10 Questions
Match the following parts of the nervous system with their functions:
Central Nervous System (CNS) = Integration and command center of the body Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) = Carries messages to and from the spinal cord and brain to remote body parts Nervous Tissue = Major controlling, regulatory, and communicating system in the body Sensory input = Monitoring stimuli occurring inside and outside the body
Match the following functions with the correct system:
Interpretation of sensory input = Nervous system Response to stimuli by activating effector organs = Nervous system Carries messages to and from the spinal cord and brain to remote body parts = Peripheral nervous system Integration and command center of the body = Central nervous system
Match the following terms with their definitions:
Sensory input = Monitoring stimuli occurring inside and outside the body Motor output = Response to stimuli by activating effector organs Central Nervous System (CNS) = The integration and command center of the body Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) = Carries messages to and from the spinal cord and brain to remote body parts
Match the following systems with their descriptions:
Nervous system = Major controlling, regulatory, and communicating system in the body Central Nervous System (CNS) = The integration and command center of the body Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) = Carries messages to and from the spinal cord and brain to remote body parts Endocrine system = One of the two systems our body relies on for regulation and communication
Match the following terms with their system or part:
Sensory input = Nervous system Motor output = Nervous system Central Nervous System (CNS) = Nervous system Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) = Nervous system

Study Notes
Nervous System Overview
- The nervous system is responsible for regulation, control, and communication in the body.
Functions of the Nervous System
- The functions of the nervous system include regulation, control, and communication in the body.
Central Nervous System (CNS)
- The CNS is the integration and command center of the body.
- It consists of the brain and spinal cord.
Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)
- The function of the PNS is to connect the CNS to the rest of the body.
- It consists of nerves that transmit information between the CNS and the rest of the body.
Nervous Tissue
- Nervous tissue is a type of tissue that makes up the nervous system.
Key Concepts
- Regulation, control, and communication are key functions of the nervous system.
- The CNS is responsible for integration and command, while the PNS is responsible for transmission of information.
Test your knowledge on the regulation and communication systems of the human body. This quiz covers the nervous system and the endocrine system, two vital systems that control and coordinate various functions in the body. Challenge yourself with questions on the functions and components of these systems.
