The main components of the nervous system are the brain, spinal cord, and nerves; they process information and control responses. The brain acts as the control center, interpreting sensory information and coordinating responses. The spinal cord transmits signals between the brain and the rest of the body, while the peripheral nerves connect the central nervous system to limbs and organs, facilitating communication and reflex actions. Together, these components enable the body to respond to stimuli and maintain homeostasis.
