Description
The chapter “Control and Coordination” explains how living organisms sense changes in their internal and external environment and respond in an organized way. The notes start with the nervous system, describing neurons as the functional units, the flow of nerve impulses (stimulus → receptor → sensory neuron → integration centre → motor neuron → effector), and the distinction between the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system (sensory and motor nerves). Key brain parts—cerebrum, cerebellum, medulla and hypothalamus—are summarised with their major functions, and reflex arcs are illustrated as the fastest, involuntary responses.
The endocrine system section outlines that glands release chemical messengers (hormones) into the bloodstream. Major endocrine glands—pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal, pancreas, gonads and the pineal—are listed with their principal hormones (e.g., insulin, glucagon, thyroxine, adrenaline) and the physiological effects of each. The notes emphasize that hormonal action is slower but longer‑lasting than nerve impulses and that many processes, such as growth, metabolism, water balance and reproduction, depend on endocrine regulation.
