses to activate muscles.

Guided Reading 25.1 EQ: It controls all actions and reactions of the body. 1. Gathers and interprets info. 2. Responds to info. as needed. 1. Neuron: Nerve cell that is specialized and conduct electrical impulses. 2. Axon: Transmits info from spinal cord to muscle fibers. 3. Dendrite: Short, branched extensions of the cell.

Guided Reading 25.1--Continued 1. Central Nervous System (CNS): Made up of your brain and spinal cord, it processes and responds to all messages. 2. Peripheral Nervous System (PNS): Made of all other parts of the Nervous System, it uses nerves to carry info. between your body and your CNS.

Guided Reading 25.1—Continued

Guided Reading 25.1--Continued 1. Somatic Nervous System: (SNS) Considered conscious control, neurons that stimulate skeletal muscles like writing, talking, smiling, or jumping. (Voluntary actions) 2. Automatic Nervous System: (ANS) Considered automatic control, like digestion, heart rate.(Involuntary actions)

Guided Reading 25.1--Continued We react to stimulus by the Central Nervous System (CNS) responding to messages coming from the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) from our nerves. Specifically, Neurons receive information from Dendrites. The Axons then carry the information or impulses away to the Nerves, who carry them to the spinal cord and up to the brain.
