What is the difference between Central and Peripheral Nervous System?
What is the difference between a neuron and a glial cell in the nervous system?
We regularly make conscious decisions to make specific muscular movements. For example,
when using the touch interface of your phone, you make a conscious effort to scroll up and down
the screen using your finger.
In contrast, there are many muscular movements that cannot be controlled voluntarily. For
example, you cannot make your heart stop by thinking about it.
Which of the following statements correctly identifies the parts of the nervous system that are
involved in voluntary and involuntary actions, respectively?
Select one:
a. Motor neurons of the somatic nervous system and motor neurons of the autonomic nervous
system
b. Motor neurons of the autonomic nervous system and sensory neurons of the somatic
nervous system
c. Sensory neurons of the somatic nervous system and sensory neurons of the autonomic
nervous system
d. Sensory neurons of the peripheral nervous system and motor neurons of the autonomic
nervous system

These two sets of muscles are controlled by different components of the nervous system.
