Central Nervous System?
for the nerves the peripheral nervous system, for your brain and spinal cord the cental nervous system.
There are 31 pairs of nerves that leave the central nervous system - 12 pairs of cranial nerves that exit from the brain and 31 pairs of spinal nerves that exit from the spinal cord.
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.
Nerves are classified based on their structure and function. Structurally, they can be categorized into cranial nerves, which emerge from the brain, and spinal nerves, which arise from the spinal cord. Functionally, they are divided into sensory (afferent) nerves that carry signals to the central nervous system, motor (efferent) nerves that transmit signals from the central nervous system to muscles, and mixed nerves that contain both sensory and motor fibers.
The peripheral nervous system has two main systems that use cranial and spinal nerves: the somatic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system. The somatic nervous system controls voluntary movements and sensations, while the autonomic nervous system controls involuntary processes such as heart rate, digestion, and respiration.

Central Nervous System
Cranial nerves and spinal nerves.
The peripheral nervous system consists of all the spinal nerves and cranial nerves. These nerves connect the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) to the rest of the body, allowing for communication and control of bodily functions.

Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) original answer by btbchris
In the nerves of the peripheral nervous system; 12 cranial nerves and 31 spinal nerves.
Yes, cranial nerves are considered part of the CNS because they arise directly from the brain rather than the spinal cord. They play a crucial role in sensory and motor functions of the head and neck.
Peripheral nervous system
peripheralThe central nervous system is composed of the brain and spinal cord, A.
it is made up by nerves and associated cells that are not part of the brain and the spinal cord, included here are cranial nerves that pass through openings in the skull and stimulate regions of the head and neck, spinal nerves, and ganglia(ganglia are collections of nerve cell bodies).
