Before taking the test
- —Know the reflex arc pathway: Stimulus → Sensory neuron → Spinal cord → Motor neuron → Response (brain informed after)
- —Understand neuron structure and signal transmission across synapses
- —Know three brain regions: Cerebrum (thinking), Cerebellum (balance), Medulla (vital functions)
- —Remember major endocrine glands and their hormones: Pituitary (growth), Thyroid (metabolism), Pancreas (glucose)
- —Understand plant hormone functions: Auxins (elongation), Gibberellins (growth), Cytokinins (division), Ethylene (ripening)
- —Know differences: Phototropism (light response) vs Geotropism (gravity response)
- —Compare nervous system (fast, short-lasting) vs hormonal system (slow, long-lasting)
- —Practice drawing reflex arc and synapse diagrams - these are frequently asked
