My brother, David, was always close to our grandmother. Both of them shared a love of Mother Nature and of food that they had grown themselves. Whenever his schedule permitted, he would drop in for a short visit and a cup of coffee. One day, when he found no one home, he left a chunk of dirt on her porch. This started what was later to be known as his "calling card". Grandmother would come home occasionally and instantly know that Dave had been by when she spotted the chunk of dirt on her porch.

Although Grandmother had a poor upbringing in Italy, she managed to do well in the United States. She was always healthy and independent and enjoyed a fulfilling life. Recently she had a stroke and died. Everyone was saddened by her death. David was disconsolate. His life ­long friend was now gone.

A) Devastated B) Hilarious
C) Exuberant D) Sombre

Q:

3 functions of the nervous system?

Answer

The nervous system is the part of an animal that coordinates its actions by transmitting signals to and from different parts of its body.


 


In vertebrates it consists of two main parts, the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The CNS consists of the brain and spinal cord. The PNS consists mainly of nerves, which are enclosed bundles of the long fibers or axons, that connect the CNS to every other part of the body.


 


The nervous system has three main functions:


* To collect sensory input from the body and external environment.


* To process and interpret the sensory input.


* To respond appropriately to the sensory input.
