The human nervous system is divided into two parts the central nervous system and
there peripheral system. The central nervous system has the brain and the spinal cord.
The Peripheral system connects the central system to the rest of the body.
The main job of the nervous system is to send and receive messages. There are
12 nerves in the brain and 31 major sensors in the spinal cord. The Peripherals can be
divided even more to the Autonomic NS and the Somatic NS. The Autonomic NS can
