Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The spinal nerves are part of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and carry information in and out of the brain. The PNS includes all nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord, including the spinal nerves. The central nervous system (CNS) includes only the brain and spinal cord, so option A is incorrect. There is no such thing as a "central peripheral nervous system," so option B is incorrect. "Perinatal nervous system" is not a recognized term or concept, so option D is also incorrect.
