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.

Brain and spinal cord compose the central nervous system (CNS).All the nerves that innervate everything outside of your CNS is your peripheral nervous system (PNS).


What are three things in the nervous system?

The nervous system is broken into the central and autonomic nervous systems. The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord. The autonomic nervous system contains the peripheral nerves.


What is the main functions in the nervous system?

The nervous systemThe nervous system is responsible for coordinating all of the body's activities. It controls not only the maintenance of normal functions but also the body's ability to cope with emergency situations.FunctionThe nervous system has three general functions: a sensory function, an interpretative function and a motor function. Sensory nerves gather information from inside the body and the outside environment. The nerves then carry the information to central nervous system (CNS).Sensory information brought to the CNS is processed and interpreted.Motor nerves convey information from the CNS to the muscles and the glands of the body.


What organ are involved in the nervous system?

Organs involved in the nervous system are - Brain 🧠 -> Central Nervous System (CNS) Spinal Cord -> Peripheral Nervous System Nerves -> Peripheral Nervous System

What are the nerves outside the brain and spinal cord?

The peripheral nervous system contains all the nerves in the body that lie outside of the spinal cord and brain.They communicate with the central nervous system to make sure our body parts, such as our fingers, can send signals to the central nervous system for processing in our brains.


Nerves that carry impulses toward the Central Nervous system only are?

Sensory neurons are nerves that carry electrical signals only toward the Central Nervous System. These nerves are found in the ganglia.


The cranial and spinal nerves form what nervous system?

the peripheral nervous system


compare the central and the peripheral nervous system?

The Central nervous system includes the brain and spinal cord.The brain is the control center for all activities in the body.It is made of billions of neurons. The spinal cord is made up of bundles of neurons.Sensory neurons send impulse to the brain.All the nerves outside CNS ( Central Nervous System) that connects the brain and spinal cord to other body parts are part of the Peripheral nervous system. The Peripheral nervous system includes 12 pairs of nerves from your brain called cranial nerves, and 31 pairs of nerves from your spinal cord called Spinal nerves.


What nerves are not apart of the central nervous system?

There are only two nervous systems, Central and Peripheral. So Peripheral is your answer
