The primary functions of the CNS and those of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) are highly related. Typically, the PNS comprises of the ganglia and the nerves that lie on the outer side of the spinal cord and human mind. However, the CNS and the PNS are coordinated to relay data all the way beginning from the brain, the spinal cord and then the entire body (Woolsey, Hanaway, & Gado, 2017). As noted earlier, the CNS is composed of the spinal cord and brain, which are enclosed in the vertebrae and skull vault respectively. The PNS comprises of the cranial jumpy that projects from the mind and passes through the intervertebral foramina and foramina in the skull.
From a career point of view, the knowledge of anatomy has enabled me to identify and describe the internal structure of living things. Furthermore, the understanding forms the basis of practicing health and medicine in the society to alleviate human diseases (Woolsey, Hanaway, & Gado, 2017). One of the most important discoveries with the week’s material involves the connection between the two parts of the human nervous system and their link to the…
