Study Plan

1
Day 1–2

Learn the Theory

Read the textbook chapter carefully. Note down definitions, formulas and key ideas. Focus on: 1. Control and Coordination in the Human Body, 2. Neuron: Structure and Function, 3. Nerves and Major Divisions of the Nervous System.

2
Day 3

Practise

Solve the textbook exercises and extra practice questions. There are 44 questions available for this chapter.

3
Day 4

Revise & Test

Revise key points without looking at your notes. Take a practice quiz and mark weak areas for another pass.

Day 7

Spaced Revision

Come back to Control and Coordination after a week. Use flashcards for quick recall and try past exam questions on this chapter.

What to Focus On

  • Control and coordination mean proper working of body parts together.
  • The nervous system gives quick control through nerve impulses.
  • The endocrine system gives chemical control through hormones.
  • Neuron means nerve cell.
  • Dendrites receive impulses.
  • The cell body contains the nucleus and cytoplasm.
  • Synapse is the junction between two neurons.
  • Neurotransmitters carry the signal across the synaptic cleft.
  • Impulse moves from one neuron to the next through the synapse.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The nervous system and endocrine system do the same job in the same way.

A neuron is the same as a nerve.

Dendrites carry impulses away from the cell body and the axon receives them.
