What are the two parts of the nervous system?
The central nervous system
Nerves
The nervous system-
Sensory receplors- sensory nerve- Brain and spinal cord- motor neurone- Effectors
Nervous impulses travel from the ……… ……. to the central nervous system along a ………. neurone.
Sensory receplors
Sensory
Impulses travel from the CNS to an effector along a …… neurone. The effector may be a …… or …..
Motor
Muscle
Gland
Eye simulation-
Light
Ear stimulation-
Sound vibrations, postion of head
Mouth stimulation-
Checimals
Skin stimulation-
Temperture, pain and texture
Noes stimulation-
Checimals
To be able to label a eye
…..
Retina-
Contains light senstive cells
Lens-
Focuses light onto the retina
Sclera-
Protective outer layer of the eye
Cornea-
Refracts the light rays
Optic nerve-
Carries impilses to the brain
Fovea-
Contains a high concertaration of light through sensitive cells
Pupil-
Hole through which light enters the light
Iris-
Contains muscle which changes the size of the pupil
Draw a diagram of how the light forms an image…
…
Bright light is…
Small pupil
Dim lights-
Large pupil
Bright light, radical and circular…
Radical relax
Circular contract
Dim light- radical, circular
Radical contract
Circular relax
Blight spot is…
Where the optic nerve leaves the eye. No light senstive cells there. If light is there you wont see it.
