Exercise 5. Read and translate the text:
Anatomy and Physiology of the Nervous System
Nervous system is the vast network of cells specialized to carry information (in the form of nerve impulses) to and from all parts of the body in order to bring about bodily activity. The brain and spinal cord together form the central nervous system. The central nervous system controls the voluntary muscles of the head, trunk, and the limbs, and it is responsible for all movement in them and for all sensation in skin, muscles, bones and joints. The remaining nervous tissue is known as the peripheral nervous system and includes the autonomic nervous system which controls all involuntary muscles. It supplies all the internal organs, and is made up of nerve cells (neurons) supplying the glands and the muscular walls of the internal organs and the blood vessels. Neurons are the basic working units of the brain, specialized cells designed to transmit information to other nerve cells, muscles, or gland cells.
The autonomic nervous system is divided into the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. Sympathetic nervous system has fibers that leave the central nervous system in the thoracic and lumbar regions. Sympathetic nerves are distributed to the blood vessels, heart, lungs, intestines and other abdominal organs, sweat glands and salivary glands.
Parasympathetic nervous system has fibers that leave the central nervous system from the brain and the lower portion of the spinal cord. The nerves are distributed to blood vessels, glands, and the majority of internal organs. The system works in balance with the sympathetic nervous system.
In human beings the nervous system has the ability to form cortical associations. All the human beings have this function which is formed upon signalization. It is a process in which the stimulus produces the same range of reactions as the stimulus with which it is associated. Such reflexes are called conditioned. And the stimuli producing reactions which don’t depend on surrounding conditions are called unconditioned.
