Abstract
Primarily, the nervous system consists of the brain. Being the body's central command center, it is an intricate organ. It regulates respiration, touch, temperature, emotions, memory, and mental processes. According to Hopkin (2023), the central nervous system is comprised of the brain and the spinal cord that emanates from it. The cerebellum and cerebrum make up the two main divisions of the brain. The term "cerebrum" refers to the biggest and highest area of the brain. It comprises the cerebral hemispheres and accounts for roughly two thirds of the brain's total weight. Temperature regulation, speech, cognition, learning, hearing, touch, and other processes are all made easier by it. Movement is also initiated and organized by it (Zimbardo et al., 2003).
