What else can I help you with?
What would happen if the CNS and PNS didn't work together?
If the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS) didn't work together, communication between the brain and the rest of the body would be disrupted. This could lead to impaired motor function, sensory perception, and overall coordination of bodily processes. In essence, the body would struggle to efficiently respond to internal and external stimuli.
Are nerves more myelinated or unmyelinated in the CNS?
Nope. They can be found in the PNS as well. The myelinated ones in the CNS are made my Schwann cells. And the ones made in the PNS are made by oligodendrocytes.
Last step of a reflex arc?
PNS delivers motor response from CNS to effectors...
What cells make up the mylin sheath?
There are two cells that are involved in the myelin sheath. One type is found in the central nervous system (CNS) and the other is in the peripheral nervous system (PNS).These are the oligodendrocytes (CNS) and Schwann cells (PNS).
Where in the CNS and PNS is white matter found?
White matter is found in both the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). In the CNS, white matter is located deep in the brain and on the outer part of the spinal cord, consisting of myelinated axons that facilitate communication between different parts of the brain. In the PNS, white matter is present in the nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord, serving to transmit signals between the CNS and the rest of the body.
Is the brain part of the CNS or the PNS?
part of the CNS
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.
What would happen if the CNS and PNS didn't work together?
If the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS) didn't work together, communication between the brain and the rest of the body would be disrupted. This could lead to impaired motor function, sensory perception, and overall coordination of bodily processes. In essence, the body would struggle to efficiently respond to internal and external stimuli.
What do the nerves in the PNS do?
The PNS gathers all outside and foreign information and directs it to the CNS.
What are collections of neurons?
nuclei in the CNS, ganglia in the PNS
How do the function of the CNS and the PNS different?
the PNS helps the body while the other one destroysthe body.
An impulse reaches the CNS from the PNS via the?
An impulse reaches the central nervous system (CNS) from the peripheral nervous system (PNS) through neurons. Sensory neurons in the PNS transmit signals to interneurons in the CNS, which then relay the information to motor neurons to generate a response.
Are nerves more myelinated or unmyelinated in the CNS?
Nope. They can be found in the PNS as well. The myelinated ones in the CNS are made my Schwann cells. And the ones made in the PNS are made by oligodendrocytes.
How do the cenral and peripheral nervous systems work together to keep the body healthy?
The PNS's main job is to send important information gathered by the body's sensory receptors to the CNS as quickly as possible
Are the interneurons in the PNS?
No, interneurons are found in the central nervous system (CNS), not the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The main function of interneurons is to relay signals between sensory neurons and motor neurons in the CNS.
What do CNS and PNS stand for?
CNS stands for Central Nervous System, which includes the brain and spinal cord. PNS stands for Peripheral Nervous System, which includes all the nerves outside of the central nervous system that connect to the rest of the body.
