Resumo de Recurso
Nerves + Hormones.
nervous system uses electrical impulses to enable reactions
cells called receptors detect stimuli (changes in the environment)
Receptor cells have:
nucleus
cell membrane
cytoplasm
Impulses from receptors pass along sensory neurone to brain/spinal cord (CNS).
Impulses are sent along motor neurons from brain (CNS) to effector organs.
receptor
sensory neuron
CNS (co-ordinator)
motor neuron
effector
Reflex actions
sensory neurons - 5 senses
motor neurons - messages to muscles
relay neurons - connect sensory and motor - located in CNS
reflex arc electrical impulses bypass the conscious area of brain.
time between stimulus and response is as short as possible
only motor, relay + sensory neurons involved.
stimulus
receptor
co-ordinator
effector
response
Synapses
gap between 2 neurones.
nerve impulses diffuse neurotransmitters out of the synaptic knob + bind with post-neuron.
nervous system reacts slower than endocrime system.
Menstrual Cycle
mature egg released from ovary every 28 days
FSH (follicle stimulating hormone)
causes egg to mature, stimulates ovary to produce oestrogen
oestrogen
causes lining of womb to develop, inhibits FSH production, stimulates release of a mature egg.
Artificial Control of Fertility
oral contraceptives
stop FSH production therefore no eggs mature.
FSH used as drug to stimulate egg maturity.
FSH+LH used in IVF to stimulate eggs to mature.
LH is Luteinising hormone
produced in pituitary gland, stimulates release of egg.
Controlling conditions
water levels and ions, blood sugar + temp.
water - urine in kidney
blood sugar - pancreas monitors by hormones
temp. - 37oC enzymes work best
Homestasis
sweating causes body to cool, energy from body used to evaporate the water in sweat.
Plant growth control
PHOTOTROPISM= sensitivity to light
GRAVITROPISM= respose to gravity
moisture=responses co-ordinated by plant hormone auxin
responses of roots/shoots to stimuli due to unequal distribution of plant hormones.
