Introduction:

The nervous system is the complex network of nerves and cells that transmit signals between different parts of the body. It is responsible for transmitting, processing, and integrating sensory information, as well as controlling and coordinating the actions of the muscles and organs.

The nervous system can be divided into two main parts: the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The CNS consists of the brain and spinal cord, and is responsible for processing and integrating sensory information and directing the body's responses. The PNS is made up of all the nerves that lie outside of the CNS and connects the CNS to the rest of the body. The PNS is responsible for transmitting sensory information to the CNS and transmitting signals from the CNS to the muscles and organs.
