What part of the peripheral nervous system carries the sensory and motor information to and from the central nervous system?
You have thousands of nerves that are part of the PNS.
Divisions of the peripheral nervous system include the afferent (sensory) division and the efferent (motor) division. The nerves coming from all the senses and the nerves going to glands and muscles are included.
The efferent division is divided further into the somatic motor nervous system and the
somatic nervous system which includes all voluntary motor pathways outside the central nervous system.
What else can I help you with?
Which structure carries sensory information?
the dorsal horn is involved in sensory functions
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.
All nervous tissue outside of the central nervous system is part of this nervous system?
The peripheral nervous system is made up of all the nerves outside the central nervous system.
What are the major components of the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system?
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)
How do the central and peripheral systems differ?
The peripheral nervous system (PNS) resides or extends outside the central nervous system (CNS), which consists of the brain and spinal cord. The main function of the PNS is to connect the CNS to the limbs and organs, while the CNS provides coordination for the rest of the body.
Which part of the nervous system carries impulses between the body and the central?
The peripheral nervous system carries impulses between the spinal cord and other body parts.
What carries messages from the central nervous system to the other parts of the body?
peripheral nervous system
Is this correct the autonomic nervous system activates the body while the peripheral nervous system restores normal functioning?
The automatic nervous system triggers the "fight or flight" response in the nervous system while the peripheral nervous system carries information to and from the central nervous system.
What are two main jobs of the nervous system?
The nervous system takes in sensory information from the peripheral nervous system. This information is then directed to the central nervous system which then responds with a motor reaction that travels back to the peripheral nervous system.
What carry instructions from the central nervous system to effector organs?
Motor neurons carry instructions from the central nervous system to effector organs. They are a part of the peripheral nervous system and transmit signals to muscles and glands, causing them to contract or secrete in response to stimuli.
Carries messages from the central neurons to other parts of the body?
peripheral nervous system
Which structure carries sensory information?
the dorsal horn is involved in sensory functions
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 cranial and spinal nerves form what nervous system?
the peripheral nervous system
How are the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system related?
The two work together. The central nervous system is comprised of the brain and the spinal cord; the peripheral nervous system is comprised of all the nerves and ganglia outside the brain and spinal cord.The peripheral nervous system sends sensory information to the central nervous system, which assesses that information, and then sends motor control signals back down the peripheral nervous system to cause the body to act in relation to the information or events sensed.
The nervous system is divided into which two subsystems?
The Central Nervous System and Peripheral Nervous system
What nervous system carries brain and spinal cord signals to other organs?
It is the central nervous system
