A nerve cell that receives and sends electrical signals over
long distances within the body
Neuron
Motor Neuron
Retina
A neuron that transmits impulses between other
neurons, especially as part of a reflex arc.
Motor Neuron
Interneuron
Cochlea
Motor neurons are the nerve cells along which the brain
sends instructions, in the form of electrical impulses, to
the muscles
Sensory Neuron
Motor Neuron
Interneuron
Consists of the brain and spinal cord, to which sensory
impulses are transmitted and from which motor impulses
pass out, and which coordinates the activity of the entire nervous system
Peripheral Nervous System
Central Nervous System
Somatic Nervous System
The nervous system outside the brain and spinal cord.
Somatic Nervous System
Autonomic Nervous System
Peripheral Nervous System
The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain upper and is
the main part of the brain of vertebrate animals. It has left
and right hemispheres. The cerebrum controls conscious and voluntary processes.
Cerebrum
Cerebellum
Retina
The part of the brain at the back of the skull in vertebrates. Its function is to coordinate and regulate muscular activity to include movement and balance.
Brain Stem
Cerebellum
Cochlea
The part of the brain located at the base of the brain and
made up of the medulla oblongata, The brainstem controls and regulates vital body functions, including respiration, heart rate, and blood pressure.
Endocrine gland
Cochlea
Brain Stem
The part of the nervous system that controls
voluntary movements in the body, such as those
performed by the skeletal muscles
Somatic Nervous System
Autonomic Nervous System
Central Nervous System
Glands of the endocrine system that produce hormones and secrete them into the bloodstream.
Pituitary gland
Hypothalamus
Endocrine gland
The part of the nervous system that is responsible for
regulating involuntary body functions, such as heartbeat,
blood flow, breathing and digestion.
Autonomic Nervous System
Motor Neuron
Somatic Nervous System
A layer at the back of the eyeball containing cells that are sensitive to light and that trigger nerve impulses that pass via the optic nerve to the brain, where a visual image is formed.
Retina
Cochlea
Neuron
A neuron that transmits nerve impulses from a sense organ towards the central nervous system.
Motor neuron
Sensory neuron
Interneuron
The cochlea is the part of the inner ear that converts mechanical energy (vibrations) into nerve impulses sent to the brain.
Brain stem
Retina
Cochlea
The area of the brain that secretes substances that influence pituitary and other gland function and is involved in the control of body temperature,hunger, thirst, and other processes that regulate body equilibrium.
Hypothalamus
Cerebellum
Cerebrum
It is called the master gland because it produces hormones that control other glands and many body functions including growth.
Endocrine gland
Pituitary gland
Cochlea
