Presentation transcript:

How and why do organisms respond to changes in their environment? Can you list what is required for a coordinated response? What makes up the CNS? Can you explain that receptors are used to generate impulses in neurones, resulting in a rapid response? What is a reflex arc?

Receptor cells are special cells adapted to detect stimuli. They are found in our sense organs. Light Chemical Pressure/heat Movement of sound waves

There are two parts: – The Central Nervous System (CNS) which consists of the brain and spinal cord. – The Peripheral Nervous System which is all the nerves that take information from our sense organs into the CNS and from the CNS out to effectors (muscles or glands).

Stimuli are picked up by sensory receptors and passed into the neurone.

This generates an impulse which travels along the neurone.

Stimuli are picked up by sensory receptors and passed into the neurone. This generates an impulse which travels along the neurone.

Stimuli are picked up by sensory receptors and passed into the neurone. This is then passed to the spinal cord or the brain to interpret the initial stimuli.

The neurone is surrounded by cells made of a substance called myelin. This insulates the neurone. Myelin sheath

The dendron carries the impulse up to the cell body, it then becomes the axon. The cell body contains the nucleus and all the other components that a cell needs to function. Cell body Axon Dendron

Cell body Axon Myelin sheath Dendron Junction with sensory receptor Junction with CNS

A message is sent out from the brain down the dendrites. The impulse travels down the axon. Cell body Dendron Axon Myelin sheath Dendrites Muscle

The impulse arrives at a muscle (effector) causing it to contract. Cell body Dendron Axon Myelin sheath Dendrites Muscle

A reflex is a rapid, automatic response to a stimulus. The action often protects the body. The nerve pathway of a reflex is called the reflex arc.

A reflex is an example of an automatic coordinated response. In a voluntary response the brain would be the coordinator not the spinal cord.
