Draw a flowchart that explains how tom’s nervous system controls his actions. as part of the flowchart, write one or two sentences describing how the nervous system is involved in each of these steps: tom steps into the haunted house. tom feels his heart pumping and his breathing speed up. tom jumps when he sees the costumed character. tom runs out of the haunted house.

The nervous system help the body to respond to different stimuli because its function is to coordinate with all the body parts. It has four primary functions that relate to the areas of the body in every human being for which the system handles information. The sensory function allows the body to collect information from outside or within the body.

Tom steps into the haunted house- the brain receives information from different parts of the brain and interprets it to generate the emotion of fear and then sends impulses to different parts of the body to trigger a flight response. Organisms that fear and make a flight response are more likely to survive. Later then the nervous system interprets the information to the brain through the spinal cord.

Tom feels his heart pumping and his breathing speed up because of the sympathetic nervous system stimulates adrenal glands that trigger and releases adrenaline which results in an increase in heart rate, blood pressure, and breathing rate. The integrative function is about how the collected information is being interpreted in Tom.

Tom jumps when he sees the costumed character. This is due to flight response in an individual, unleashes powerful hormones are released that affect the whole body from which signals are transferred to the brain and then it causes an involuntary jump in the muscles of the individual. The reasoning of this is that Tom's brain responses in a shock when he sees the character.

Tom runs out of the haunted house The reason of this is that Tom runs when the brain makes his muscles move by sending electrical signals to them through the nerves and this kind of involuntary actions happen really quickly so that the action takes place faster. At last, the nervous system helps to determine the motor function in which the effectors are able to respond.

Draw a flowchart that explains how Tom’s nervous system controls his actions. As part of the flowchart, write one or two sentences describing how the nervous system is involved in each of these steps:

1) Tom steps into the haunted house.

2) Tom feels his heart pumping and his breathing speed up.

3) Tom jumps when he sees the costumed character.

4) Tom runs out of the haunted house.

The

Tom’s brain makes a voluntary decision to walk into the haunted house. His brain communicates  this message to his skeletal muscles, so he can step inside.

Tom’s sympathetic nervous system causes a fight or flight response, resulting in his increased  heart rate and breathing.

Tom is startled when a costumed character jumps out at him. His reaction is a reflex caused  by his nervous system.

Tom’s brain makes a voluntary decision to run out of the haunted house. His brain communicates  this message to his skeletal muscles.

the answer is c because it is most logical.
