Introduction Systems thinking, as defined by today’s scholars, has been around for decades and continues to grow as researchers turn to the past, present, and future to gain a better understanding. In fact, concepts found in systems thinking go back to the time of Aristotle (Mele, Pels, & Polses, 2010; Ing, 2013). This method points out how systems have no ends, are all interconnected, and that it is impossible to completely comprehend anything (Senge, 2014). Since humans tend to want to…

the central nervous system, which consist of the brain and spinal cord. “Of all the organ systems in the body, the nervous system is often the one most affected by alcohol. Alcohol causes the brain to gradually lose control of the body, meaning that one’s ability to move, think, and see becomes increasingly impaired as one drinks” (Teen Health and Alcohol). This part of the body manages the body’s movements. People do not have control over their body when their nervous system is slowed;…

Temporal lobe Explanation: The occipital lobe is the primary visual processing center. It receives visual input from the retina and interpret the signal into a recognizable image.

I. Introduction: The purpose of the case study is to determine which of the patient’s cranial nerve(s) are damaged. The human brain and brain stem contain eleven pairs of cranial nerves to the neck and head, and one pair of cranial nerves to the abdomen and thorax. Each cranial nerve is numbered by a Roman numeral and in sequential order from cranial to caudal: (I) olfactory nerve carries sensory information to the brain and is responsible for the nose; (II) optic nerve carries sensory…

children. Dominant gene defects are:- • Tuberous sclerosis (a disorder affecting the skin and nervous system) • Achondroplasia (dwarfism) • Huntington’s chorea (a disorder of the central nervous system) If both parents carry a single recessive gene defect children have a 35% chance of being affected. Recess gene defects are:- • Cystic fibrosis (a genetic condition in which the lungs and digestive system become clogged with think sticky…

The cerebellum, on the other hand, is involved in controlling movements through coordination, precision, and accurate timing of movement. Unlike the basal ganglia, it does not directly initiate or suppress movement but works by influencing movements by modifying activity patterns of the upper motor neurons. The cerebellum receives its input from the spinal cord in form of mossy fibers that project from the pons and spinocerebellar pathways. Mossy fibers contribute the information necessary for…

no:16472374 The nervous system and neuron communication The nervous system is a highly complex and broad area of biopsychology. People depend on the nervous system for their survival and safety.This essay will explore the components from which the nervous system is composed and their main functions. This essay will also decipher the mechanisms through which neurons communicate. According to Carlson (2014) the Nervous system is branched into two categories - the central nervous system (CNS)…

Although learning new things, like writing, was something that I loved doing in elementary school, that all changed when it was daily implemented. As an art form I recently come to love writing down my thoughts, ideas, opinions and stories. A struggle for me while attempting to write an essay or report is grammar.…
