Where can nerve nets be found?
-simple organisms
such as
Hydra
-the
sensory receptors
respond to a
limited range
of
stimuli
, and the
number
of
effectors
is
relatively small
Describe the features of a nerve net.?
-contains
one type
of
nerve cell
-nerve
cells have
short extensions
and
connect
to
other
nerve
cells
in a
net-like structure
, which
branches
in
several different directions
-neurones
are
unmyelinated
, so
responses
are
slow
-the
degree
of
response
is
dependent
on the
strength
of the
stimulus
and how
many receptors
are
stimulated
Summarise what a nerve net is.?
-nervous system
in
Hydra
-sensory receptors
in nerve nets respond to a
limited range
of
stimuli
-small number
of
effectors
-neurones
are
unmyelinated
and
joined
by
short extensions
-responses
are
slow
-nerve cells branch
in
several different directions
