To date, no credible answer has been found to this question. There is no apparent single location in the brain where the huge amount of information coming from body and discrete areas of brain are integrated. Though much is known about the function of different parts of the brain, and the blueprint is the same for every human being under the sun, the way that it is all put together to achieve consciousness of different stimuli simultaneously is not understood. This is one of the central puzzles of modern neuroscience, and a hot area of research.

How will you differentiate the central nervous system from the peripheral nervous system?

The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord and is responsible for processing and integrating information. The peripheral nervous system includes all nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord, serving to transmit sensory and motor information to and from the central nervous system.
