What are the similarities of central nervous system and peripheral nervous system?

Both central and peripheral nervous systems are the two components of the nervous system of vertebrates. Both nervous systems are involved in responding different environmental stimuli in the environment, maintaining the life. Both nervous systems comprise neurons with the same physiology.

What are the similarities and differences between CNS and PNS?

Central nervous system (CNS) consists of brain and spinal cord of the body. Peripheral nervous system (PNS) consists of dorsal and ventral root nerve cell heads, spinal and cranial nerves. Central nervous system (CNS) Controls all the voluntary functions of the body.

What is the relationship between the central and peripheral nervous system?

The nerves of the PNS extend from the central nervous system to the outermost areas of the body. The peripheral system allows the brain and spinal cord to receive and send information to other areas of the body, which allows us to react to stimuli in our environment.

What are two differences between the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system?

The CNS consists of the brain and spinal cord, while the PNS includes all other nervous system tissue. All sensory receptors, sensory neurons and motor neurons are part of the PNS. The bones of the skull and spinal vertebrae encase all CNS neurons.
