CONTROL & COORDINATION notes
CONTROL & COORDINATION
KEY CONCEPTS & GIST OF THE LESSON
Coordination-The working together of various organs of the body of an organism in a proper manner to produce appropriate reaction to a stimulus is called coordination.
Stimulus- The changes in the environment to which an organism responds and reacts is called Stimulus
Control & coordination in animals- takes place by
(i) Nervous system &
(ii) Endocrine system
Nervous system
Stimulus → Receptor organ → Sensory nerve → Brain/Spinal cord
↓
Response ← Effector organ ← Motor nerve
Endocrine system
Stimulus → Endocrine organ → Secrete hormone → Hormone in blood
↓
Response ← Target organ
Parts of the Nervous system –
(i) Brain
(ii) Spinal cord
(iii) Nerves (Neurons)
A Neuron is the structural & functional unit of Nervous system
Parts of a neuron-
(i) Dendrites
(ii) Cell body
(iii) Axon
Synapse- Space/junction between two adjacent nerves is called Synapse.
Passing of information takes place –
(i) By Electric impulse (inside the neuron) and
(ii) In the form of chemicals (At synapse)
Reflex action-
Spontaneous, involuntary and automatic response to a stimulus to protect us from harmful situations. Eg. On touching a hot object unknowingly we instantly withdraw our hand.
Reflex arc- The pathway of the reflex action is called Reflex arc.
Stimulus → Receptor organ → Sensory nerve → Spinal cord →→Effector organ→
Response
Nervous system-
(1) Central Nervous system (CNS)
(2) Peripheral Nervous system (PNS)
(i) Brain
(i) Autonomic Nervous system
(ii) Spinal cord
(ii) Voluntary Nervous system
Brain
(i) Centre of coordination of all activities
(ii) Thinking is involved
(iii) Complex process
Parts of brain-
Fore brain Mid brain H ind brain
(i) Cerebrum
(ii) Thalamus
(iii) Hypothallamus
----------
(i) Cerebellum
(ii) Pons
(iii) Medulla oblongata
Fore brain
Cerebrum- (i) Main thinking and largest part of the brain.
(ii) It has 3 main areasa.
Sensory area- to receive impulses from sense organs via Receptors
b. Motor area- control voluntary movements.
c. Association areas- Reasoning, learning & intelligence.
Thalamus – It relays sensory information to the Cerebrum
Hypothallamus- It forms the link between Nervous system & Endocrine system
Mid brain- It connects Fore brain and Hind brain. Controls reflex of eyes & ears
Hind brain- Connects the Fore brain & Hind brain
Cerebellum – Controls & coordinates muscular movements, maintaining body
posture and
equilibrium.
Pons- Acts as a bridge between brain & spinal cord
Medulla oblongata- Controls involuntary actions like blood pressure, salivation, vomiting, etc.
Spinal cord- Cylindrical or tubular structure extending downwards from the Medulla oblongata.
Protection of the brain & the spinal cord-
(i) Bony outer covering: skull for the brain & vertebral column for the spinal cord.
(ii) Cerebrospinal fluid present in between the three membranes.
Action caused by Nervous tissue
Information → Nervous tissue → Brain Muscles → Causes action
Path or action-
Nerve impulse → Muscle cell → Changes shape due to special proteins
↓
Action caused ← Shorter form of muscles ← Change shape & arrangement of cell
Chemical communication by hormones- (advantages)
(i) Electrical impulses have their limitations because they reach only those cells connected to the nervous tissue.
(ii) Also the nerve cells cannot generate & transmit impulses continuously.
(iii)Electrical communication is slower.
Hormones- (i) are chemical messengers secreted by endocrine glands
(ii) Are secreted in small amounts & may act in nearby places or distant places.
(iii) Do not take part in the reaction & are destroyed immediately.
Hormones are secreted by- Endocrine glands & Exocrine glands
S. No. Endocrine glands Exocrine glands
1. Ducts absent Ducts present
2. Secrete hormones Secrete enzymes
3. Secreted in blood Secreted in ducts of glands
4. Situated away from the site of action Situated near the site of action
Some glands which act as both endocrine & exocrine
Gland Endocrine function Exocrine function Pancreas Produces insulin &
Glucagon hormone. Produces digestive enzyme. (pancreatic amylase)
Testes Produces hormone Testosterone Produces male gametes (reproductive cells)
Ovaries Produces hormone Oestrogen Produces female gametes (reproductive cells)
Important Endocrine glands, the hormone they secrete & their function
Endocrine gland
Hormone Function
Pituitary gland Growth hormone Body growth, development of bones & muscles
(If excess- Gigantism)
(If less- Dwarfism)
Thyroid gland Thyroxine Regulates carbohydrate, protein & fat metabolism( If less- Goitre_
Pancreas Produces insulin & Glucagon hormone Regulates blood sugar levels (if less diabetes is caused)
Testes in males Produces hormone
Testosterone
Development of secondary male
characters like deep voice, beard, etc.
Ovaries in females
Produces hormone Oestrogen
Development of secondary female characters like mammary glands,
menstrual cycle, maintenance of pregnancy.
Coordination in plants- Only chemical coordination is present in plants.
Tropic movements- The movements of plants in the direction of stimulus (positive) or away from it (negative) are called tropic movements. E.g. Phototropism, Geotropism. Chemotropism.
Nastic movements -The movements of plants independent of stimuli are called nastic movements. E.g.- Touch me not plant leaves close when touched.
Plant hormones (Phytohormones)
Examples- 1. Auxins- Help in growth of root & shoot tips.
2. Gibberellins- Help in vegetative growth
3. Cytokinins- Promote cell division
4. Abscissic acid - Inhibits growth & causes wilting (falling) of leaves
