Peripheral System
PNS stands for Peripheral Nervous System. The PNS connects the Central Nervous System (in the brain and spinal cord) to the rest of the body. It is divided into the somatic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system.
Peripheral nervous system
The central nervous system is responsible for coordinating all the information that is received from the body, whereas the peripheral nervous system connects the central system to the organs and limbs, relaying communication to and fro.

Central Nervous System and Peripheral Nervous System
The peripheral nervous system carries impulses between the spinal cord and other body parts.
The nervous system is made up of the brain, the spinal cord, and all of the nerves in your body. Your nervous system detects and responds to changes inside and outside your body. First the nervous system receives information about the environment or other parts of the body. Then it interprets the information. Finally, it responds to information.
They belong to the peripheral nervous system, as opposed to the central nervous system (as they are to be found on the periphery of the body).
