Solution

The functions of the spinal cord are:

  1. It conducts nerve impulses to and from the brain.
  2. It is a center for many reflexes.

The spinal cord is not the center for sensory perception and intellect, that is the function of the brain. Also, it does not cushion impacts, therefore providing shock absorption. This is a function of various other parts of the body, such as the skeletal system and soft tissues.
