What body system connects tissues and organs to the brain?

The brain belongs to the Central Nervous System(CNS) of the human Nervous System.


What do PNS motor neurons do?

Peripheral nervous system (PNS) motor neurons are responsible for controlling voluntary movements of skeletal muscles. They receive signals from the central nervous system (CNS) and transmit them to the muscles to initiate movement. PNS motor neurons are essential for activities like walking, talking, and grabbing objects.


What does the motor division of the PNS do?

The motor division of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) is responsible for transmitting signals from the central nervous system (CNS) to various muscles and glands throughout the body. It can be further divided into the somatic nervous system, which controls voluntary movements of skeletal muscles, and the autonomic nervous system, which regulates involuntary functions such as heart rate and digestion. By coordinating these activities, the motor division plays a crucial role in facilitating movement and maintaining homeostasis.


Which system innervates skeletal muscles?

What nerves supply voluntary sketal muscles


Does the sensory afferent division conveys impulses away from the central nervous system?

No, the sensory afferent division conveys impulses towards the central nervous system. Afferent neurons transmit sensory signals from sensory receptors to the central nervous system, whereas efferent neurons carry signals away from the central nervous system to muscles and glands.

Do the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system function independently of one another?

No, the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system (nerves outside the central nervous system) work together to coordinate communication throughout the body. The central nervous system processes information and sends commands to the peripheral nervous system to carry out responses.

Voluntary muscles are controlled by which nervous system?

Voluntary muscles are controlled by the central nervous system.


How will you differentiate the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system in terms of their functions?

The central nervous system is responsible for coordinating all the information that is received from the body, whereas the peripheral nervous system connects the central system to the organs and limbs, relaying communication to and fro.


What does peripheral system means?

The peripheral nervous system connects the organs and limbs to the central nervous system, or the spinal chord and brain.
