The central nervious system (CNS) is like the power plant of the nervous system. It creates the signals that control the functions of the body. The PNS is like the wires that go to individual houses. Without those “wires,” the signals produced by the CNS could not control the body (and the CNS would not be able to receive sensory information from the body either).

The sino-atrial node serves as the pacemaker, with contractions detected by electrocardiograms (ECGs). It highlights ventricular fibrillation, which can be treated with defibrillators. Additionally, the heart rate is adjusted by the accelerans and vagus nerves, responding to stress and bodily needs to regulate heartbeat and blood pressure.
