The role of our brainThe brain is the control centre of body activities.
Let’s see an example.

The role of our brain1 Stimulus
The phone rings.

The role of our brain2 Sense organ
The ears detect thesound and sendmessages to thebrain.

5
The role of our brain3 Brain
The brain interprets the messages,
produces the sense of hearing and decides what to do.
The phone is ringing.

6
The role of our brain4 Muscles
The brain sends messages to the muscles.
11.5 The brain and our senses
7
The role of our brain5 Response
The muscles bring about a response: getting up and picking up the phone.
Hello?

Rearrange the events to describe the detection of the coming volleyball and Mandy’s response.

11.8A Mandy’s eyes detect the light from the volleyball.
Light-sensitive cells in the eyes send messages to the brain.
B Mandy’s muscles contract/relax to enable her to jump up and pass the volleyball over the net.
C The brain sends messages to the limb muscles.
D Mandy’s brain interprets the messages. She is thinking, ‘The ball is being passed to me. Shall I
set the ball to the hitter? No, I shall pass the ball directly to the other team to try to trick them.’

6 What do you notice from the results of the three trials?
The more times we try, the shorter the reaction time becomes (i.e. the faster the reaction).
