Explanation:

The nervous system is fundamental for the perception of the world around us and also for the functioning of the body and the performance of activities such as locomotion, reasoning and memory. It is made up of neurons and glial cells, which provide, among other functions, a suitable microenvironment for neurons.

The central nervous system acts as an integrating center, processing all incoming pulse information. It is in this region, therefore, that decisions are made and orders are generated and sent to the effector body.
