Tognoli and Kelso (2014) also highlighted transitions and metastability in brain and behavior, revealing a subtle blend of integration and segregation in neural components. Segregation reflects tendencies for b
The nervous system is an extraordinarily complex network of cellular connections. It forms the structural basis of recognition, perception, memory, speech, locomotion, and feeling, as well as unconscious hormonal and autonomic functions. The brain and spinal cord are the principal components of the ...
The PSNS helps your body relax and maintains some of your body's functions, like digestion, heart rate, and breathing. It's a network of small neurons and large nerves that run throughout your body and regulate these processes. Your PSNS is part of the autonomic nervous system, which con...
Structurally, the nervous system has two components: the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. According to theNational Institutes of Health, the central nervous system is made up of the brain, spinal cord and nerves. The peripheral nervous system consists of sensory neurons, ga...
Genetics of the nervous system refers to the study of genetics affecting the development, physiology and functions of the nervous system and diseases thereof.

The nervous system is a complex structure that regulates the body's functions and responses through electrical and chemical signaling. It consists of the central nervous system, which includes the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system, which includes the nerves and ganglia connecti...
