Study Notes

Nervous System Overview

Division Carrying Information: The peripheral nervous system (PNS) carries information to the central nervous system (CNS).
Activation of Muscles and Glands: The somatic nervous system, a component of the PNS, activates skeletal muscles and glands in response to integrated stimuli.
Function of Sensory Input: Sensory input is responsible for detecting changes in the environment (stimuli) and sending this information to the CNS for processing.
Function of Integration: Integration involves interpreting sensory information and coordinating appropriate responses, providing a critical role in decision-making processes within the nervous system.
Components of the Central Nervous System: The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord, serving as the primary control center for processing information and directing responses.
