Nervous System Map

This session moves from the heart and vessels to the brain and nervous system. Learn six landmarks before working through the individual word-part cards.

You need six landmarks.

• The brain processes and coordinates.
• The spinal cord carries signals between brain and body.
• Nerves branch from the brain and spinal cord.
• The meninges are protective membranes around the brain and spinal cord.
• The cranium is the skull around the brain.
• Psych words concern the mind or mental state, not the physical brain alone.
