Slide 1-

B1.2 Coordination and Control Responding to change Reflex actions Hormones and menstrual cycle Fertility Homeostasis Hormones and plant growth
Slide 2-

Responding to change The nervous system carries impulses along neurons enabling you to react to your surroundings and coordinate your behaviour. Stimulus Receptor Sensory neuron CNS Motor neuron Effector Change in the environment E.g. Eyes, skins, found in sense organs Brain and spinal cord- coordinates response Muscles (contract) or glands (secrete)
Slide 3-

Reflex actions Automatic responses important for survival Similar response to a normal conscious action but involves a relay neuron in the spinal cord or unconscious area of the brain It then travels to the conscious area so you know about the reflex - after it has happened Synapses Junctions between nerves Impulses cross the synapses Chemicals released into the gap between neurons Chemicals attach to the surface of the next neuron and set up a new electrical impulse

Sensory receptor --> sensory neuron --> CNS --> relay neuron (spinal cord) --> motor neuron --> effector 4

Hormones and fertility Glands secrete hormones which are then carried around in the blood Menstrual cycle Brought about by hormones made and released by pituitary gland and ovaries Hormones: FSH causes eggs to mature Stimulates the ovary to produce oestrogen Oestrogen Causes the lining of the uterus to develop Inhibits FSH production Stimulates the release of the mature egg Others: progesterone and LH 28 days: womb lining thickens, Eggs released from ovary after 14 days - ovulation, If not fertilised, the womb lining and egg come out as a period Contraception Inhibits production of FSH so eggs don't mature in the ovaries Fertility treatments FSH used to stimulate eggs to mature and trigger oestrogen production IVF - eggs collected and fertilised in the lab then implanted Advantages - fewer children (cost), women freedom Disadvantages - expensive, multiple births, embryo use
Slide 6-

Homeostasis Internal environment is maintained by homeostasis Controlling water and ions Water moves in an out of body cells taken in from food and drink lost from breathing out, sweat and urine (salt lost here too) Kidneys control this Controlling temperature Core temperature 37C, enzymes work best Sweat to cool down, shiver to warm up Below 35C hypothermia risk too high leads to heat stroke / heat exhaustion enzymes and cells don’t work properly Controlling blood glucose Kept constant by hormones from pancreas
Slide 7-

Hormones and plant growth Plants are sensitive, they need to grow the right way.. Plant roots grow towards moisture and in the direction of force of gravity Plant shoots grow towards light and against the force of gravity Phototropism – response of a plant to light Gravitropism/geotropism – response of a plant to gravity Auxin – hormone that controls responses of roots and shoots The opposite occurs in the roots Using plant hormones – used as rooting powder or high doses as weed killers due to rapid uncontrolled growth
