                      3. THE CENRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
                        1. SENSORY NEURONES
                          1. NERVE CELLS CARRY SIGNALS AS ELECTICAL IMPULSES FROM THE RECEPTORS IN THR SENSE ORGANS
                          2. RELAY NEURONES
                            1. NERVE CELLS THAT CARRY SIGNALS FROM SENSORY NEURONES TO MOTOR NEURONES
                            2. MOTOR NEURONES
                              1. NERVE CELLS THE CARRY SIGNALS FROM THE CNS TO THE EFFECTOR MUSCLES OR GLANDS
                              2. EFFECTORS
                                1. MUSCLES AND GLANDS ARE EFFECTORS
                                  1. THEY RESPOND IN DIFFERENT WAYS
                                    1. MUSCLES CONTRACT IN RESPONSE TO A NERVOUS IMPULSE
                                      1. GLANDS SECRETE HORMONES
