Response and Coordination

Stimulus
any change or signal in the environment hat can
make organism react
Internal stimuli
Changes that occur inside the body
External stimuli
Changes that occur outside the body
Response
What our body does in reaction to a stimulus

Internal
stimuli
Changes in
blood osmotic
pressure
Sugar level in
the blood
External
stimuli
Changes in
light intensity
Temperature
Sound
Touch
Pressure
External stimuli
Enable organism to adjust to enviromental
changes
To protect organism from harm
Ensure survival of organism
Internal stimuli
Regulate the equilibrium of the internal environment

Neurones
CELL that carry information through nervous
system

Nerve impulse
INFORMATION that neurones carries

Stimulus sound of
door bell
Receptor in
the ear
Integrating
Centre
Effector (muscle in the
hand )
Response (open the door)
Receptor
detect
stimulus
Trigger nerve
impulse produce
afferent neurone
Afferent neurone
carries nerves
impuls to
integrating centre
Brain interpret
information- send out
nerve impulse
Efferent neurone
carries nerve
impulse from brain
to receptor
Effector cause
rresponse to
stimulus
Integrating centre
Effectors (skin and
endocrine gland)
Response (activities
to increase heat loss
from body surface)
Normal body
temperature
Stimulus (high body
temperature)
Receptors in the skiin
The process involved in the detection of
stimulus and the subsequence response of
the organism toward stimulus
