Card 1Coordination

What is coordination in the body?

Answer

Coordination is the process through which two or more organs interact and complement the functions of one another. The nervous system gives the fastest coordination in the body, helping organs respond

Card 2Neuron and Neural System

What are neurons?

Answer

Neurons are highly specialised cells of the neural system that can detect, receive, and transmit different kinds of stimuli. They are the basic units of the nervous system and make rapid communication

Card 3Human Nervous System

What are the main divisions of the human nervous system?

Answer

The human nervous system has two main divisions: the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. The central nervous system includes the brain and spinal cord, while the peripheral nervo

Card 4Central Nervous System

What is the CNS responsible for?

Answer

Card 5Cerebrospinal Fluid

What is cerebrospinal fluid?

Answer

Cerebrospinal fluid is a clear, colourless fluid present between the piamater and arachnoidmater and also in the ventricles of the brain and spinal cord. It contains glucose, proteins, lactic acid, ur

Card 6Brain Regions

Describe the cerebrum.

Answer

The cerebrum makes up about two-thirds of the human brain and has two hemispheres joined by the corpus callosum. Its outer layer is grey matter called the cerebral cortex, and the inner layer is white

Card 8Cerebral Cortex Functions

What is the function of the cerebral cortex areas?

Answer

The somaesthetic area in the parietal lobe perceives pain, touch, and temperature. The motor area in the frontal lobe controls voluntary muscle movements. The premotor area controls involuntary moveme
