ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -It connects your brain to your lower back. Your spinal cord carries nerve signals from your brain to your body and vice versa. These nerve signals help you feel sensations and move your body. Any damage to your spinal cord can affect your movement or function.

Detailed explanation-2: -The brain and spinal cord are your body’s central nervous system. The brain is the command center for your body, and the spinal cord is the pathway for messages sent by the brain to the body and from the body to the brain.

Detailed explanation-3: -By way of the peripheral nervous system (PNS), nerve impulses travel to and from the brain through the spinal cord to a specific location in the body. The PNS is a complex system of nerves that branch off from the spinal nerve roots.

Detailed explanation-4: -Nerves In the Peripheral Nervous System Sensory: Connects the brain and spinal cord to your skin and allow you to feel pain and other sensations. Autonomic: Controls involuntary function (e.g., blood pressure, digestion, heart rate). Motor: Connects the brain and spinal cord to muscles to stimulate movement.

Detailed explanation-5: -Your PNS feeds information into your brain from most of your senses. It carries signals that allow you to move your muscles. Your PNS also delivers signals that your brain uses to control vital, unconscious processes like your heartbeat and breathing.
