Document Summary
**clicker: in the visual system of vertebrates ,light energy hitting the photoreceptor causes all of the following, except: opening of navgic"s. Process information transduction of the signal communication among neurons integration of signals at neural soma. Produce motor/effector output: cells of the central nervous system: types of neurons (slide provided) S h e r w o o d: information flow in the nervous system, figures 8-1 & 8-2. Chain of ganglion on the bilateral axis of symmetry: in humans its our spinal cord. Nerve cord: chain of ganglia along the bilateral axis of symmetry. Segmented body plan: general principles of the evolution of nervous systems. Nervous systems are based primarily on one cell type: neuron. Organization of nervous systems are based on reflex and behavioral arcs. Complex organisms have more neurons than simpler organisms (invertebrates) Complexification of n. s. involves addition to the basic system (not substitution)
