The bodies of birds are adapted for flying. ... The long flight feathers on the wings and tail help birds balance and steer. In addition, birds have a system of air sacs in their body that connect to the lungs. The air sacs enable birds to extract much more oxygen from each breath of air than other animals can.

The nervous system is a highly complex part of an animal that coordinates its actions and sensory information by transmitting signals to and from different parts of its body. The nervous system detects environmental changes that impact the body, then works in tandem with the endocrine system to respond to such events.

Conclusion. The autonomic nervous system comprises of two parts- the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system activates the fight or flight response during a threat or perceived danger, and the parasympathetic nervous system restores the body to a state of calm.

The nervous system is a complex network of nerves and cells that carry messages to and from the brain and spinal cord to various parts of the body. ... The Central nervous system is made up of the brain and spinal cord and The Peripheral nervous system is made up of the Somatic and the Autonomic nervous systems.

The autonomic nervous system consists of sensory neurons and motor neurons that run between the central nervous system (especially the hypothalamus and medulla oblongata) and various internal organs such as the: heart.

Autonomic nervous system. Autonomic nervous system (ANS) is a functional division of the nervous system, with its structural parts in both the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). It controls the glands and smooth muscle of all the internal organs (viscera) unconsciously.

system. there are two major divisions of the nervous system the first is the central nervous system. which is made up of the brain and the spinal cord. the second is the peripheral nervous system which consists of nerves that run throughout the body the peripheral nervous system itself is made up of two subdivisions.

The Human Nervous System: The major organs and nerves of the human nervous system. The CNS is comprised of the brain, cerebellum and spinal cord. Remaining neurons, and associated cells, distributed throughout the body form the PNS.

The Central Nervous System (CNS) includes all of the nerves of the Brain and Spinal Cord. The Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) includes all of the nerves both sensory and motor connecting the CNS to the muscles, organs, and sensory structures of the body.

The nervous system transmits signals between the brain and the rest of the body, including internal organs. In this way, the nervous system's activity controls the ability to move, breathe, see, think, and more. The basic unit of the nervous system is a nerve cell, or neuron.

The nervous system includes the brain, nerves and spinal cord. It is the communication center for the body, sending and receiving messages, regulating body functions and serving as the control center for the five senses and for emotions, speech, coordination, balance, and learning.

Tutorial 5: Autonomic Nervous System. The Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) is divided into two functionally distinct divisions, the Sympathetic and the Parasympathetic Divisions. Each consists of nerves that control the activity of the heart, blood vessels, glands, and other organs containing smooth muscles.
