How do your CNS and PNS work together?

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.
What is the relationship between the CNS and the PNS?
The central nervous system (CNS), which includes the brain and spinal cord, processes and integrates information, while the peripheral nervous system (PNS) connects the CNS to the rest of the body, including limbs and organs. The PNS transmits sensory information to the CNS and carries motor commands from the CNS to muscles and glands. Together, they coordinate and regulate bodily functions and responses to the environment. This interaction ensures that the body can effectively respond to stimuli and maintain homeostasis.
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.
What connects the cns to the pns?
The central nervous system (CNS) is connected to the peripheral nervous system (PNS) through spinal nerves and cranial nerves. These nerves serve as pathways for transmitting signals between the brain and spinal cord (CNS) and the rest of the body (PNS). The spinal cord relays information to and from the body, while cranial nerves facilitate communication between the brain and structures in the head and neck. This connection allows for coordinated bodily functions and responses to stimuli.
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 is the difference between the myelin in the cns versus myelin in the pns?

What is the difference between clusters of cell bodies called nuclei and those know as ganglia?
Nuclie are in the CNS, while ganglia are in the PNS.
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.
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 the nerves in the PNS do?
The PNS gathers all outside and foreign information and directs it to the CNS.

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.

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.
