The Central Nervous System is made up of the brain and the spinal cord
True
False
The peripheral nervous system...
Are the nerves that extend from the brain and the spinal cord to the rest of your body.
Are the nerves that cause anxiety.
Are the nerves that extend from the brain and spinal cord to your legs.
Are responsible for burning calories and making ATP
What do motor neurons do?
Protect our body using antibodies and red blood cells.
Are responsible for the fight or flight responses.
Motor neurons go through the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body to move the body. The signal travels from the central nervous system to the peripheral nervous system (CNS → PNS).
Motor neurons operate with gasoline, air and spark plugs.
What do sensory neurons do?
The sensory neurons are the signals that get sent to the brain from the senses. The signal travels from the peripheral nervous system to the central nervous system (PNS → CNS).
They are responsible for helping us make good decisions.
They are responsible for helping our body digest food and ATP.
They help us see in the darkess.
The autonomic nervous system...
Controls your heartbeat
Controls blood pressure
Controls talking
Controls respiration (breathing)
The somatic nervous system...
Controls things under your conscious control
Controls walking
Controls talking
Controls systems that happen automatically (like breathing and digestion).

Why do we need to breathe and eat?
We need carbon dioxide and photo synthesis to create ATP through digestion.
We need oxygen and nutrients (glucose) to create ATP through cellular respiration.
We need C6H12O6 and TNT to create neurons to fire.
We need to breathe, but not to eat.
