Bacterial Infections of the Nervous System. 1. Bacterial Meningitis. A) Although bacteria can infect the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves, they more commonly infect the meninges and cerebrospinal fluids resulting in meningitis. NERVOUS SYSTEM. NERVOUS SYSTEMS RECEIVE SENSORY INPUT, INTEPRET IT, AND SENT OUT APPROPRIATE COMMANDS. NERVOUS SYSTEMS. MOST INTRICATELY ORGANIZED DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM ON EARTH. NEURON. FUNCTIONAL UNIT; SPECIALIZED NERVE CELL FOR CARRYING SIGNALS FROM ONE LOCATION IN THE BODY TO ANOTHER. Structure and Function. 2. Input. (sensation). Output. (action). In order to understand behavior, we must understand the operating mechanism of the nervous system. What is the function of the nervous system?. A. Bacterial Infections of the Nervous System. 1.

Provides a two-way conduction pathway from the brain to and from the brain. 31 pairs of spinal nerves arise from the spinal cord.
