What is the nervous system subdivision that is composed of the cranial spinal nerves and the ganglia?
Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) original answer by btbchris
What is the PNS made up of?
it is made up by nerves and associated cells that are not part of the brain and the spinal cord, included here are cranial nerves that pass through openings in the skull and stimulate regions of the head and neck, spinal nerves, and ganglia(ganglia are collections of nerve cell bodies).
What are the major nerves in your nervous system?
Cranial nerves and spinal nerves.
What are small groups of nerves outside the brain and spinal cord?
Ganglion or ganglia .
What part of the nervous system consists of all of the spinal nerves and cranial nerves is the?
Peripheral nervous system consist of all of the Cranial nerves and Spinal nerves. This division is Anatomical and not Physiological.
Is true Both spinal and cranial nerves have dorsal and ventral roots?
Dorsal and ventral roots are a feature of spinal nerves only. Cranial nerves do not have dorsal and ventral roots.
Are ganglia part of the central nervous system?
Yes, the PNS contains ganglia, cranial nerves, and spinal nerves.
The system is formed by spinal and cranial nerves?
somatic
Do cranial nerves belong to the CNS?
Yes, central nervous system is your brain and spinal cord. Cranial nerves arises from your brain stem in your midbrian/pons/medulla.
Does the nerve going to the eyebrow go to the spinal cord?
There are 31 pairs of spinal nerves which originate in the spinal cord. There are twelve cranial nerves, which are referred to by Roman numerals. Ten of the twelve cranial nerves originate from the brainstem; the other two stem from the forebrain and thalamus. The nerve that is responsible for eyebrow movement is the VII cranial nerve, also known as the facial nerve. This is one of the ten cranial nerves originating from the brainstem.
Where are neurons found in the human body apart from the brain and spinal cord?
