The Nervous System Function: The function of the nervous system is to control and coordinate functions throughout the body and respond to external and internal stimuli. The nervous system is divided into 2 parts the PNS (peripheral nervous system) and the CNS (central nervous system), and is in control of both. Nerve signals are transmitted through these systems. Interdependence: The nervous system relies on the muscular system to work properly. Organism Comparison: A flatworm?s nervous system is simpler compared to humans. It has nerve cords that control its actions. The Skeletal System
