cranial nerves are nerves which arise from different parts of brain that are paired and 12 pair and 24 in number.
peripheral nerves are neurons that exists out side brain and spinalcord and make up
peripheral nerve system.
The peripheral nervous system consists of all the spinal nerves and cranial nerves. These nerves connect the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) to the rest of the body, allowing for communication and control of bodily functions.
Most of the cranial nerves originate from the brainstem.
it is made up by nerves and associated cells that are not part of the brain and the spinal cord, included here are cranial nerves that pass through openings in the skull and stimulate regions of the head and neck, spinal nerves, and ganglia(ganglia are collections of nerve cell bodies).
Yes, cranial nerves are considered part of the CNS because they arise directly from the brain rather than the spinal cord. They play a crucial role in sensory and motor functions of the head and neck.
The nerves responsible for transmitting signals between the brain and the rest of the body are called the cranial nerves and the spinal nerves.

Neuropathy can affect the brain. It can damage the cranial nerves that lead out of the brain. The cranial nerves, except for cranial nerve II which is the optic nerve, are a part of the peripheral nervous system.
nerves (peripheral, spinal, and cranial).
In the nerves of the peripheral nervous system; 12 cranial nerves and 31 spinal nerves.
for the nerves the peripheral nervous system, for your brain and spinal cord the cental nervous system.
PNS means peripheral nervous system. CNS means central nervous system.
Peripheral nervous system
Neuritis is inflammation of a nerve. There are different types of neuritis such as optic neuritis (affecting the optic nerve), cranial neuritis (involving the cranial nerves), and peripheral neuritis (affecting peripheral nerves outside the brain and spinal cord). Each type can have various causes and symptoms.
Cranial nervesCranial Nerves only originate in the brain and carry messages to and from structures in the head and neck.
