The function is to catch/take impulses from the central nervous system and send it to muscles and glands

the somatic system control everything
Unified network of communications, but on an anatomical basis, it is divided into two primary portions. Which peripheral nervous system is the second portion.The spinal cordThe peripheral nervous system consists of autonomic and the somatic nervous systems.
You can take care of the senses and the nervous system by eating foods that are high in B vitamins. These are known to support the nervous system and senses.
It's not, the nervous system is much faster than the endocrine system.The nature of the messages. The nervous system's messages are transported as electrical impulses/neurotransmitters, whereas the endocrine system transports messages as hormonesThe transport of the messages. The messages in the nervous system are transported along the membrane of neurons. The endocrine system transports hormones though the bloodstreamBecause of this, the nervous system usually produces a response within milliseconds, whereas the endocrine system may take seconds to days to respond. The duration of the response also differs between the two systems, the nervous system stops quickly after the stimulant stops, but the endocrine response may continue after the stimulus is removed.
# Motor neurones have cell bodies inside the Central Nervous System (CNS) whilst in sensory neurones the cell body is located outside of the CNS # Motor neurones transmit impulses from the CNS to the effector which brings about a response to the situation, sensory neurones transmit impulses from to the CNS from the receptor. # Sensory neurones transmit impulses as a result of external stimuli such as pressure, light, temperature etc. Motor neurone transmit impulses passed along the CNS to the effector.
CNS = central nervous system (brain and spinal cord)PNS = peripheral nervous system (that part of the nervous system that extends outside the central nervous system)
Pain receptors, also known as nociceptors, detect tissue damage or potentially harmful stimuli, signaling pain responses. Somatic receptors, on the other hand, sense touch, pressure, vibration, temperature, and proprioception to help the body perceive its external environment and respond accordingly. Pain receptors specifically respond to noxious stimuli, while somatic receptors respond to various tactile sensations.
I don't belive you could just turn off your Nervous system. It is allways in action with everything you do.
There are three systems that are involved; the central nervous system, peripheral nervous system, and the endocrine system. The Central Nervous System consists of the brain and spinal cord. The Peripheral Nervous System involves everything else. It is how the brain and the spinal cord connect to everything else. There are two parts to the PNS, the Autonomic Nervous System and the Somatic Nervous System. Autonomic Nervous System deals with all of the visceral muscles, like the heart, arteries, GI tract and glands. It's involved with the sympathetic nervous system, which is an activating system (think "fight or flight"). It is activated when aroused and when there is expenditure of energy; it prepares the body for action. The parasympathetic system of the PNS' autonomic nervous system is the opposite; it deactivates the body, restores its balance, conserves energy, and returns the body to its resting state. Somatic Nervous system of the PNS acts on muscles that are attached to bone. There are motor neurons and sensory neurons involved. The sensory neurons are afferent, meaning they affect and have an influence on the brain. They transmit somatosensory info from the peripheral sensory organs to the CNS. They are the input received; and example would be when you realize you're touching something very hot that is burning you. The motor neurons are efferent, meaning they are the output and they result in muscular activity. They bring informational commands concerning motor from the CNS to the muscles. They cause the muscles to take action, a response action to the example of moving your hand away when you are touching something that's burning you. The PNS transmits a variety of information to the CNS, which then organizes and evaluates that information, and then goes on to direct the PNS to perform specific behaviors or make bodily adjustments. Neurons are specialized for communication. They take in information, integrate it, and then pass the information on to other neurons.
The nervous system consists of the brain, spinal cord, and a complex network of neurons. This system is responsible for sending, receiving, and interpreting information from all parts of the body. The nervous system monitors and coordinates internal organ function and responds to changes in the external environment. This system can be divided into two parts: the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. Let's take a look at the peripheral nervous system.Peripheral Nervous SystemThere are two types of cells in the peripheral nervous system. These cells carry information to (sensory nervous cells) and from (motor nervous cells) the central nervous system (CNS). Cells of the sensory nervous system send information to the CNS from internal organs or from external stimuli. Motor nervous system cells carry information from the CNS to organs, muscles, and glands. The motor nervous system is divided into the somatic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system. The somatic nervous system controls skeletal muscle as well as external sensory organs such as the skin. This system is said to be voluntary because the responses can be controlled consciously. Reflex reactions of skeletal muscle however are an exception. These are involuntary reactions to external stimuli.The autonomic nervous system controls involuntary muscles, such as smooth and cardiac muscle. This system is also called the involuntary nervous system. The autonomic nervous system can further be divided into the parasympathetic and sympathetic divisions.The parasympathetic division controls various functions which include inhibiting heart rate, constricting pupils, and contracting the bladder. The nerves of the sympathetic division often have an opposite effect when they are located within the same organs as parasympathetic nerves. Nerves of the sympathetic division speed up heart rate, dilate pupils, and relax the bladder. The sympathetic system is also involved in the flight or fight response. This is a response to potential danger that results in accelerated heart rate and an increase in metabolic rate.Thats all I know about a nervous system and spinal nerves hope it is helpful.
