What is the sensory and motor neurons that connect the CNS to the rest of the body?

  1. Central Nervous System

  2. Peripheral Nervous System

  3. Somatic Nervous System

  4. Autonomic Nervous System

The correct answer is: Central Nervous System

The correct answer is the Central Nervous System (CNS). The CNS is comprised of the brain and spinal cord, and it is responsible for processing sensory information received from the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and initiating motor responses. The sensory and motor neurons that connect the CNS to the rest of the body are part of the PNS, which includes all the nerves outside of the CNS. The PNS is further divided into the somatic nervous system, which controls voluntary movements, and the autonomic nervous system, which regulates involuntary bodily functions. The sensory and motor neurons in the PNS transmit information to and from the CNS, allowing for communication and coordination between the brain and the body.
