BLOCK 9: The Nervous System

The Human Nervous System



Athletic teams are successful only as the various members of the team work together in a coordinated and planned pattern.

Your body is similar. Each part has its designed function, but those functions only are effective as they work within a designed framework. The signals to and from each function are implemented through the entire nervous system of our bodies.

In this section you will see how plants and animals have levels of organization for structure and function, including cells, tissues, organs, organ systems and the entire organization of the organism.

As usual, watch and summarize the videos, define the vocabulary terms and do the quizzes at the end of this topic.
