Control and Coordination

The document discusses control and coordination in living organisms, detailing the roles of the nervous and hormonal systems in animals and plants. It explains the structure and function of neurons, receptors, and the central nervous system, as well as various reflex actions and plant movements in response to stimuli. Additionally, it covers the types of hormones in animals and plants, their functions, and the feedback mechanisms that regulate hormone secretion.

Control

It is the power of restrainingand regulation by which something can be started


slow down or stopped.

Coordination

The working together of various organs of the body of an organism in a proper

manner toproduce aappropriate reaction to a Stimulus, is called Coordination.

Nerve cells are also known as "Neurons".

Receptors

These are specialised - structure which present in cell membrane.

These are usually located in our senseorgans,such as:

(Contain Receptors)

Eyes Nose Tongue Skin


Nervous system

Receptors

These are specialised - structure which present in cell membrane.

These are usually located in our sense organs

Photo receptor Olfactory receptor Gustratory receptor Thermo receptor


"For Vision" "For Smell" "For Taste" "For Sensation"

• These receptors contains specialised neurons,which are responsible for


sending andreceiving messages & necessary informations.
• These receptors and neurons works in co-relation.

•Neurons and receptors are present mostly everywhere in our body.

Coordination in Plants

Plants do not have Nervous or muscular system for coordination.

Coordination in plants is majorly done by Hormones.

Plantsmovement areof 2 types:


O Due tostimulus
Due to growth

What is Stimuli?

Anything that can trigger a physical or behavioural change is called stimuli.

2) Movement due to growth

Plants response to a particular direction for their growth.

hence, Plants growth is directional.

Plants respond toenvironmental triggers such as light, gravity for growth.

Plant Hormone

Plants hormones are also known as Phytohormones.


Plantshormones are divided into 2 types :
1) Growth Promoter hormones

• Plants hormones that promotes growth.


Auxin
This hormone isresponsible for Celelongation inplants.
> It's presence causes cell elongation and hence growth.

Gibberellin Cytokinin
> It Also helps in cell elongation. > Itpromotes cell division,
It stem growth & in flower
helps in seed germination flower

Plants hormones are divided into 2 types:

2) Growth Inhibitor hormones
