Questions and Answers
Coordination is the process through which two or more organs interact and complement the functions of one another.
True
The neural system and the endocrine system jointly coordinate and integrate all the activities of the organs in the body.
True
Physical exercise decreases the rate of respiration, heart beat, and blood flow via blood vessels.
False
The neural system provides an unorganized network of point-to-point connections for quick coordination.

Study Notes
Coordination and Neural System
- Coordination is the process by which two or more organs interact and complement each other's functions.
- The neural system and endocrine system work together to coordinate and integrate all bodily functions.
Neural System Organization
- The human neural system is divided into three parts: CNS (Central Nervous System), PNS (Peripheral Nervous System), and ANS (Autonomic Nervous System).
- The PNS includes the brain and spinal cord.
Autonomic Nervous System
- The ANS is further classified into sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems.
- The ANS transmits impulses from the CNS to skeletal muscles.
Neuron Structure
- The cell body of a neuron contains cytoplasm with typical cell organelles and Nissl's granules.
Functions of Neural Systems
- The CNS is the site of information processing and control, and includes the brain and spinal cord.
- The visceral nervous system transmits impulses from the CNS to the viscera and from the viscera to the CNS.
- Afferent nerve fibers transmit regulatory impulses from the CNS to peripheral tissues/organs.
Effects of Physical Exercise
- Physical exercise decreases the rate of respiration, heart beat, and blood flow via blood vessels.
