Our nervous system

What are the three parts of the nervous system?

• Cerebrum, cerebellum and brainstem

• Brain, spinal cord and nerves

• Brain, cerebrum and cerebellum

• Brainstem, spinal cord and nerves

____________________ carries messages to and from the central nervous system.

• The nerves from the central nervous system

• The nerves from the peripheral nervous system

• The nerves from the spinal cord

• The nerves from the brainstem

The brain is protected inside the:

• Cerebrum

• Spinal cord

• Skull

• Brainstem

What is the main organ of the nervous system?

• The cerebrum

• The nerves

• The spinal cord

• The brain

The image represents a part of the nervous system that

• carries communication signals or impulses around the body.

• connects to the muscles and tell them what to do.

• controls many automatic functions such as breathing, heart rate, blood pressure, and digestive activities.

• transmits nerve impulses from the brain to the spinal nerves and, then, back to the brain.

"________ are like wires that carry communication signals or impulses around the body."

• 
• 
• 
• 

Which part of the nervous system controls the body functions, like breathing or heart rate?

• cerebrum

• cerebellum

• brainstem

• nerves

Check the correct option

• Dentrites talk to dendrites from the cell next to them over something called synapse.

• Nerves talk to dendrites from the cell next to them over something called synapse.

• Axons talk to dendrites from the cell next to them over something called synapse.

• Neurons talk to dendrites from the cell next to them over something called synapse.
