__Wiki Post # 3 Body Systems Jan 12th 2013__ __** Nervous System **__ The nervous system is all kinds of nerves that send signals to and from your brain and spinal cord to different body parts. For example are touching a hot surface. Usually if you touch a hot stove for instance you immediate response is to remove it, its hot. During that short time span your brain received messages saying its hot remove it now! The nervous system is dived into two individual systems, the central and Peripheral nervous system. The Central nervous system is made up of the brain and spinal chord and The Peripheral nervous system is made up of somatic and Automatic nervous systems. media type="youtube" key="dOYOdJG0E0s" height="315" width="560" This video explain the divisions of the the nervous system like I stated above.

The biggest part of the brain is the **cerebrum**. The cerebellum is the thinking part of your brain which also controls your muscles. Only the ones that move when you want to. For example you cannot play soccer and kick the ball without you cerebrum.
 * The different parts of the brain **

This is a picture of the cerebrum.

The next part is the **Cerebellum**. Which is located at the back of the brain. It controls your balance and movement. Without the cerebellum you would not be able to stand straight. This is a picture of the cerebellum.

**Brain Stem** is next. It controls all the functions you need to live. For example breathing, digesting food and circulating blood. This is a picture of the brain stem.

**Pituitary Gland** This is when girls and guys goes through changes because of the hormones released by the pituitary gland.

**Hypothalamus** controls your temperature. If your too hot than it tells you to seat and if you are too cold than it tells you to shiver. This is a picture of the Hypothalamus.

__Wiki Post__ __ # 2:Evolution January 12th 2013 __ __** Biological Evolution Vs Creation **__ The theory of evolution has caused an argument due to the first introduction up to the present time. The argument is that the biological evolution is at odds with religion concerning the need for a creator. Evolutionists doesn't state whether god exists or not, however they do explain how natural process works. This picture shows how we evolved over the year.

media type="youtube" key="Uz7zh-JCL2E" height="315" width="560" This explain Charles Darwins theory.

Evolution contradicts certain aspects of religious beliefs. For example the existence of life for evolution and biblical creation for religion of a powerful god created life.

This diagram shows the proof of each view of how life started.

This issue, two views is the concept of macro evolution. Most evolutionists believe in micro evolution happens. Charles Darwin did believe in micro evolution. This is a picture of charles darwin that spent his life studying evolution. . Macro evolution is the process of evolution that happens on the level of species. This is the complete opposite of god creating the world.

This is an example of micro evolution, the wolf.

__ Wiki Post # 1: Genetics Jan 10th 2013 __ A genetic disorder is a disease that is caused by deformed DNA a person has. Deformity can be between small mutations or larger mutations. There are many genetic disorders. For example there is Down syndrome. Which is basically people who have all or part of a third copy of chromosome 21. Down syndrome is named after John Langdon Down, the British physician who described the syndrome in 1866.

This is a picture of a child with Down syndrome. You can’t they have Down syndrome by the look of their eyes. There are spots visible in the irises of a baby with Down syndrome. This picture points out the difference in the appearance of an average face an a down syndrome face. Another common Genetic Disorders is colorblindness. Which is most common in males but still appear in females. Colorblindness is the lack of ability to see a color or the perceptive of a color.
