nervous system: Your nervous system consists of all the nerves in your body together with your brain and spinal cord. The system of cells, tissues, and organs that regulates the body's responses to internal and external stimuli. In vertebrates it consists of the brain, spinal cord, nerves, ganglia, and parts of the receptor and effector organs. your nerves, brain, and spinal cord, with which your body feels pain, heat etc and your movements are controlled. System of specialized cells (neurons, or nerve cells) that conduct stimuli from a sensory receptor through a neuron network to the site (e.g., a gland or muscle) where the response occurs. In humans, it consists of the central and peripheral nervous systems, the former consisting of the brain and spinal cord and the latter of the nerves, which carry impulses to and from the central nervous system. The cranial nerves handle head and neck sensory and motor activities, except the vagus nerve, which conducts signals to visceral organs. Each spinal nerve is attached to the spinal cord by a sensory and a motor root. These exit between the vertebrae and merge to form a large mixed nerve, which branches to supply a defined area of the body. Disorders include amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, chorea, epilepsy, myasthenia gravis, neural tube defect, parkinsonism, and poliomyelitis. Effects of disorders range from transient tics and minor personality changes to major personality disruptions, seizures, paralysis, and death

This system is made up of your brain and all the nerves connecting to it Together, they act like a super-fast, two-way message highway that helps you tell your body what to do and even move, think, and feel For example, when you touch something really hot, your nervous system sends a message from your fingers to your brain, saying, "You're touching something really hot!" Then another message comes from your brain back to your fingers, telling them to "Pull back!" All of this communicating happens in a split second, saving you from burning your fingers badly Your nervous system also lets you feel the soft fur of a puppy, button your shirt, and taste yummy foods It lets you run and kick a soccer ball and feel good after you score the winning goal!
