Slide 1 - Diapositive

Brain and Senses
Lesson 1: Neurons and the brain





Chapter 8: Kerboodle:  'Control and coordination' 
-Page 108 t/m 111


Slide 2 - Diapositive

How do you detect and respond to changes? 
  • Nervous system: electrical messages
  • Hormonal system: chemical messages


Slide 3 - Diapositive

Getting a reaction
-Stimuli (a change that can be detected)

-Receptors (detect changes)

-Effectors (bring about a response)

Slide 4 - Diapositive

An example 
Throwing a pen towards someone 



  • Stimuli --> the pen coming towards you 
  • Receptors --> retina of your eye 'seeing' the pen 
  • Effectors --> muscles in your arm to catch the pen

Slide 5 - Diapositive

The Nervous system
The nervous system controls your muscles 
-walk / write / exercise 
-swallowing / blinking / breathing

-Central nervous system vs. 
-Peripheral nervous system


Slide 6 - Diapositive

The central nervous system (CNS)

Slide 7 - Diapositive

Nerve cells / neurons 
  • Sense organs (receptors) send messages to the CNS
via Sensory neurons

  • Muscles and glands (effectors) CNS send messages telling them wat to do 
via Motor neurons

Slide 8 - Diapositive

Slide 9 - Diapositive

The message
-Nerve impulses (electrical signals)
-Via the axon of the nerve cell
-Fatty sheat around axons make the impuls travel faster


-Multiple slerosis (MS) the fatty sheat breaks down they lose their use of the muscles
