Document Summary
The nervous system is made up of the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. >the central nervous system include the brain and the spinal cord whereas the peripheral nervous system includes the somatic nervous system (controls movements of the muscles), >the autonomic nervous system (regulates smooth muscles i. e. , inner organs); it is further divided into the: : supports systems that replenish the body"s energy stores (e. g. , The brain is protected by the cerebral spinal fluid (csf) that cushions the brain and flows through the spaces in the brain called ventricles continually produced, circulated, and reabsorbed through the brain & ventricles. Researchers hypothesize that differences in bodily responses, brain structure, brain activity, and biochemistry activity are all related to individual differences in personality sympathetic division: parasympathetic division salivation, digestion) which mobilizes energy (e, for fight or flight) Autonomic system responsible for body"s responding to arousing events.
