The brain is made up of nerve cells (also called neurons). There are neurons both in the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system. The communication between neurons occurs with release of neurotransmitters (chemicals that affect the surface of neurons). The release of neurotransmitters occurs when an electrical impulse travels down the neuron and causes the neuron to "fire" off neurotransmitter. This electrical impulse is called an "action potential." The release of neurotransmitter can have one of two possible effects on the "receiving" neuron, depending on which neurotransmitter binds with which neuron. It can make the receiving neuron either more likely to fire (excitatory) or less likely to fire (inhibitory). The result of this activity in billions of neurons creates quite a symphony, including everything we call thought.

What carry instructions from the central nervous system to effector organs?
The peripheral nervous system carries impulses from the central nervous system to the effectors.
What is somatic nervous system?
The somatic nervous system transmits sensory messages to the central nervous system. The somatic nervous system is a sub group of the peripheral nervous system, it mainly controls voluntary muscles and sense organs.
What system in the body carries information from the glands and organs to the brain?
Nervous system
Information is conveyed from the same sense of organs to the central nervous system by?
Receptors
What organs are found in the nervous system?
Brain and spinal cord compose the central nervous system (CNS).All the nerves that innervate everything outside of your CNS is your peripheral nervous system (PNS).
What carry instructions from the central nervous system to effector organs?
The peripheral nervous system carries impulses from the central nervous system to the effectors.
What carries motor responses from the central nervous system to muscles glands and other organs?
brain stem
What nervous system carries brain and spinal cord signals to other organs?
It is the central nervous system
What is somatic nervous system?
The somatic nervous system transmits sensory messages to the central nervous system. The somatic nervous system is a sub group of the peripheral nervous system, it mainly controls voluntary muscles and sense organs.
What neuron carries impulses from receptors to the central nervous system?
Neurons that convey sensory information are called 'sensory neurons' or "afferent neurones"
What tissues makes up organs that sends messages?
Nervous tissue.
What is a motor neuron?
motor neuron is a type of neuron that found at the muscles, tissues, and organs.
What system in the carries information from the glands and organs to the brain?
Nervous system
What does central nervous system includes?
The central nervous system has two organs, the brain and the spinal cord.
What system in the body carries information from the glands and organs to the brain?
Nervous system
What system stimulates muscle to contract and interprets information from sensory organs?
The central nervous system.
What is nervous coordination?
The nervous system recives stimuly from the external environment through the sense organs and transmit their information through the central nervous system. The central nervous system analysis it and than sends signal to the stimulate responses by the specific organs.
