The job of the central nervous system is to process and send information to the peripheral nervous system. The nervous system consists of the brain‚ spinal cord and a complex network of neurons. The central nervous system is responsible for receiving‚ sending and interpreting information from the whole body. The nervous system also monitors and coordinates internal organ functions and responds to external changes as they occur. The two main organs of the central nervous system are the brain and spinal

The nervous system is an important part of the human body. The system is made up of many different parts and each part is placed in either the central or peripheral nervous systems. These two parts work together and bring physical feelings and the proper reaction to them. The peripheral nervous system is the larger of the two systems. The peripheral nervous system consists of two more systems inside of it. The two other systems are the somatic and autonomic nervous systems. The somatic nervous system

Central Nervous System In the movie the Wizard of Oz‚ the Scarecrow desperately wanted a brain. He opened his lips‚ blinked his eyes‚ shook his head and said‚ “I haven’t got a brain‚ I’ve only got straw.” The reason for the emphasizing of his actions is because without a brain‚ those functions are not possible.

If you think of the brain as a central computer that controls all the functions of your body‚ then the nervous system is like a network that relays messages back and forth from it to different parts of the body. It does this via the spinal cord‚ which runs from the brain down through the back and contains threadlike nerves that branch out to every organ and body part. When a message comes into the brain from anywhere in the body‚ the brain tells the body how to react. For example‚ if you accidentally

The nervous system comprises the central nervous system which is made up of the brain and spinal cord‚ with the main functions being processing information and determining responses and the peripheral nervous systems which is made up of all sensory‚ motor and inter neurons within the body and these are located on peripheral nerves. All of them work together to collect sensory data and also control the actions of the body. Sensory neurons collect sensory information and convey it to the brain‚ and

It is amazing how some systems in our body works together in situations to help us to have the ability to react and be alert of our surroundings such as being in danger or suffering from stress which is an important factor of many health problems. The two systems that I am referring to are the endocrine and nervous systems. they help to regulate our bodies back to our normal state to help to maintain healthy functioning. There are two systems that work with one another to signal the brain when something
