The nervous system is? The master controlling and communicating system of the body The three functions of the nervous system are? 1. Sensory input 2. Integration 3. Motor output The sensory input gathers information by the internal and external sensory receptors The integration function processes and interprets the sensory input The motor output function activates the effector organs (muscles and glads) and produces the appropriate response The central nervous system is composed of? The ...
