IQ2 How does the coordination of body systems maintain the functioning of multicellular organisms?
Learning Intention - Compare and contrast how the nervous and endocrine systems coordinate the body's responses to stimuli.
Evidence of Learning (Success Criteria)
Students should be able to:
S - Identify the role and common structures of the nervous and endocrine systems
D - Explain how the nervous system detects and responds to stimuli referring to: receptors, nerves, spinal cord, electrical impulse, brain and effectors. (be able present process in a flow chart)
D - Explain how the endocrine system detects and responds to stimuli referring to: receptors, brain, glands, hormones and target organs. (be able present process in a flow chart)
D - Explain similarities and differences between the nervous and endocrine systems in their responses to stimuli.
T - Analyse and interpret data on stimulus-response pathways to explain similarities and differences

Use the components below connected by arrows to draw in your book the somatic nervous system pathway: voluntary, conscious actions (e.g. choosing to move your hand)
2. View the video below left, and use it to identify in the diagram below right how the nervcous system protects in what it perceives as more dangerous situations:
3. Use the components below connected by arrows to draw in your book the autonomic nervous system pathway (called a reflex arc) which can bypass conscious processing (e.g. flinching when something comes near your eyes)

Reading Task:
15 minute task: In groups, for an allocated aspect of the Nervous System, compile a GIST summary to present to the class. Not all rows will apply.
The end task is a 20-or-fewer word summary of the important information from the attached reading and JacPlus 3.6 linked. (The subtitle does not count in the word count.)
1. "Nervous System...electrical impulses."
2. "Neurons...bound together."
3. "Some neurons...such as muscle"
4. "Synapse...memory."
5. "Nervous reactions...knee-jerk reaction"
6. "More complex... task"
7. Drawing of a conscious/voluntary response
8. Drawing of a reflex arc.

1. Turn and talk
Neurons, also called nerve cells or neurones, are the fundamental, electrically excitable units of the brain and nervous system. They receive sensory input, send motor commands, and process information using electrical and chemical signals. With about 100 billion in the human brain, they enable sensation, thought, movement, and memory.
