I hope that you know a little more about the nervous system.
While learning about this system, I learned that there aredifferent systems that work very hard each day to help yousurvive and live a happy life. This makes me realize that thereare much more organs than just bones and muscles in your
body. This experience taught me all about my body and allthe process it does each day of my life. Now I know that mybrain controls all my systems and that to protect it I shouldwear a helmet and do other things to protect the nervoussystem. This research taught me about the importance of my
nervous system.
