Aspects about the interactions of hormones and the brain

The central and peripheral nervous system span the entire body, with central consisting of neurons in the brain and spinal cord, and peripheral using nerves (bundles of neurons) expanding into the body.

Positioned on top of the kidneys, the adrenal glands are responsible for releasing hormones, including epinephrine and norepinephrine, which are crucial for the body's stress response.

Glands that release chemicals to the interior of the body
(From the Greek "Endon"= within)
"krinein"= to secrete

Interactions between hormones and the nervous system

Structures and components of the nervous system that can be seen by the bare eye. 

Gross Neuroanatomy

The brain and spinal cord make up the central nervous system. 

Central Nervous System

The peripheral nervous system extends throughout the body. It consists of nerves, which are bundles of axons. There are motor nerves and sensory nerves. The systems are devided into the somatic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system.

Peripheral Nervous System

Based on the scenario provided, explain the roles of both the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system in producing this reflex action. Describe the flow of information from the initial touch to the final muscle movement.

Reflex Action Analysis

Given the following scenario, analyze the distinct roles played by the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system in producing the described behaviors.
