    The divisions of the nervous system are the Central Nervous System (CNS) and the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS). The CNS is made of two parts the brain and the spinal cord. The PNS is made up the Somatic nervous system and the automatic system. The somatic nervous contains the peripheral nerve fibers that deliver sensory information to the CNS and motor nerve fibers that go to the skeletal muscle. The central nervous system sends messages from the brain to the rest of the body. (Divisions of The

    ABSTRACT NEW DISCOVORIES FOR THE REGENERATION OF DAMAGED NEURONS (Possible cures and relief for millions of people) Normally‚ neurons in the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord) cannot regenerate injured nerve fibers‚ limiting people’s ability to recover from brain or spinal cord injuries. Repair of the central nervous system and restoration of voluntary motor activity through axonal re-growth has long been considered impossible in mammals. Over the last decade‚ numerous attempts
