Answer:

2 Major Subdivisions:

Central Nervous System

Peripheral Nervous System

Explanation:

The central nervous system (CNS) regulates the majority of bodily and mental activities. It is divided into two parts: the brain and the spinal cord. The brain is the core of our ideas, the translator of our surroundings, and the source of control over physical action.

The PNS is the nerve that links the CNS to the rest of the body. The peripheral nervous system's principal job is to link the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body and the outside world. The peripheral nervous system sends and receives information to and from the central nervous system. This is done by neurons that convey information from sensory receptors in the eyes, ears, skin, nose, and tongue, as well as stretch receptors and nociceptors in muscles, glands, and other internal organs.
