The nervous system is made up of a network of complex fibers known as nerves that thread throughout the human body like house hold wiring. The nerves conduct electrical signals back and forth between the brain and the different parts of the body. The nervous system consists of 3 different systems which connect to a particular part of the brain: •The motor nerves system, wiiich controls the muscles of the body •The sensory nervous system, which channels information from the five main bodily senses of sight, sound, touch, taste, smell and the sensation of the pain to the brain. •The autonomic nervous system, which controls automatic functions such as breathing, heart beat and digestion.
