The human body has three vital functions: nutrition, interaction, and reproduction. The interaction function involves stimuli, sensation, processing information in the brain, and responses. There are five senses - smell, taste, touch, sight, and hearing - that detect external and internal stimuli through sensory organs and nerves connected to the central nervous system and brain. The brain then coordinates voluntary or involuntary responses through the nervous and musculoskeletal systems.
Chapter 15. regulatory mechanisms in animalsLeigh1962
The document discusses regulatory mechanisms in animals, focusing on hormones and nervous systems. It describes how hormones are produced in endocrine glands and transported via the circulatory system to target tissues, and how the nervous system uses neurons and electrical and chemical signals to enable rapid sensory and motor responses. Specifically, it explains the roles of the hypothalamus and pituitary gland in hormonal regulation, and provides examples of reflex responses coordinated by the spinal cord and autonomic nervous system.
The document summarizes key concepts about the human nervous system:
1. The nervous system consists of the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and peripheral nervous system (cranial and spinal nerves). The brain controls voluntary actions while the spinal cord controls involuntary reflexes.
2. Sensory neurons detect stimuli and transmit nerve impulses to the central nervous system, while motor neurons transmit impulses from the CNS to effectors like muscles.
3. A reflex arc involves a receptor, sensory neuron, relay neuron, motor neuron, and effector to produce an involuntary response like the knee jerk reflex.
The document summarizes the key aspects of the human nervous system. It describes how the nervous system and endocrine system both play a role in homeostasis through secreting chemical messages, though the nervous system is much faster. It defines the main cell type, neurons, and describes the three types - sensory, inter, and motor neurons. It also outlines the main components of the central nervous system, including the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system. Finally, it briefly discusses some common malfunctions of the nervous system like cerebral palsy, meningitis, stroke, and polio.
This document discusses the key body systems involved in the three vital functions of the human body: nutrition, interaction, and reproduction. It focuses on the digestive, respiratory, circulatory, and excretory systems that enable nutrition, and describes how the nervous, sensory, and musculoskeletal systems facilitate interaction by transmitting and responding to stimuli. It provides details on bones, joints, muscles, and the main parts of the brain and nervous system that allow for coordinated movement and responses.
Psychologists study the brain and nervous system to understand how biological functions influence human behavior. The nervous system contains around 1 trillion nerve cells and 100 chemicals called neurotransmitters that transmit messages between nerves. An excess or lack of certain neurotransmitters like dopamine, serotonin, and endorphins can impact behaviors related to movement, mood, reward processing, pain, and mental illnesses. Understanding the biological underpinnings of behavior provides psychologists with insights to treat conditions influenced by neurotransmitter imbalances.

This document discusses the three vital functions of the human body: nutrition, interaction, and reproduction. It provides details on the digestive, respiratory, circulatory, and excretory systems that support nutrition. It also explains how the human body interacts with its environment through the five senses and the nervous system. The musculoskeletal system is described as connecting the bones, muscles, tendons, and joints to allow movement.
The document discusses coordination and response in biology. It covers coordination in animals through the nervous and endocrine systems. It describes the key parts of the human nervous system including neurons, the central nervous system, and reflex arcs. It also discusses the endocrine system, listing the major endocrine glands and their functions. The document then covers coordination and response in plants through tropisms such as phototropism and geotropism, which are influenced by the plant hormone auxin.
The nervous system controls and coordinates functions throughout the body. It contains two major organs, the brain and spinal cord. The brain is the most important organ that controls functions like body temperature and heart rate using electrical signals. The spinal cord acts as an information highway between the brain and body, sending and receiving messages to control things like touch, movement, and temperature. The nervous system interacts with other body systems like the muscular and cardiovascular systems to regulate muscle movement, heart rate, and blood flow.
The nervous system has three main functions: sensory input, integration of information, and motor output. It is responsible for coordinating all activity in the body. The central nervous system, made up of the brain and spinal cord, receives sensory impulses from the body, processes the information, and responds through motor output. The peripheral nervous system includes the cranial and spinal nerves, which are involved in voluntary movement, the senses, and autonomic functions like digestion.
The document discusses the musculoskeletal and nervous systems. It describes how the skeleton and muscles work together through joints to enable movement. The skeletal system includes bones and cartilage, while the muscular system contains muscles, tendons, and ligaments. The nervous system coordinates internal organs and voluntary movement through the central and peripheral nervous systems. The central nervous system contains the brain and spinal cord, while the peripheral nervous system transmits signals through nerves.
The document discusses control and coordination in animals through the nervous and endocrine systems. It describes how stimuli are received by receptors and transmitted via sensory, relay, and motor neurons to effectors that coordinate responses. Key terms covered include neurone, synapse, reflex arc, and sense organs like the skin, tongue, nose, ears, and eyes. The roles of the hypothalamus and pituitary gland in linking the nervous and endocrine systems are also summarized.
The document discusses the three vital functions of living things - nutrition, interaction, and reproduction. It focuses on the human body and nutrition, describing the four systems involved - the digestive system, respiratory system, circulatory system, and excretory system. It also lists some health habits and then discusses the body's senses and how stimuli are received, processed, and responded to, with the main senses being smell, taste, touch, sight, and hearing.
The document discusses the main parts of the human brain. It notes that the brain is the largest organ in the human body and is responsible for controlling body functions and coordinating activities. The main parts are the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brain stem. The cerebrum is the largest part and is divided into left and right hemispheres connected by the corpus callosum. The cerebellum coordinates body movement and balance and is located below the cerebrum. The brain stem consists of the midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongata, and is responsible for functions like vision, hearing, blood pressure regulation, and vomiting.
The document discusses the musculoskeletal system, which controls the entire body and is made up of muscles that can stretch and contract, bones that protect internal organs, and ligaments and tendons that connect bones to each other and muscles to bones respectively. Maintaining a balanced diet, exercising, having good posture, spending time with friends, and keeping clean are all important ways to take care of one's musculoskeletal system.
The brain controls the entire body and has five main parts: the cerebrum, cerebellum, brain stem, pituitary gland, and hypothalamus. Neurons are the basic nervous cells that form nerves and allow the brain to communicate with the rest of the body. To keep the nervous system healthy, a person should eat nutritious foods containing potassium and calcium, exercise, wear a helmet during sports, avoid drugs and alcohol, and engage their brain through activities like puzzles and reading.
The document provides an overview of the anatomy and physiology of the nervous system. It discusses the central nervous system including the brain and spinal cord, as well as the peripheral nervous system. The brain is divided into several parts that have distinct functions, including the cerebral hemispheres, hypothalamus, pituitary, cerebellum, and medulla oblongata. The nervous system coordinates responses to stimuli through sensory processing, integration of information, and motor responses.

The brain is the most complex organ in the body that allows humans to think, have emotions, and dream. It weighs about 3 pounds and is made up of around 100 billion neurons. The brain is covered by meninges and housed in the skull. It is responsible for various functions like sight, hearing, smell, movement, memory, language, emotion, and autonomic processes through different areas like the visual, auditory, motor, and emotional areas. The cerebellum controls movement coordination while the brain stem regulates vital functions. The two hemispheres of the brain have specialized functions with the left controlling language and the right spatial skills and emotion.

The document discusses the functions of the human body and focuses on interaction. It explains that our senses allow us to perceive the world and that the brain processes this sensory information. The brain controls both involuntary functions like breathing as well as voluntary actions and thinking. It also controls our emotions and stores memories. The document then discusses the nervous system in more detail, explaining that it sends messages from the brain to different parts of the body to allow responses. It notes that the nervous system interacts with every other system in the body.
The document summarizes the parasympathetic nervous system. It is the involuntary nervous system that slows the heart rate, increases intestinal and glandular activity, and relaxes sphincter muscles. Together with the sympathetic nervous system, it constitutes the autonomic nervous system. The parasympathetic system works to return the body to homeostasis after experiencing stress or pain by slowing the heart rate and relaxing muscles. It is consistently active at a low level.
The central nervous system is composed of the brain and spinal cord. The spinal cord contains sensory neurons, motor neurons, and interneurons that enable spinal reflexes, allowing the body to quickly remove itself from danger. The peripheral nervous system includes the autonomic nervous system, which regulates internal organs, and the somatic nervous system, which connects the brain to skeletal muscles. Neurons transmit electrochemical signals via neurotransmitters released at synapses between neurons.
The nervous system is the body's main communication system; it gathers, synthesizes, and uses data from the environment. The most basic unit of the nervous system is the neuron, which serves as both a sensor and communicator of internal and external stimuli.
The vertebrate brain
The vertebrate brain is the main part of the central nervous system. The brain and the spinal cord make up the central nervous system,
In most of the vertebrates the brain is at the front, in the head. It is protected by the skull and close to the main sense organs.
Brains are extremely complex and the part of human and animal body. The brain controls the other organs of the body, either by activating muscles or by causing secretion of chemicals such as hormones and neurotransmitters.
Muscular action allows rapid and coordinated responses to changes in the environment.
The brain of an adult human weights about 1300–1400 grams .
In vertebrates, the spinal cord by itself can cause reflex responses as well as simple movement such as swimming or walking. However, sophisticated control of behaviour requires a centralized brain.
The structure of all vertebrate brains is basically the same.
At the same time, during the course of evolution, the vertebrate brain has undergone changes, and become more effective.
In so-called 'lower' animals, most or all of the brain structure is inherited, and therefore their behaviour is mostly instinctive.
In mammals, and especially in man, the brain is developed further during life by learning. This has the benefit of helping them fit better into their environment. The capacity to learn is seen best in the cerebral cortex.
Three principles
The brain and nervous system is essentially a system which makes connections. It has input from sense organs and output to muscles. It is connected in several ways with the endocrine system, which makes hormones, and the digestive system and sex system. Hormones work slowly, so those changes are gradual.
The brain is a kind of department store. It has, all inter-connected, departments which do different things. They all help each other gather senses.
Much of what the body does is not conscious. Basically, much of the body runs on automatic (breathing, heart beat, hungry, hair growth) adjusted by the autonomic nervous system. The brain, too, does much of its work without a person noticing it. The unconscious mind refers to the brain activities which are hardly ever noticed.

The brain has three main parts - the brain stem, cerebellum, and cerebrum. The brain stem connects the brain to the spinal cord and controls involuntary functions. The cerebellum coordinates movement and balance. The largest part, the cerebrum, is divided into four lobes that control functions like conscious thought, sensory processing, vision, and sound. The spinal cord extends from the brain through the backbone and links the brain to the peripheral nervous system, handling reflex actions.
The document summarizes the structure and function of the nervous system. It describes how neurons transmit electrical signals in response to stimuli, and how the brain is divided into the forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. It explains the basic functions of the cerebrum, cerebellum, pons, and medulla oblongata. Muscle movement occurs when nerve impulses cause muscle proteins to change shape, shortening the muscle. Reflex actions help the body respond quickly through a reflex arc from receptor to effector organ.
The central nervous system is comprised of the brain and spinal cord. The brain controls bodily functions like awareness, movement, and memory. The spinal cord transmits sensory and motor signals through the spinal canal. The brain is protected by meninges and cerebrospinal fluid. It can be divided into the hindbrain, midbrain, and forebrain. The forebrain contains structures that regulate homeostasis, memory, emotion, and higher cognitive functions.
The brain is the central organ of the nervous system located in the cranium. It controls and regulates functions of the human body through complex processes. The brain is divided into three main parts - the forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. The forebrain includes the thalamus, cerebrum, and limbic system. The cerebrum is the largest part and controls functions like movement, reasoning, and learning. Neurotransmission allows neurons to communicate via neurotransmitters like acetylcholine, GABA, and serotonin that are released at synapses. Neurotransmitters can be excitatory, stimulating the brain, or inhibitory, balancing excessive stimulation.
The document summarizes key aspects of the nervous system, brain, and behavior. It describes the central and peripheral nervous systems, including neurons, neurotransmitters, and the somatic and autonomic nervous systems. It then discusses three parts of the brain - hindbrain, midbrain, and forebrain - and their functions. The document also summarizes the endocrine system, hormones, and key glands like the pituitary, thyroid, and adrenals. It concludes by discussing the interplay between heredity and environment based on twin studies.
The nervous system has 3 main functions: sensory input, integration, and motor output. It is divided into the central nervous system (CNS; brain and spinal cord) and peripheral nervous system (PNS). The PNS has sensory and motor divisions. The motor division is further divided into somatic and autonomic systems. Nervous tissue contains neurons and supporting cells like neuroglia. Neurons have dendrites, axons, and may be covered by a myelin sheath. Information passes between neurons at synapses. The brain is divided into the cerebrum, diencephalon, brain stem, and cerebellum. The special senses of smell, taste, vision, and hearing involve specialized receptors and
By crossing this ocean and gaining complete knowledge about the brain, that is, self-knowledge, man will be able to use this most important part of the body to the fullest. Will be able to overcome many of the current limitations and psychological discomforts. Be able to create new levels of success and possibilities for yourself. Neuroscientists say that if the man could discover why he was unique, he might not lead himself to collapse but would respect himself more than he does now.
The document provides information about the central nervous system. It discusses that the central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord. It then describes the three main parts of the brain - the forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. For each part, it lists their locations and main functions. The forebrain controls complex functions like thinking and memory. The midbrain is involved in movement and sensory processing. The hindbrain controls basic functions vital for survival like breathing and heart rate.
The document discusses the nervous system, which is made up of the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and peripheral nervous system. The central nervous system receives sensory information and controls responses through the brain and spinal cord. It is divided into the forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. The peripheral nervous system connects the central nervous system to the rest of the body through nerves and is divided into the somatic and autonomic systems. Common nervous system diseases include Alzheimer's disease, which causes memory loss and cognitive decline, and epilepsy, which involves seizures.
The document discusses the structure and function of the human brain. It describes the brain as the most complex organ that contains billions of neural networks. It discusses the main parts of the brain including the cerebellum, which controls coordination and balance, and the four lobes of the cerebral cortex - the frontal, parietal, occipital and temporal lobes. The frontal lobes are involved in functions like speech, movement, planning and decision making, while the other lobes process sensory information and control functions like vision and hearing. In conclusion, the brain acts as the central control over the body's organs and functions through muscle and hormonal control.

The nervous system controls activities through electrical impulses in response to stimuli. Receptors receive stimuli and initiate responses. The main receptors are gustatory, thermoreceptors, olfactory, photoreceptors, and phonoreceptors. Neurons have a cell body, dendrites that receive impulses, and an axon that carries impulses. Impulses travel between neurons at synapses. The brain has a forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. The forebrain includes the cerebrum, thalamus, and hypothalamus, and controls voluntary actions and processes sensory information. The cerebrum has four lobes and is divided into left and right hemispheres. The
The document summarizes the structure and function of the nervous system. It discusses that the nervous system begins prenatally and develops into the spinal cord and brainstem. The central nervous system comprises the brain and spinal cord, which are encased in bone and fluid for protection. The peripheral nervous system connects the central nervous system to receptors and effectors throughout the body. It is divided into the somatic and autonomic nervous systems. The autonomic system controls involuntary functions and is divided into the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems. The brain is also described in terms of its main structures and functions.

This document provides an overview of the biological bases of behavior, including the structure and function of the nervous system and endocrine system. It describes how the nervous system is composed of the central and peripheral nervous systems. The peripheral nervous system includes the somatic and autonomic nervous systems. It also outlines the basic parts and functions of neurons, neurotransmitters, and the pathway of a neural impulse. Additionally, it summarizes the major structures of the brain and their functions, and identifies the key endocrine glands and hormones.
The nervous system has three main components - the brain, nerves, and spinal cord. The brain is the control center located in the cranial cavity and is made up of the cerebrum, brainstem, and cerebellum. The cerebrum is divided into four lobes and is responsible for functions like memory, thinking, language, and movement. The brainstem consists of the midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongata and controls vital functions. The cerebellum, located in the back of the brain, coordinates movement and balance. The nervous system allows communication and coordination throughout the body to control all functions.

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real lifeartemacademy2
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.
Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...Suzanne Lagerweij
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!
