This detailed lesson looks at the structural organisation of the mammalian nervous system into the CNS and the PNS as detailed in point 5.1.5 (g) of the OCR A-level Biology A specification. Students will see how the PNS is divided into the sensory and motor systems and then further divided into the somatic and autonomic nervous systems. Prior knowledge checks are included throughout the lesson to make links to earlier topics such as the structure of neurones and the function of the hypothalamus in thermoregulation and osmoregulation.
This lesson has been designed to tie in with the uploaded lesson on the autonomic nervous system which is also covered in specification point 5.1.5 (g)

A bundle is a package of resources grouped together to teach a particular topic, or a series of lessons, in one place.
Module 5.1.5: Plant and animal responses (OCR A-level Biology A)
All 11 lessons included in this bundle are detailed and contain a wide variety of tasks to challenge and engage the students whilst covering this potentially difficult topic. The content of this module, titled plant and animal responses, is regularly assessed in the PAPER 1 and 3 OCR examinations, so these lessons have been filled with assessment-style questions to continually expose the students to this type of material. The following specification points are covered by this bundle: 5.1.5 a, b, d, g, h, i, k, and l. If you would like to sample the quality of the lessons before committing to the bundle, then why not download the role of plant hormones, organisation of the nervous system and sliding filament theory lessons, as these have been shared for free?
Animal responses (OCR A-level biology A)
This bundle of 8 lessons are packed with a wide variety of tasks that will engage and challenge the students whilst covering the content of the animal responses section of module 5.1.5 of the OCR A-level biology A specification. The lessons specifically cover points 5.1.5 (g, h, i, k and l). If you want to sample the quality of lessons in this bundle, then why not download the sliding filament model of muscular contraction lesson as this has been shared for free?
