The nervous system uses neurons and electrochemical signals to transmit information quickly. It has two parts - the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system (rest of body). The endocrine system is slower acting but influences behaviors like sleep, eating, growth and sexuality through chemical messengers called hormones secreted by glands like the pituitary, thyroid, adrenals, pancreas, testes and ovaries. The document also notes that both genetic and environmental factors (nature and nurture) influence traits and personality.

Balloon Kyphoplasty Step By Step Procedure Guidesesterb
This document provides a step-by-step guide to KYPHON® Balloon Kyphoplasty, a minimally invasive procedure used to treat vertebral compression fractures. It describes the procedure which involves making small incisions to insert balloons into the fractured vertebra. The balloons are inflated to restore height and create a cavity for bone cement. The balloons are removed and cement is injected to form an internal cast for support. The procedure typically takes less than an hour and results in reduced pain and improved mobility and quality of life. Risks include those associated with any surgery.
The document discusses the nature vs nurture debate regarding how genes and environment influence human behavior. It argues that while genes may influence some personality aspects, environment and experiences have a greater impact in shaping how people act. Nurture from parents and caregivers during development teaches people ways of thinking and behaving. For example, how one is exposed to violence on TV versus in their home life can influence whether they understand the difference between fiction and reality. Overall, the document supports the view that individuals are responsible for their own actions, and that placing full control of behavior on genes removes this responsibility.
