Hey Mate!

Question:-
What constitutes the central and peripheral nervous systems? How are the components of central nervous system protected?

Answer:-
•The central nervous system is composed of the brain and the spinal cord.
•The peripheral nervous system is composed of cranial nerves, spinal nerves and the autonomous nervous system.

•Brain gets the maximum protection, as it is housed inside the skull. Spinal cord gets protection by the vertebral column. Additionally, the brain and the spinal cord are surrounded by a system of three layers; called meninges. The cerebrospinal fluid; filled between these membranes; provides a cushion against mechanical shocks.

Hope my answer will help you

Explanation:

The central nervous system (CNS) controls most functions of the body and mind. It consists of two parts: the brain and the spinal cord. The brain is the center of our thoughts, the interpreter of our external environment, and the origin of control over body movement.
