Central nervous system (CNS): Brain and spinal cord - Integrative and control centers Peripheral nervous system (PNS): - Cranial nerves and spinal nerves - Communication lines between the CNS and the rest of the body Autonomic nervous system (ANS): - Motor efferent division - Somatic and visceral sensory nerve fibers - Conducts impulses from receptors to the CNS - Motor nerve fibers - Conducts impulses from the CNS to effectors (muscles and glands) Parasympathetic division: - Somatic nervous system - Somatic (voluntary) motor nerve fibers - Conducts impulses from the CNS to skeletal muscles - Visceral (involuntary) motor nerve fibers - Conducts impulses from the CNS to cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, and glands Sensory (afferent) division Sympathetic division: - Mobilizes body systems during activity - Conserves energy - Promotes housekeeping functions during rest
