Act 1 2
Summary
TLDRToday's biology class focuses on Chapter 4: Nervous Communication. Students are instructed to prepare their materials and open their books to page 64. The lesson covers the organization of the nervous system in vertebrates and invertebrates. Vertebrates, which include mammals, birds, fish, reptiles, and amphibians, share a similar nervous system structure with a brain, spinal cord, and nerves protected by the skull and vertebral column. In contrast, invertebrates, such as insects and worms, lack a vertebral column and have a nervous system composed of a ventral chain of ganglia. The lesson concludes with a comparison of the two systems, highlighting the central and peripheral nervous system components and their differences.

Outlines
🧠 Understanding the Vertebrate Nervous System
This section of the video script introduces the topic of nervous communication, focusing on the organization of the nervous system in vertebrates. It begins with a directive for students to prepare their materials and open their biology books to page 64. The instructor outlines the objectives, which include defining vertebrates, listing the parts of the nervous system, and understanding that the nervous system's organization is consistent across vertebrates. The script explains that vertebrates, which include mammals, birds, fish, reptiles, and amphibians, have an internal skeleton and thus a vertebral column. The nervous system of vertebrates is detailed, highlighting the brain, spinal cord, and nerves as the main components. The brain is further divided into the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brainstem. The script emphasizes that these structures are protected by the skull and vertebral column, respectively. The central nervous system (CNS) is composed of the brain and spinal cord, while the peripheral nervous system (PNS) consists of the nerves. The video also explains the difference between spinal and cranial nerves, with 31 pairs of spinal nerves and 12 pairs of cranial nerves.
🦐 Exploring the Invertebrate Nervous System
The second part of the video script contrasts the organization of the nervous system in invertebrates with that of vertebrates. Invertebrates, which make up 97% of animals and include creatures like insects and worms, lack a vertebral column and thus a spinal cord. The script uses the shrimp as an example to illustrate the nervous system of an invertebrate, which consists of a chain of ganglia along the midline of the animal. The nervous system of invertebrates is described as having a central part made up of ganglia, with the peripheral nervous system being composed of nerves. The video script points out that invertebrates do not share a uniform organization of their nervous systems, as seen in the variety of ganglia among different species. The section concludes with an evaluation task for students, asking them to compare the nervous systems of vertebrates and invertebrates, noting both similarities and differences. Similarities include the presence of a central and peripheral nervous system, with nerves in the peripheral part, while differences highlight the distinct central nervous system structures: a brain and spinal cord in vertebrates versus a chain of ganglia in invertebrates.

good morning dear students today the
first period of biology we have to start
by the chapter 4 in your books about the
nervous communication
we have to start by the activities 1 and
2
about the organization of the nervous
system and the vertebrates and
invertebrates
first of all you have to prepare your
notebook and the pen
your phone or laptop of course and to
open your biology book on the page
64.
many object objectives have to be
covered
first we have to define the vertebrates
and to list the different parts of the
nervous system and the organs that
protect this part
then we have to deduce that the
organization of the nervous system is
almost
the same in all the vertebrates the
second part of the video we have to
define the invertebrates and to deduce
that the organization of the nervous
system is not the same
first of all
animals are classified into two
categories we have vertebrate and we
have invertebrate the vertebrate
includes five classes the mammals
birds
fish
reptiles and amphibians why the
invertebrates we have millions of
examples like the insects and worms
let's start by the vertebrates observe
this figure
if we look to these four examples of
animals we notice that
all of them have bones
they have internal skeleton
so these are vertebrates
they represent three percent of animals
only
all of them have internal skeleton
bones vertebral columns we have to
insist on the nervous system of a human
which is an example of vertebrates
as
many systems as all systems the nervous
system is a system so it's made up of
organs but what are the organs that make
the nervous system
first we have the brain
then we have the spinal cord
and we have many nerves so we have one
brain one spinal cord and many nerves
throughout the body first these are five
examples of vertebrates
all of them have a brain
all of them have a spinal cord so as a
conclusion all the vertebrates share
almost the same organization of the
nervous system any vertebrate has a
brain any vertebrate has a spinal cord
any vertebrate has nerves
first brain means encephalone so we can
say brain or we can say encephalon if we
make a zoom in on the brain
we notice that the brain is not one part
it's made up of three parts the first
one is the cerebrum the second one the
cerebellum and the third one is the
brainstem or the middle oblongata
if we look to the brain
it's not free in our head
we have
something called skull made up of bones
so the brain is protected by the skull
so for example is if we fall down we
don't damage our brain directly the
brain should be protected by the skull
same as for the spinal cord the spinal
cord at the level of the back is not
free it should be protected by the
vertebral column
as a summary a concept map showing the
nervous system of vertebrate
the nervous system
of vertebrate is made up as we said of
three main organs the brain
the spinal cord and the nerves
while we notice that the brain and the
spinal cord together make the central
nervous system they are the centers of
the nervous system
why the nerves alone make up the
peripheral nervous system the peripheral
nervous system is everything outside the
brain and the spinal cord it serves as a
relay between brain spinal cord and the
rest of the body
and the brain is made up of three parts
cerebrum cerebellum and medulla
oblongata
while
we have two types of nerves we have
nerves called spinal nerves
which arise directly from the spinal
cord they are 31 pairs and we have
nerves that arise directly from the
brain which are called cranial nerves
and these are 12 pairs of cranial nerves
so the nerves we have two types
the first type of nerves 31 pairs arise
from the spinal cord and 12 pairs arise
directly from the brain
now the second part of the video about
the nervous system of the invertebrates
what are the invertebrates look to these
four examples
do they have skeleton do they have bones
do they have vertebral column no
so the invertebrates they make the rest
97 of animals they have no vertebral
column no backbone so they have no
spinal cord
this is the nervous system of a shrimp
which is an example of invertebrate if
we look to this nervous system
after the dissection it's made up of a
chain of
ganglia the ventral chain of ganglia
along the animal midline
this is the nervous system of
invertebrates or of the sonum is made up
of a chain of ganglia
it's a ventral chain of ganglia the
white one here
so
from the book the nervous system of the
shrimp is made up of ganglia
above the osophagus one under it and we
have three thoracic ganglia and six
abdominal ganglia it's the example of
the shrimp only not all invertebrates
same
we have
a small concept map the nervous system
like that of vertebrate is made up of
central and peripheral part
while here the central part is not made
of brain and spinal cord it's made up of
ganglia for the shrimp we have two
esophageal three thoracic and six
abdominal and the peripheral nervous
system is made up of nerves
if we compare the nervous system of
these six examples of invertebrates
look to this figure
do they have the same organization of
the nervous system
no they don't have the same nervous
system they don't have the same number
of ganglia so the invertebrates
don't share the same organization of
nervous system it's different from one
group to another
it's the end we have to make a small
evaluation to compare the nervous system
of vertebrates to that of invertebrates
so you have to pause the video and to
think before answering compare means you
have to mention the similarities between
these two nervous systems and the
differences so the similarities between
the nervous system of vertebrates and
invertebrates
first
the nervous system is made up of central
and peripheral nervous system
and the peripheral nervous system in
both of them is made up of nerves while
the differences
the central nervous system of
vertebrates is made up of brain and
spinal cord while that of shrimp is made
up of a chain of ganglion
