What is the function of the Brain? What does it do and how does it do it? It functions as a Neuroregulator, which continuously regulates the Autonomic Nervous System and Physiological Systems, and enables us to Recognise that Sleep Exhibits the Characteristics of a Neurally Regulated Physiological System
Abstract:The aim of this article is to provoke further discussion of the mechanisms which the brain uses to regulate the body's function, in particular the autonomic nervous system. It focuses upon an understanding of the structural relationship between the brain, organ networks (more commonly referred to as physiological systems), organs and cellular and molecular biology, brain and illustrates (i) that sleep exhibits the characteristics of a physiological system; (ii) that the brain uses colour and frequency to regul… Show more
