ReceptorReceptor
Body structure that monitors Body structure that monitors changes in a controlled condition and changes in a controlled condition and sends information called the input (in sends information called the input (in the form of a nerve impulse or the form of a nerve impulse or chemical signal) to a control centerchemical signal) to a control center– Ex: Camera- this camera records a Ex: Camera- this camera records a
touchdown pass at the edge of the touchdown pass at the edge of the endzone with less than two minutes left endzone with less than two minutes left in the quarter. This video gets sent to in the quarter. This video gets sent to the booth for review…the booth for review…
Control CenterControl CenterBody sets the range of values within which Body sets the range of values within which a controlled condition should be a controlled condition should be maintained, evaluates the input it receives maintained, evaluates the input it receives from its receptors, and generates output from its receptors, and generates output (information in the form of nerve impulses (information in the form of nerve impulses or chemical signals, that is relayed from or chemical signals, that is relayed from the control center to an effector) the control center to an effector) commands when neededcommands when needed– Ex: People in Booth- they watch the video the Ex: People in Booth- they watch the video the
camera recorded and decide if the player was camera recorded and decide if the player was inbounds or out of bounds…inbounds or out of bounds…
EffectorEffector
Body structure that receives output Body structure that receives output from the control center, produces a from the control center, produces a response or effect that changes the response or effect that changes the controlled conditionscontrolled conditions– Ex: Referee- the ref gets a message Ex: Referee- the ref gets a message
from the booth saying whether the from the booth saying whether the player was inbounds or out of bounds player was inbounds or out of bounds resulting in a touchdown or an resulting in a touchdown or an incomplete pass.incomplete pass.
