Question

Nerves that extend out from the spinal cord to all body parts

Answer 1

are known as peripheral nerves. These nerves are responsible for transmitting messages between the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the rest of the body, allowing for sensations such as pain, touch, and temperature to be felt, as well as controlling movement of muscles. Peripheral nerves can be categorized as sensory nerves, which transmit information to the brain, or motor nerves, which transmit commands from the brain to muscles and glands. Damage to peripheral nerves can result in symptoms such as numbness, tingling, weakness, and pain.
