Central Nervous System

Cards (5)

  • The Brain analyses sensory information and directs future responses
  • The Brain is responsible for directing both conscious and some unconscious responses
  • The Spinal Cord receives sensory information from the PNS and transports the info to the brain via Interneurons
  • The Spinal Cord receives motor decisions from the brain and relays them back to the PNS via the interneurons
  • The Spinal Cord can initiate simple motor responses in the form of spinal reflexes that occur rapidly without consulting the brain
