Identify the components of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) by understanding its role in the body.
Recognize that the PNS is distinct from the central nervous system (CNS), which includes the brain and spinal cord.
Understand that the PNS consists of all the nerves and neurons that are outside the brain and spinal cord.
Differentiate between the PNS and specific brain structures such as the cerebellum and hippocampus, which are part of the CNS.
Clarify that the parietal lobes and frontal lobes are regions of the brain, thus part of the CNS, not the PNS.
