(a) The nervous system and the endocrine system together perform the functions of control and coordination in human beings.
(b) The central nervous system consists of the brain and the spinal cord. It is responsible for the coordination and control of the activities of the nervous system. It directs incoming messages to the motor neurons which are connected to the part of the body that will respond to a stimulus.
(c) The various functions of the brain are as follows:
(i) It receives information-carrying nerve impulses from all the sensory organs of the body.
(ii) It responds to the impulses brought in by the sensory organs by sending instructions to the muscles and glands making them function accordingly.
(iii) It correlates the various stimuli from different sense organs and produces the most appropriate and intelligent responses.
