Which system uses pathways in your body, called nerves, to send and receive information?

• Nervous System

• Endocrine System

• Central Nervous System

• Peripheral Nervous System

When your nervous system responds to its environment, this is called a.....

• Stimulus

• Reaction

• Sensory

• Impulse

The Central Nervous system is composed of....

• The Brain and Spinal Cord

• Motor and Sensory Neurons

• Brain and Nerves

• The Brain-stem and Spinal Cord

These types of cells gathers information from inside and outside your body and send impulses to the brain.

• Sensory Neurons

• Motor Neurons

• Stimulus Neurons

• Response Neurons

These types of cells move impulses from the brain/spinal cord to other parts of the body to produce movement.

• Motor Neurons

• Sensory Neurons

• Stimulus Neurons

• Response Neurons

This type of neuron signals the heart to beat, skin to sweat, or to produce movement.
