| A | B |
|---|
| regulation | control and coordination of all life activities |
| receptors | your five senses |
| neurons | nerve cells that build up the nervous system |
| effectors | muscles and glands attached to the neurons |
| impulse | electrochemical message |
| cell body | contains the nucleus |
| dendrites | detect stimuli and generate an impulse |
| stimulus | a change in your environment |
| axon | transmits impulse from the cell body to the terminal branches |
| synapse | gap between neurons |
| sensory neuron | carries impulse to the brain |
| motor neuron | carries impulse from the brain to the effectors |
| interneuron | relays impulses from oe neuron to another |
| nerves | make up the nervous system |
| sensory nerve | aids travel of impulse to the brain |
| motor nerve | aids travel of impulse from the brain to effectors |
| neurotransmitters | aid the transmission of impulses |
