THE NERVOUS SYSTEM
BRAIN, NERVES, SPINAL CORD, AND HOW THEY WORK!
THE BRAIN
THE PARTS OF THE BRAIN
- The frontal lobe
- The parietal lobe
- The temporal lobe
- The occipital lobe
PARTS OF THE BRAIN (2)
- Brain stem
- Cerebellum
FRONTAL LOBE
THE FRONTAL LOBE
- Problem solving
- Controls your behavior
- Emotions
- Makes decisions
- consciousness
The parental lobe
THE PARIENTAL LOBE
- It makes thoughts from words
- It recognizes words
- It receives sensory info from your body
Occipital lobe
The occipital lobe receives and processes visual information directly from the eyes and relates this information to the parietal lobe and frontal lobe. One of the things it must do is interpret the upside-down images of the world that are projected onto the retina by the lens of the eye.
The temporal lobe
The temporal lobe
- Heps you learn
- Hearing
- Language
The brain stem
The brain stem
- It conects the brain to the spinal cord
- Controls heart rate
- Breathing
- Eating
- Sleeping
Cerebellum
Cerebellum
- Timing
- Posture
- Force
- Steadyness
- Range
The spinal chord
Nerve highway
Parts of the spinal cord
The Nerves
The bodys mailman
The Nerves
- Detects heat
- Pain
- Sends messages of what to do
How it interacts with other systems
Cardiovascular System
- Controls blood pressure
- Heart rate
