- In life, there are certain changes in the environment called ‘stimuli’ to which we respond appropriately. Touching a flame suddenly is a dangerous situation for us. One way is to think consciously about the possibility of burning and then moving the hand. But our body has been designed in such a way that we save ourself from such situations immediately.
Name the action by which we protect ourselves in the situation mentioned above and define it.- CBSE Class X - 2025

Nervous System
The nervous system, often known as the neural system, is a sophisticated network of neurons dedicated to the transmission of messages. As we progress up the food chain, the neurological system becomes more sophisticated.
Functions of Nervous System:
The nervous system's most basic job is to govern the organism's movement and to influence the environment (e.g., through pheromones). This is accomplished by transmitting signals from one cell to another, or from one body component to another. Signals that travel to muscle cells cause muscles to contract, and signals that travel to endocrine cells cause hormones to be released into the circulation or other internal fluids to cause the nervous system's output.
