Cells, Tissues and Body Systems P2 Nervous Tissue A number of components make up the nervous system and these are also composed of the nervous tissue. The nervous tissue performs an imperative part in the fact that it is in charge for accepting, distributing and handling sensory input. It can be found in the three main areas of the nervous system which are the brain, nerves and the spinal cord. The nervous system contains two significant parts which are defined as peripheral and central.

Heart Essay When a performer starts to exercise, they inevitably increase rate of respiration, meaning they require more glucose and oxygen (if aerobic) and need to primarily remove more carbon dioxide as well as lactic acid (if anaerobic). The first way this is done is by secretion of the hormone adrenaline into the bloodstream. Adrenaline in blood is picked up by chemoreceptors in the aortic arch, impulses are then sent to cardiac control centre (in the medulla oblongata) via sympathic nerve
