What is the main function of the perpheral nervous system?
The main function of the peripheral nervous system is to connect the central nervous system to the limbs and organs. It helps coordinate body movements and receiving external stimuli. It is also the system that controls the "fight or flight" response.
Does the nervous system involves to stimuli?
Any internal or external change that brings about a response is called a stimulus. As a key homeostatic regulatory and coordinating system, the nervous system detects, interprets, and responds to changes in external and internal conditions.
What is internal stimuli and external stimuli?
Nervous System
What is the nervous system triggered to respond to?
The nervous system is triggered to respond to stimuli.
What are effectors of the nervous system?
The effectors of the nervous system are muscles and glands. They respond to nervous stimuli.
What systems works closely with the endocrine system to coordinate the body's functions?
The system that works closely is the nervous system
Briefly explain the function of the nervous system?
The nervous system's ultimate function is to interpret and respond to sensory signals from the environment.The nervous system consists of two main categories:1. Peripheral Nervous System (PNS): receives sensory stimuli, passes stimulus information to CNS in the form of an electrical action potential.2. Central Nervous System (CNS): consists of brain and spinal cord; interprets signals coming from sensory stimuli in the periphery and decides appropriate response to initiate- Afferent neurons transmit sensory signals from the PNS to the CNS- Efferent neurons transmit response signals to targets in the body to respond accordingly to initial sensory stimulus.
What part of the nervous system responds to stimuli?
The parts of the nervous system that respond to stimuli are called the sensory nervous system. This includes touch, pressure, hot and cold, sound, light, and taste.
Changes that activate the nervous system?
Stimuli
how process is governed by the autonomic nervous system?
By release of chemical neurotransmitters like epinephrine and norepinephrine, increasing response to tough external stimuli.
What are the effects of the outside factors on the nervous system?
You can get a nervous breakdown from stress.
Which part of the body responds to stimuli?
The nervous system.
