Nervous System

Are you feeling nervous? In this BrainPOP movie, Tim and Moby introduce you to the control center for your entire body, your nervous system! You’ll learn the three basic parts of the nervous system, and see exactly how it works to help you sense hot and cold, feel the difference between soft and sharp edges, and coordinate all of your actions and reactions. Plus, you’ll find out how neurons and brain chemicals called neurotransmitters work; what makes your reflexes function, and which parts of your skin have more receptors than others. Your nervous system really keeps you in the know!
