Study Notes
Eye and Vision
- The iris controls the amount of light entering the eye by adjusting the size of the pupil.
- The lens focuses light onto the retina, enabling clear vision at varying distances.
Ear and Balance
- The vestibular system, which includes the semi-circular canals, is responsible for maintaining balance and equilibrium.
Nervous System Functions
- The medulla oblongata regulates vital autonomic functions such as breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure.
- The myelin sheath insulates nerve fibers, increasing the speed of electrical impulses and ensuring efficient communication within the nervous system.
Brain and Emotions
- The limbic system, particularly the amygdala and hippocampus, is crucial for processing emotions and forming memories.
