Chapter 3
BIOLOGY OF BEHAVIOUR: PART 1
,Key Learning Goals
Describe the structure of the neuron
Describe the firing of a neuron
Explain how an impulse is transmitted to another neuron
Recall the two nerve pathways
Provide an overview of the autonomic nervous system
Describe the structure and functioning of the spinal cord
, The human brain is so vastly complex
at any given moment millions of sign
travelling between the neurons, and
various neuronal pathways, within its
structures.
Introduction
In this chapter we will explore the
interactions between the brain and h
behavior
Many South African individuals exper
life events that affect them in ways w
psychological and biological processe
overlap significantly.
, Communication Behaviour depends on rapid information process
in the Nervous The nervous system is a complex communication
System in which signals are constantly being transmitted
received and integrated.
The nervous system is a living tissue composed o
major categories of cells: neurons and glia.
