Science 3 Flashcards
Think about the roles and functions of Nervous System
Controlling voluntary movements, controlling involuntary movements and controlling our internal environment
Think about homeostasis and an example
The internal equilibrium or balance of your body. Ex:temperature maintainace, water level maintainace ,engry levels maintainace
Stimulus:
An enviormental change that we can percieve (sound,light,temperature)
Response:
The reaction to stimulus (to move,to scream,etc…)
Brain
Spainal cord
CNS
Pepheral nerve
PNS
What does the word “Neuron” mean
Specific cell of nervous system
Neurons
Sensory:
Motor:
Sensory:neuron that recive information from sense organs
Motor:neuron that sends information to muscle
Said the 3 parts of the brain
Cerebrum:controls speech abstract thought movements 2 hemisphere
Cerebellum:controls balance and posture
Brain stems:in charge of involuntary movements
Addiction:
Physical or psychological depends
Whithdrawal:
When the effect of a substance decrease and and other diseas is needed
Depressant:
Drug such alcohol or heroine that slows down messages along the CNS
Stimulant:
Drug that speeds up the messages and function of CNS
Stimulant are divide into: legal such as:—–1,—2 and illegal, for example:——-3,—- –4
Coffe1, tea2, cocaine3, exta sy 4
Disease
————-
Infectious disease Noninfectious disease
——————— ————————–
Disease: condition in which homeostasis is broken
Infectious diseases: causes by pathogens can be transmitted from one person to another
Non-infectious disease: it is hot pathogens related. Ex: cancer, diabetes, etc…
