A _____ is a change in the
environment that causes a
response in an organism.
Stimulus
Which nervous system monitors
movement and functions that can be
controlled consciously? (50 extra
points if you can provide me with the
fancy name)
Voluntary
Nervous
System
What makes up your central nervous
system? (*Must include both to get the
points)
Brain and Spinal Cord
List the chain of events that occurs
when your body responds to a
stimulus. (*ALL MUST BE PRESENT
TO RECIEVE THE POINTS)
StimulusSensory NeuronsBrain
and Spinal CordMotor Neurons
Body Response
What are at least two specific roles
of the autonomic nervous system?
Movements of the
Heart; Smooth
Muscles of the
Stomach; Glands.
The _______ ________is in charge of
all the functions the body needs to
stay alive, like breathing air.
Brain Stem
Look at the visual. What is the pink
area of the brain known as? (Extra
100 points: what is the main function
of this area?)
Occipital Lobe: visual
processing center.
This part of the brain is often known as the
“Little Brain” and helps to control balance
and posture.
Cerebellum
What is connected to the
pituitary gland and controls
the homeostasis (inner
thermostat) for the human
body?
The job of the __________
__________ is to is to produce
and release hormones into
your body.
Pituitary Gland
True or False. Most responses
of the endocrine system are
controlled by the voluntary
nervous system.
False; Autonomic
This type of gland releases
hormones necessary for
growth and metabolism.
The endocrine system helps
maintain homeostasis (internal
thermostat) through the action of
________ mechanisms.
Negative
Please provide at least ONE function of
a hormone.
Regulate growth; Sexual
Development; Balance
Chemicals in the Blood
The largest part of the brain is known as
the...
(HINT: not a lobe and it is divided into two
hemispheres)
Cerebrum
Which senses allow you to
process chemical
information?
Taste and Smell
______ are chemicals that are
made in one organ, travel
through the blood, and produce
an effect in target cells.
Hormones
True or False. The pancreas
secretes hormones that control
sexual development.
False...Extra 100 points if you
correct the statement, but need
both to get all of the points
When a body action occurs
automatically & does not
involve the brain, it is known
as a
Reflex
Which type of neuron carries
information from the eyes &
ears to the central nervous
system?
Sensory Neuron
Which hormone ONLY produces responses in
the heart, lungs, stomach, intestines, and
glands?
(It is NOT produced in all body cells!)
ADRENALINE
