So…..what is the main function of the nervous system? Regulate body systems and respond to the environment. This includes – Responding to stimuli (environment) – Maintaining homeostasis

Pictures of Nervous System

What is the structure of the Nervous System? 1.Neurons – smallest level & are found everywhere in your body 2.Spinal Cord 3.Brain

Activity Turn to the person next to you and share a situation where your nervous system would have to send a signal for you to do something. – Example: Touching a hot iron
