What else can I help you with?
List the structures of the CNS and PNS?
Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)Contains all nerves outside of the brain & spinal cord.Somatic Nervous System (Voluntary)Two types: Sensory (or afferent) and motor (or efferent) nerves
How do the CNS and the PNS interact?
The central nervous system (CNS) consists of the brain and spinal cord, while the peripheral nervous system (PNS) includes nerves outside of the CNS. The PNS relays information to and from the CNS through sensory and motor neurons. The CNS processes the information and sends out responses through the PNS to regulate activities in the body.
What is the structural difference between the CNS and the PNS?
The central nervous system (CNS) consists of the brain and spinal cord, while the peripheral nervous system (PNS) includes nerves outside of the CNS. The CNS acts as the main control center, while the PNS connects the CNS to the rest of the body.
Myelinated regions of the CNS are referred to as?
White matter in the CNS is predominantly composed of myelinated axons.
Which neuron is located entirely within the cns?
Interneurons are neurons that are entirely located within the central nervous system (CNS). They act as a bridge between sensory and motor neurons, integrating and transmitting signals within the CNS.
Where do all of the structures in the cns originate from?
Neural Tube
Which pathways comprise the autonomic nervous system?
two-neuron chain from CNS to effector organs. Parasympathetic and Sympathetic.
What forms liquid cushion for the cns structures?
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) forms a liquid cushion around the central nervous system (CNS) structures, including the brain and spinal cord. CSF provides buoyancy, protection, and nutrient delivery to these structures. It also helps to remove waste products and maintain appropriate pressure within the CNS.
What are located and protected within the CNS?
The 2 primary structures of the CNS are:The brain, housed in and protected by the skullThe spinal cord, housed in and protected by the vertebral column.
What are two structures of the central nervous system?
The CNS is made up of the brain and the spinal cord.
What two structures are apart of the central nervous system?
The CNS is made up of the brain and the spinal cord.
List the structures of the CNS and PNS?
Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)Contains all nerves outside of the brain & spinal cord.Somatic Nervous System (Voluntary)Two types: Sensory (or afferent) and motor (or efferent) nerves
What is the brain and spinal cord collectively called?
The Brain and Spinal Chord comprise the Central Nervous System.
Angiosperms comprise roughly what percent of terrestrial plant species?
Angiosperms comprise about 80-90% of terrestrial plant species. They are the most diverse group of land plants and are characterized by their flowers, which are reproductive structures that contain seeds.
The parts of the peripheral nervous system?
Since the brain and spinal cord comprise the Central Nervous System (CNS) everything else is in the Peripheral Nervous System. Sensory neurons, motor neurons, and interneurons are all components.
What is the difference betweent the cns and the peripheral nervous system?
The simple answer is that the cns center is located in the brain and spinal cord, protected by bone structures, while the pns is is broken down into two parts, the somatic nervous system, and the autonomic nervous system. It is located in nerves that connect to the nerves of the cns and is not protected by your bones. Pns is what controls your breathing, heart beat, and movement, while also directly communicating with the cns. The cns is responsible for things like perception and processing of sensory stimuli. This is just the very surface of your complex question, but I hope it helps.
What is a CNS and what do they do?
coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS)
