2. Special nerve cells which makes it
possible for the brain and other parts of
the body to send signals back and forth.
Neurons are the messengers of the brain.

3. Glial cells surround each neuron and act
like a net to hold all its delicate parts in
place.
Cerebral spinal fluid helps neurons send
their messages.

10. receptor
neurons
Neurons found in theeyes, ears, skin, joints, and
various organs. These neurons have dendrites that are
very sensitive waves.
Receptor neurons also pick up changes in your body’s
position as well as changesin the tensionof your
muscles.
11. connector
neurons
Neurons that form linkagesbetween most of the neurons in
the central nervous system.
They make up most of the brain, the spinal column, and the
major sensory nerves.
They make up most of the reticular formation, the limbic
system, and the cerebral cortex.

1. sensory input system
It includes the specialized sense organs and neurons which receive
sensory stimuliandrelay these tothe brainthroughthe spinalcord.

3. limbicsystem
Biologically, this is called the hypothalamus. This is interconnected with the reticular
formation. This system controls your emotions. This is referred to as the motivation
centerof the brain.

4. analysisand storage system
In biological terms, analysis and storage take place in the different areas of the
cerebral cortex.The cortex covers thewhole surface of the cerebrum.
27. What is the passage about?
The procedure is quite simple. First, you arrange things into different groups. Of course, one pile may be
sufficient depending on how much there is to do. If you have to go somewhere else due to lack of
facilities, that is the next step. Otherwise, you are pretty well set. It is important not to overdo things.
That is, it is better to do few things at once than too many. In the short run, this may not seem important
but complications can easily arise. Soon, however, it will become just another facet of life. It is difficult to
foresee any end to the necessity for this task in the immediate future, but then one can never tell. After
the procedure is completed, one arranges the materials into different groups again. They can be put into
their appropriate places. Eventually, they will be used once more, and the whole cycle will then have to
be repeated. However, this is part of life. (Bransford and Johnson, 1973, p.400)
