(B) Explain the types and functions of the nerve which are a part of the peripheral nervous system

ANS- There is a lot to learn about the nervous system and the pathologies associated with it. What we do know is that there are two nervous systems in the human body and they relate to each other. The first is the central nervous system, which includes the brain and the spinal cord. The second nervous system, known as the peripheral nervous system, contains all the nerves in the body that lie outside of the spinal cord and brain. These two systems communicate with each other to make sure our body parts, such as our fingers, can send signals to the central nervous system for processing in our brains
The peripheral nervous system consists of 12 pairs of cranial nerves and 31 pairs of spinal nerves. Some of those nerve pairs are exclusively sensory cells, such as cells that detect information like smell and vision. Others are exclusively motor cells, like the eyeballs and hearing. Also, there are nerve pairs that have both sensory and motor cells, such as those involved in taste and some aspects of swallowing.
