    The nervous system has two main divisions - the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord. It controls functions like movement, breathing, seeing, and thinking. The peripheral nervous system connects the central nervous system to the rest of the body and has two divisions - the somatic and autonomic nervous systems. The somatic system controls voluntary movement while the autonomic system regulates involuntary functions like digestion.

    SYSTEM
    WHAT CAN YOU SAY ABOUT THE
    PICTURE
    NERVOUS SYSTEM

    Our Nervous System connects all your body parts and transmits
    signals one part to another.
    Our nervous system is like a computer, were our brain is the software
    and is responsible for making decisions and the nerves are like the
    hardware or wiring that communicates those decisions with the rest of
    the body
    WHAT NERVOUS SYSTEMS DO

     Our nervous system controls the ability to move, breathe,


    see, hear, think and more..
    WHAT ARE THE TWO MAIN DIVISION OF NERVOUS SYSTEM

     Central Nervous System


     Peripheral nervous System
    CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM

    Brain

     The CNS serves as the main


    processing center of the entire
    nervous system. Spinal Cord
     It consist of two main components.
    BRAIN

     This is an organ located within the


    skull that functions as organizer and
    distributer of information for the
    body.
    Large upper part of the brain that controls activity
    CEREBRUM
    and thought.

    The part that connects the brain to the spinal cord and
    BRAIN STEM controls automatic functions.

    Heart rate Swallowing

    Breathing
    Digestion

    Blood pressure
    SPINAL CORD

     This serves as a channel for signals


    between the brain and the rest of the
    body and controls simple
    musculoskeletal reflexes without
    input from the brain.
    PERIPHERAL
    NERVOUS SYSTEM

     The PNS connects the central


    nervous system to organs and limbs.
     It has two main divisions:
    TWO DIVISIONS OF PERIPHERAL NERVOUS
    SYSTEM

     Somatic Nervous System


     Autonomic Nervous System
    SOMATIC NERVOUS SYSTEM

     This system is associated


    with voluntary control of
    body movements.
     Who can give an example of voluntary movement?
    TWO MAIN PARTS OF
    SOMATIC NERVOUS SYSTEM

    Spinal nerves Cranial nerves


     The nerves that carry motor  The nerve fibers that carry
    and sensory signal between information into and out of
    spinal cord and the body the brain.
     There are 31 pairs of spinal  There 12 pairs of cranial
    nerves which supply the nerves that are associated
    communication links between with motor and sensory
    the central nervous system functions.
    and the neck, trunk, arms and
    legs.
    AUTONOMIC NERVOUS
    SYSTEM

     This system is associated


    with Involuntary control of
    body movements.
     Who can give an example of involuntary movement in
    our body?
    TWO MAIN DIVISIONS OF
    AUTONOMIC NERVOUS
    SYSTEM
