Question

Name the part of the nervous system which helps in communication between the central nervous system and other parts of the body.

Answer 1

The part of the nervous system that helps in communication between the central nervous system (CNS) and other parts of the body is the peripheral nervous system. It consists of cranial nerves that arise from the brain and spinal nerves that arise from the spinal cord.

The peripheral nervous system facilitates the transmission of information and commands between the CNS and various body parts, enabling the brain to receive sensory information from the body and send motor commands to muscles and glands​.
