Question
Which of the following statements is INCORRECT for the structure of the nervous system?Group of answer choicesAll cranial nerves are part of the central nervous system (CNS)The peripheral nervous system (PNS) can be subdivided into somatic, sensory and autonomic componentsAll motor neurons have axons in the peripheral nervous system (PNS)Primary sensory neurons have cell bodies and most of their axons in the peripheral nervous system (PNS)The spinal cord is part of the central nervous system (CNS)
Solution
The incorrect statement is: "All cranial nerves are part of the central nervous system (CNS)". While cranial nerves are connected to the brain, they are considered part of the peripheral nervous system (PNS), not the central nervous system (CNS).
