Introduction

The nervous system in animals is responsible for control and coordination, which allows them to detect and respond to various stimuli from the environment. This system relies on specialized tissues, including nervous and muscular tissues, to carry out its functions.

Detection of Stimuli

Sense Organs

Sense organs contain specialized nerve cells called receptors, which detect specific types of stimuli.

Examples of sense organs include:

1.Skin: Contains receptors for touch, pain, temperature, and pressure.

2.Eyes: Contain photoreceptors for vision.
