Which nervous system is protected by bone?
A
Peripheral Nervous System
B
Outer Nervous System
C
Central Nervous System
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Both the brain and the spinal cord are protected by bone: the brain by the bones of the skull, and the spinal cord by vertebrae, a set of ring-shaped bones. They’re both cushioned by layers of membranes (called meninges) and cerebrospinal fluid.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Central Nervous System Because they are so vitally important, the brain and spinal cord, located in the dorsal body cavity, are encased in bone for protection.

Detailed explanation-3: -The CNS is the processing centre of the body and consists of the brain and the spinal cord. Both of these are protected by three layers of membranes known as meninges.

Detailed explanation-4: -The central nervous system is better protected than any other system or organ in the body. Its main line of defense is the bones of the skull and spinal column, which create a hard physical barrier to injury. A fluid-filled space below the bones, called the syrnix, provides shock absorbance.

Detailed explanation-5: -All about the central nervous system The central nervous system (CNS) consists of the brain and spinal cord. It controls things like thought, movement, and emotion, as well as breathing, heart rate, hormones, and body temperature.
