The rest of the nervous system follows the instructions of the main part that makes the decisions. The main part is the brain, spinal cord, and other interneurons. The rest of the nervous system is called the peripheral nervous system and it mainly receives stimuli with sensory neurons, and sends signals for movement with motor neurons.
What else can I help you with?
Division of the nervous system referred to as rest and digest?
parasympathetic nervous system.....
What is the difference between the nervous system and peripheral system?
The central nervous system includes the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system is the rest.
What is the brains function in the nervous system?
The brain is the destination for the information that is gathered by the rest of the nervous system. The nervous system operates a body's essential functions.
When a response to information is initiated the what nervous system carries the response to the rest of the body?
The central nervous system
What nervous system carries the response to the rest of the body when a response to information is initiated?
The central nervous system
What is Term for the parts of the nervous system outside of the brain and spinal cord?
The brain and spinal cord are referred to as the central nervous system; the rest of the nervous system is called the peripheral nervous system.
What is the relationship between the parasympathetic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system?
The parasympathetic nervous system is a division of the autonomic nervous system. It works in opposition to the sympathetic nervous system to regulate bodily functions at rest and promote relaxation.
What tissue makes up the brain and spinal cord?
The spinal cord and the brain make up part of the nervous system called the central nervous system. The rest of the system is made up of the peripheral nervous system.
Which part of the brain sends impulses to the nervous system in time of emergency?
The emergency, or "fight or flight" part of the nervous system is the sympathetic nervous system. The parasympathetic nervous system produces a "rest and digest" response.
The portion of the nervous system away from the central nervous system?
The peripheral nervous system is the portion of the nervous system away from the central nervous system. It consists of nerves that connect the central nervous system to the rest of the body, including sensory and motor neurons. The peripheral nervous system is responsible for transmitting information to and from the central nervous system.
The system passes information from the brain to the rest of the body?
The nervous system.
How does the brain help the nervous system?
The brain is the most important and central organ of the entire nervous system. It receives sensory input (afferent feedback) from the rest of the nervous system, processes information, and produces efferent signals and responses to the rest of the nervous system. Analogous to a computer system, the brain would be the central processing unit.
