Sensory receptors
Sensory receptors
The somatic nervous system is a component of the peripheral nervous system. This system is responsible for voluntary movements and sensory information.
Yes
The peripheral nervous system (PNS) makes contact with the environment. It includes sensory receptors that detect stimuli like touch, temperature, and pain, transmitting this information to the central nervous system for processing.
Partly the Cranial nerve and partly the spinal chord. also known as the peripheral nervous system
The brain is the most inclusive component of the nervous system, as it integrates sensory information, enables thinking, emotions, and behavior, and controls bodily functions. It coordinates all activities within the body and is responsible for processing and interpreting signals from the environment.
Information entering the central nervous system from the external environment is called external stimuli. External stimuli are factors which are detected by the body and communicated to the central nervous system such as temperature and scents.
The nervous system processes and analyzes information received from the body's sensory receptors. This information is then used to initiate appropriate responses or actions to maintain homeostasis and respond to the environment.
To get information from the environment.
The central nervous system consists of the brain and the spinal cord. It essentially integrates the information it receives from all parts of the human body.
sympathetic nervous system.
Information about the environment comes from the senses to the brain via the nervous system.
