6.1.1 Central Nervous System

Cards (46)

  • What two components make up the Central Nervous System (CNS)?
    Brain and spinal cord
  • The brain is the control center responsible for thought, emotion, and action
  • The spinal cord acts as a pathway for sensory and motor signals between the brain and the body.
  • What is the function of the brain in the CNS?
    Control center for CNS
  • The spinal cord serves as a pathway for sensory and motor signals
  • The spinal cord is responsible for processing thoughts and emotions.
    False
  • Match the CNS component with its function:
    Brain ↔️ Control center for CNS
    Spinal cord ↔️ Pathway for sensory signals
  • Arrange the functions of the brain in the order they appear in the study material:
    1️⃣ Cognition
    2️⃣ Emotion
    3️⃣ Movement
    4️⃣ Regulation
  • Which function of the brain involves thinking, learning, and memory processes?
    Cognition
  • The brain processes and regulates feelings through the function of emotion
  • The brain's function of regulation maintains the body's internal environment.
  • Match the brain function with its description:
    Cognition ↔️ Processes thoughts and memory
    Emotion ↔️ Regulates feelings
    Movement ↔️ Controls actions
    Regulation ↔️ Maintains internal balance
  • What is the primary role of the spinal cord in the CNS?
    Pathway for sensory signals
  • The brain's function of cognition processes thoughts and memory.
  • The brain's function of emotion regulates feelings and emotions.
  • Which brain function controls voluntary and involuntary actions?
    Movement
  • What is the brain responsible for in the Central Nervous System?
    Critical functions
  • The brain controls cognition, which includes thinking, learning, and memory
  • The brain processes and regulates emotions.
  • What type of actions does the brain control?
    Voluntary and involuntary
  • The brain maintains the body's internal environment
  • The brain is the control center of the Central Nervous System.
  • What is the role of the spinal cord in the Central Nervous System?
    Signal transmission
  • Reflex arcs enable quick responses to stimuli without brain involvement.
  • The Central Nervous System (CNS) is composed of the brain and spinal cord
  • What is the coordination role of the CNS?
    Plan and execute actions
  • The CNS relays signals between the brain and the body.
  • The brain functions as the control center for thoughts, emotions, and actions
  • What are the two main components of the Central Nervous System?
    Brain and spinal cord
  • The brain is the control center of the CNS
  • Match the brain function with its description:
    Cognition ↔️ Processes thoughts and memory
    Emotion ↔️ Regulates feelings
    Movement ↔️ Controls actions
  • What processes does the brain's cognition function handle?
    Thinking, learning, and memory
  • The brain's regulation function maintains the body's internal environment
  • What is the main role of the spinal cord in the CNS?
    Signal transmission
  • Match the spinal cord function with its description:
    Sensory Signal Transmission ↔️ Carries sensory information to the brain
    Motor Command Transmission ↔️ Transports motor instructions from the brain
    Reflex Arcs ↔️ Rapid responses without brain processing
  • Reflex arcs bypass the brain, allowing for quick responses to stimuli.
  • What are the two primary components of the CNS?
    Brain and spinal cord
  • The CNS ensures seamless operation through coordination, control, and communication
  • The CNS controls both voluntary and involuntary movements.
  • What are the two main categories of methods for studying the CNS?
    Invasive and non-invasive
