(a) (i) The function of the nervous system is to coordinate the activities of our body.
(ii) It helps all other systems of our body to work together.
(iii) It receives information from the surroundings, processes it, interprets it and then responds accordingly.
(b) The main organs of the nervous system are; brain, spinal cord and nerves.
(c) When the sense organ in our body is affected, it sends the message to the brain in the form of electrical impulses through the sensory neurons. The brain analyses this message and decides the action to be taken. The brain then sends out instructions to the muscles of the concerned body parts through motor nerves and the concerned body part acts accordingly.
