The peripheral nervous system (PNS) is the connection between the central nervous system and the rest of the body. The CNS is like the power plant of the nervous system. It creates the signals that control the functions of the body. The PNS is like the wires that go to individual houses...
The human nervous system can be divided into two interacting subsystems: theperipheral nervous system (PNS)and thecentral nervous system (CNS). The CNS consists of the brain and spinal cord. The peripheral nervous system is an extensive network of nerves connecting the CNS to the muscles and s...

primary function of the peripheral nervous system is to serve as a pathway of communication between the CNS and the rest of the body. While CNS organs have a protective covering of bone (brain-skull, spinal cord—spinal column), the nerves of the PNS are exposed and more vulnerable to ...
The mammalian nervous system is anatomically separated into central and peripheral systems that are functionally intertwined. The central nervous system receives a continuous stream of information about external and internal environmental factors from sensory elements of the peripheral nervous system (PNS), ...

The parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) is one of the two main branches of the autonomic nervous system, the other being the sympathetic nervous system. Together, these systems regulate involuntary bodily functions, including those related to the heart, lungs, digestive system, and more. The PNS...
The Peripheral Nervous System In addition to the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord) there is also a complex network of nerves that travel to every part of the body. This is called theperipheral nervous system(PNS) and it carries the signals necessary for the body to survive...
The nervous system controls conscious and unconscious motor and sensory as well as emotional and intellectual functions. It is divided in the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS) (Figure 13.1). The CNS consists of the brai
