  1. Central nervous system

    The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord. The brain is divided into the cerebrum, brain stem, and cerebellum. The cerebrum is made up of two hemispheres and controls functions like reasoning and movement. The brain stem regulates vital functions. The cerebellum coordinates movement and balance.

  2. Central nervous system: Anatomy, structure, function

    The central nervous system (CNS) is a division of the nervous system whose function is to analyze and integrate various intra- and extrapersonal information, as well as to generate a coordinated response to these stimuli. Put simply, the CNS is the supreme command center of the body. The CNS consists of two organs which are continuous with each ...

  3. The Central Nervous System

    The brain and the spinal cord are the central nervous system, and they represent the main organs of the nervous system. The spinal cord is a single structure, whereas the adult brain is described in terms of four major regions: the cerebrum, the diencephalon, the brain stem, and the cerebellum. A person's conscious experiences are based on ...

  4. Anatomy and physiology of Central Nervous System

    The document summarizes the anatomy and physiology of the central nervous system. It describes how the brain develops from the neural tube and then subdivides into the forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. It provides details on the major parts of the brain including the cerebral hemispheres, diencephalon, brainstem, cerebellum, and ventricles.

  7. Central nervous system

    central nervous system, system of nerve tissue in vertebrates that consists of the brain and spinal cord.The central nervous system controls both voluntary movements, such as those involved in walking and in speech, and involuntary movements, such as breathing and reflex actions. It also is the centre of emotion and cognition.It is one of the two main parts that comprise the human nervous ...

  8. 12.1 Basic Structure and Function of the Nervous System

    Nervous tissue, present in both the CNS and PNS, contains two basic types of cells: neurons and glial cells. A glial cell is one of a variety of cells that provide a framework of tissue that supports the neurons and their activities. The neuron is the more functionally important of the two, in terms of the communicative function of the nervous system.

  9. Central Nervous System: Definition, Function, Parts

    Definition. The central nervous system (CNS) consists of the brain and spinal cord. This body system is responsible for integrating and coordinating the activities of the entire body. Through these physical structures, thought, emotion, and sensation are experienced, and body movements are coordinated.

    4. The central nervous system (CNS) is comprised of the brain and spinal cord. The CNS receives sensory information from the nervous system and controls the body's responses. The brain plays a central role in the control of most bodily functions, including awareness, movements, sensations, thoughts, speech, and memory. Some reflex movements can ...

  13. Nervous system: Structure, function and diagram

    The nervous system is a network of neurons whose main feature is to generate, modulate and transmit information between all the different parts of the human body. This property enables many important functions of the nervous system, such as regulation of vital body functions ( heartbeat, breathing, digestion), sensation and body movements.
