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
