Guide To Serious Nervous System Disorders

The nervous system is responsible for the coordination and regulation of an individual's body activities. There are two primary divisions of the nervous system: the peripheral and central nervous systems. The peripheral nervous system consists of all of the nerves and neural elements around the body that are not part of the spinal cord and brain. The central nervous system refers to all the nerves and neural components in the spinal cord and brain. Other elements of the nervous system include the ears, smell sensory organs, skin sensory receptors, eyes, taste sensory organs, and muscle sensory receptors.
