What system is formed by spinal and cranial nerves?
Central Nervous System?
How many pairs of nerves leave the central 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.
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 has two systems using cranial and spinal nerves?
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.
What nerve is cranial and spinal?
The basic difference between the cranial nerves and the spinal nerves is the role they play, in helping our bodies to function properly. The body has what is called a peripheral nervous system consisting of more than 100 billion nerve cells, which run all throughout our body, making connections with our brain, as well as other parts of the body, and sometimes with each other. The peripheral nervous system is composed of two systems the somatic and autonomic nervous system. These nerves connect with both the brain and the spinal cord. Our muscles are controlled by voluntary and sensory receptors in the skin, this is an example of the somatic system. The autonomic system connects the brain stem and the spinal cord to the internal organs, and also regulates the body processes, like heart rate and blood pressure, stomach acid, and the speed of food travelling through our digestive systems. The autonomic nervous system is divided into sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions. Each has a job to do within the body. The sympathetic division helps us to deal with stressful or emergency situations. They help us to know, when to fight and when to take flight. The parasympathetic division helps the body to function, in normal situations. Both divisions regulate our pulse, breathing and blood pressure to keep them stable. The cranial nerves connect our brain to our eyes, ears, nose, throat and other parts of our head, neck and trunk. There are twelve (12) pairs of cranial nerves. The nerves, which connect the spinal cord to with other parts of the body are called spinal nerves. The brain communicates or connects with other parts of the body through the spinal nerves. We have thirty-one (31) pairs of spinal nerves. Spinal nerves and cranial nerves are connected with the somatic and the autonomic parts of the peripheral nervous system. Some nerves are sensory nerves and other nerves are motor nerves, depending upon their function within the body.
What are the major nerves in your nervous system?
Cranial nerves and spinal nerves.
What part of the nervous system consists of all of the spinal nerves and cranial nerves is the?
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
Where are neurons found in the human body apart from the brain and spinal cord?
In the nerves of the peripheral nervous system; 12 cranial nerves and 31 spinal nerves.
Do cranial nerves belong to the CNS?
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.
What includes 12 pair of cranial nerves that extend from the brain and 31 pairs of spinal nerves extending from the spinal cord?
Peripheral nervous system
The organs of the nervous system include a brain and spinal cord. b cranial nerves and spinal nerves. c cerebrum and cerebellum. D axons and dendrites?
peripheralThe central nervous system is composed of the brain and spinal cord, A.
What is the PNS made up of?
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).
