Sensory Stimuli and Responses in Organisms

  • Light is reflected, creating an image due to the presence of light.
  • Biryani and Shawarma shops emit enticing smells that stimulate hunger.
  • External stimuli like heat, sound, light, and smell trigger responses in our bodies.
  • Hunger pangs and mouth-watering are examples of internal stimuli.
  • Stimulus is an agent causing a sudden change in an organism's internal or external environment.
  • Receptors in sense organs like eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and skin receive stimuli.
  • Photoreceptors in the eyes respond to light, while auditory receptors in the ears respond to sound.
  • Olfactory receptors in the nose detect smells, and gustatory receptors in the tongue perceive tastes.
  • Touch receptors in the skin respond to physical contact, triggering muscle contractions or gland secretions.
  • Effectors, like muscles and glands, act upon impulses received from the brain or spinal cord in response to stimuli.

"Skin receptors and neurons in nervous system"

  • Tanko is received by touch receptors called thermo receptors for heat and cold stimuli.
  • Cool receptors respond to cold stimuli, while touch receptors respond to touch stimuli.
  • The skin has various receptors for heat, cold, and touch stimuli.
  • Receptors in the skin respond to stimuli due to the presence of heat, cold, and touch.
  • Neurons are the basic unit of the nervous system, controlling the body's functions.
  • Neurons are also known as nerve cells and play a crucial role in the body's control mechanism.
  • The nervous system comprises the brain, spinal cord, and nerves, controlling all bodily functions.
  • Neurons have specific structures like dendrites, cell bodies, axons, and synaptic knobs for transmitting impulses.
  • The myelin sheath provides nutrients and oxygen to neurons, aiding in the speed of impulse transmission.
  • Synapses are junctions between neurons or between neurons and muscle or glandular cells, facilitating communication in the body.

Types of Synapses and Nervous System Structures

  • There are three types of synapses: neuron to neuron, neuron to muscle cell, and neuron to glandular cell.
  • Synapses involve the transmission of electrical signals and the production of chemicals for muscle or glandular cell reactions.
  • The synaptic knob of a neuron connects with the dendrite of an adjacent neuron at the point of contact called a synapse, separated by a small gap known as the synaptic cleft.
  • Neurotransmitters like acetylcholine and dopamine are released at synapses, converting electrical impulses into chemical energy and back into electrical impulses for transmission.
  • Reflex actions are automatic and involuntary responses to stimuli, following a pathway known as the reflex arc involving sensory neurons, relay neurons, motor neurons, and related muscles.
  • The human nervous system is divided into the central nervous system (CNS) comprising the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system (PNS) consisting of nerves connecting the CNS to the body.
  • The brain is categorized into the forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain, with structures like the cerebrum, hypothalamus, thalamus, pons, medulla, and cerebellum located in these regions.

"Brain Regions and Functions: A Summary"

  • Pons is a vital region of control in the brain, responsible for functions like breathing and heartbeat.
  • Damage to Pons can lead to severe consequences, similar to issues with Medulla Oblongata.
  • Drawing the brain helps in understanding its structure, including the cerebrum, cerebellum, and medulla oblongata.
  • The brain is protected by the cranium, a hard bony covering, and layers of meninges that provide extra protection.
  • Cerebrospinal fluid flows around the brain and spinal cord, offering protection, nourishment, and waste removal.
  • The forebrain consists of the cerebrum and diencephalon, controlling various functions like touch, smell, and speech.
  • The midbrain acts as a bridge between the forebrain and hindbrain, facilitating reflex actions and communication.
  • The cerebellum is crucial for body balance, preventing falls and maintaining stability during movements.
  • Medulla Oblongata controls involuntary actions like heart rate, breathing, swallowing, coughing, sneezing, and vomiting.
  • The spinal cord, part of the central nervous system, is protected by the vertebral column and cerebrospinal fluid, providing nourishment and protection.

Plant hormones and human endocrine system regulation.

  • Plant hormones, or phytohormones, are essential for plant growth and movement.
  • Phytohormones control coordination in plants through chemical messengers.
  • Five main plant hormones are Auxin, Gibberellin, Cytokinin, Abscisic Acid, and Ethylene.
  • Auxin promotes growth and cell elongation in shoots.
  • Gibberellin and Cytokinin promote cell division in roots and xylem cells.
  • Ethylene aids in fruit ripening, while Abscisic Acid helps in leaf fall and seed development.
  • Hormones like Insulin, Glucagon, and Adrenaline play crucial roles in the human endocrine system.
  • Feedback mechanisms in hormone regulation, like insulin production in response to blood glucose levels, maintain balance in the body.
