But your brain is doing a lot more than just remembering formulas. Those sweaty palms you get as the test starts? That's your brain at work. The relief you feel when you know an answer's right? The Brain and Nervous System The brain is like a computer that controls the body's functions, and the nervous system is like a network that relays messages to parts of the body. Click through this slideshow to learn more about the brain and nervous system. Cerebrum The largest part of the brain, the cerebrum has two hemispheres (or halves). Brain Stem At the base of the brain, the brain stem connects to the spinal cord and is made up of the midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongata.

Midbrain The midbrain acts like a complex switchboard, allowing the brain to communicate with the rest of the nervous system. Pons The pons relay messages from the cerebrum to the cerebellum and spinal cord. Medulla Oblongata Thalamus. The Magic School Bus- Inside the Nervous System. Bill Nye the Science Guy S02E14 The Brain. Biology for Kids: Nervous System in the Human Body. The nervous system is made up of the brain, the spinal cord, and a large network of nerves that covers all parts of the body.

Biology for Kids: Nervous System in the Human Body

Together the nervous system helps different parts of our body communicate and allows our brain to control what is going on. Without the nervous system our brain would be mush. It wouldn't know anything that was going on in the outside world and wouldn't be able to control our body. The brain and the spinal cord make up what is called the central nervous system.

The rest of the nerves together are called the peripheral nervous system. Nerves - Peripheral Nervous System Nerves are sort of like wires that carry communication signals or impulses around the body. There are two main types of nerves: motor nerves and sensory nerves. Motor nerves - Motor nerves allow the brain to control our muscles. Fun Facts about the Brain for Kids: Interesting facts about the human brain (Educational) How the Nervous System Works.
