• Occipital lobe

• Temporal lobe

Processes hearing, language and helps us identify faces.

• Frontal lobe

What does the neuron's Myelin Sheath do?

• Controls the actions of the neuron

• Produces food for the neuron

• Carries information from the cell body to other neuronsThis is a wrong answer

• Surrounds and insulates the axon

• Nucleus

• Cell Body

• Axon

• Node of Ranvier

What is the function of the nervous system?

• to control and coordinate body functions and systems.

• to protect the body from harm.

• to identify pain and begin healing.

• to break down food.

The basic unit of structure and function in the nervous system is a nerve cell. Nerve cells are also called-

• Osteocytes

• Dendrites

• Neurons

• Spinal Cords
