Questions and Answers

What are the basic functions of the nervous system?

  • Receptor activation, sensory information processing, neurotransmitter release
  • Sensation, interpretation, reaction
  • Stimuli monitoring, muscle activation, homeostasis maintenance
  • Sensation, integration, motor output (correct)
  • How does the nervous system differ from the endocrine system?

  • The nervous system is rapid and fast-acting, while the endocrine system's effects may persist (correct)
  • The endocrine system is involved in sensory processing, unlike the nervous system
  • The endocrine system is responsible for muscle activation, unlike the nervous system
  • Both systems have similar effects on homeostasis
  • What is the nervous system's role in homeostasis?

  • It serves as an integrating center for maintaining homeostasis (correct)
  • It has no role in maintaining homeostasis
  • It directly controls all body functions related to homeostasis
  • It only responds to homeostatic imbalances
