The CNS includes the brain and the spinal cord ii. The PNS comprises of all the nerves of the body associated with the CNS iii. PNS consist of cranial nerve and spinal nerve iv. The PNS is divided into two divisions called somatic neural system and autonomic neural system v. The efferent nerve fibres of PNS transmit impulses from tissues/organs to the CNS vi. Afferent fibres of PNS transmit regulatory impulses from the CNS to the concerned peripheral tissues/organs.

(C) Efferent fibres transmit regulatory impulses from CNS to pheripheral tissues. (D) Brain, ganglia and neural tissues found in neural system of insecta. How many of above statements are right?

Read the following statements and find out the incorrect statements. a. The CNS is the size of information processing and control. b. The somatic neural system relays impules from the CNS to the involuntary organs and smooth muscels of the body. c. The autonomic neural system transmits impules from the CNS to skeleton muscles. d. The autonomic neural system is further classified into sympathetic and parasympathetic neural system.

Assertion:Reflex arc comprises of at least one afferent neuron, one efferent neuron and a part of PNS. Reason:The efferent neuron receivers signal from a sensory organ and transmits the impulse via a ventral nerve root into the PNS.

Assertion : Non-myelinated nerve fibres do not possess nodes of Ranvier. Reason : This is due to the absence of nissl's bodies in node of Ranvier.
