Let’s Work Together Dealing with people at work is perhaps one of the most difficult challenges a person will ever face due to the many differences in culture‚ gender‚ and personalities. The same applies to life outside work because our society is so much integrated and diversified compared to‚ say 50 years ago. Neighborhoods have changed and we see the obvious cultural and gender integration‚ such as the opposite gender taking a line of work that once used to be strictly for the other gender

Central Nervous System: The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord. The brain controls bodily functions. The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain in humans. The cerebrum is the last place that information travels through in the brain. The spinal cord is the part of the body that communicates between the brain and the nerves that connect to the spinal cord. The spinal cord is commonly known as a pathway from the brain to the body. Peripheral Nervous System: The peripheral

The nervous system is one of the smallest yet one of the‚ if not the most‚ complex systems in the human body. It can be broken down into two main subdivisions‚ the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The central nervous system contains about 85 billion neurons and includes the spinal cord and brain. It is considered the control center of the body and processes all types of incoming sensory information. The peripheral nervous system is composed of all the other tissue

Page 1 of 5 The Brain and the Nervous System The human brain and the nervous system are essential for human life. They run the autonomic and conscious processes of the body. All of the body organs and processes independent that not conscious of are controlled by the brain. Being one of the most important of the body when issues there must be immediate solutions or the entire body will shut down. The brain is fragile and has huge functions in the body so it must be taken care of‚ but if not

The central nervous system (CNS) is that portion of the vertebrae nervous system that is composed of the brain and spinal cord. Together with the peripheral nervous system (PNS)‚ the other major portion of the nervous system‚ the CNS coordinates the body’s interaction with the environment. The CNS is contained within the dorsal cavity‚ with the brain in the cranial subcavity (the skull)‚ and the spinal cord in the spinal cavity (within the vertebral column). Then human nervous system is the most

The divisions of the nervous system are the Central Nervous System (CNS) and the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS). The CNS is made of two parts the brain and the spinal cord. The PNS is made up the Somatic nervous system and the automatic system. The somatic nervous contains the peripheral nerve fibers that deliver sensory information to the CNS and motor nerve fibers that go to the skeletal muscle. The central nervous system sends messages from the brain to the rest of the body. (Divisions of The
