The central nervous system consists of two primary structures:
Brain: The brain is the master organ that oversees cognitive functions, emotions, memory, and sensory processing. It is further divided into several regions, including the cortex, cerebellum, and brainstem. Spinal Cord: The spinal cord runs down the vertebral column and acts as a conduit for signals between the brain and the rest of the body. It also coordinates reflexes and supports motor control.
