garik1379 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The peripheral nervous system includes the <u>cranial nerves, spinal nerves, peripheral nerves, neuromuscular junctions and ganglia.</u>

Explanation:

The peripheral nervous system comprises all the nerves that branch from the brain and spinal cord to other parts of the body. It serves as a transmitter between the central nervous system (CNS) and the activity that takes place in specialized tissues. An important component of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) are the cranial nerves, which are born in the brain. Some control the muscles of the head and neck region, and others carry nerve impulses from the sensing organs, such as the eyes, to the brain. Peripheral nerves are those that are outside the brain and spinal cord. The spinal nerves, make connection with the spinal cord and are responsible for innervation of the trunk, upper extremities and parts of the head. The neuromuscular junction or neuromuscular plaque is the synapse between a motor neuron and a muscle. Finally, the ganglia are groups of nerve cells that give a measure of control over the passage of nerve impulses, connecting the brain with specific organs.

Which best describes a gamete
netineya [11]
A gamete is a haploid cell, a cell with only one pair of chromosomes.

When a sex cell (Egg and sperm) come together, they together will create a dipole cell (46 chromosomes, 2 pairs).
