The Nervous System Parts And Functions
The document discusses the main components and functions of the human nervous system. It explains that the nervous system is comprised of the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. The brain contains three main parts - the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brain stem. The cerebrum controls voluntary actions and stores data. The cerebellum coordinates movements and controls balance. The brain stem connects the brain to the spinal cord and controls neurological functions. The spinal cord and nerves transmit signals between the brain, spinal cord, and organs throughout the body.
