Understanding the Functions of the Nervous System

The nervous system plays a vital role in facilitating communication between organs, controlling activities, and storing memories. Comprising the brain, spinal cord, and neurons, this complex network uses electrical signals to transmit information. Neurons communicate through specialized junctions, forming a vast network. Explore how the nervous system interacts with other body systems and regulates bodily functions.

  2. functions The nervous system has many functions ,but the main one is to help the organs interact with the other organs. The nerves help send messages to organs from the brain.

  3. The main organs • The main organs in the nervous system are the brain, spinal cord .The nervous system controls most of your activities, memories.

  4. Body systems • The nervous system works with all of the other body systems. The nervous system helps control the other body systems by sending the brains messages to the location.

  5. The nervous system • The nervous system is a network of cells called neurons which transmit information in the form of electrical signals. Your brain has around 100 billion neurons, and each communicates with thousands of others – as many connections as in the world's telephone system, the biggest machine on the planet. Neurons communicate with each other at special junctions where chemicals help to bridge the gap between one neuron and the next.
