How the Nervous System works?
The nervous system is a very important thing for your body. It allows you to think, remember, learn, interpret information from the senses and the most important thing is that it controls the movement of your body. Every living organism has this system.
Spinal Cord
Extending down from the brain is a thick cord of nerve cells called the Spinal Cord. Nerves fan out from this cord to the rest of the body.
Brain
The brain is the central organ of the nervous system. The human brain is composed of more than 100 billions neurons.
Backbone
The spinal cord is protected by a thick series of bones called vertebrae.These bones make up your backbone.
Neurons
The human body is made up of trillions of cells. Cells of the nervous system, called nerve cells orneurons, are specialized to carry "messages" through an electrochemical process. The human brain has approximately 100 billion neurons.
