Synapses and Reflex Action

Synapse Neurons are not continuous Synapse is “The junction across which a nerve impulse passes from an axon terminal to a neuron, muscle cell or gland” Two types of Synapses: o Excitatory o Inhibitory

Reflex Action

In Groups of 3. 2 people face each other, looking at each other The third person stands off to the side. Anytime from 1 Sec till 10 Seconds the third person will clap Two people record what the other does.

What is a Reflex action??

Reflex actions “An action that is performed without conscious thought as a response to a stimulus” The signals from the receptors do not travel to the brain, instead they travel through what we call a Reflex Arc. Spinal reflexes or Brain Reflexes Stimulus – receptor – sensory neuron – association neuron – motor neuron – Effector - Response

Try These?? Draw one reflex arc for your body’s response to touching a hot object. Draw one reflex arc for your body’s response to standing on something sharp. Draw one reflex arc showing your body’s response to a loud noise.

Stimulus Response Model.

How does our body react to normal stimulus?? In a reflex: o Stimulus – Receptor – Messenger – Association neuron – Messenger – Effector - Response In a normal response: o Stimulus – Receptor – Messenger - Coordinating system - Messenger – Effector - Response

Try These?? Hypothalamus (links our nervous and endocrine systems): o Control Metabolic Activities o Water Balance o Sugar Metabolism o Body Temperature o Hormone Secretion Draw a stimulus response model for how the body would handle a change in temperature? Draw a stimulus response model for how the body may respond to a drop in water concentration? Draw a stimulus response model for how the body may respond to a drop in sugar levels?
