There are two main types of nerves.. Motor nerves - allow the brain to control our muscles. The brain sends signals over the motor nerves to tell our muscles to expand or contract so we can move. Sensory nerves - These nerves carry signals to the brain to tell it about what is going on from our senses. They come from our skin, eyes, tongue, nose, and ears.

The brain and the spinal cord make up what is called the central nervous system. The rest of the nerves together are called the peripheral nervous system. Nerves are sort of like wires that carry communication signals or impulses around the body. Inside each nerve is a bundle of nerve fibers.

The spinal cord is the main pathway for information connecting the brain and peripheral nervous system. The human spinal cord is protected by the bony spinal cord column. The spinal cord column is made up of bones called vertebrae.

Next is the cerebellum. The cerebellum is at the back of the brain, below the cerebrum. It's a lot smaller than the cerebrum at only an 8th of its size. It controls balance, movement, and coordination pretty much how your muscles work together.

When you're thinking hard, you're using your cerebrum. You need it to solve math problems, figure out a video game, and draw a picture. Your memory is in the cerebrum; both short term memory and long term memory. The cerebrum also helps you reason, like when you figure out that you'd better do your homework now instead of tomorrow when it is due.

The biggest part of your brain is called the cerebrum. It makes up 85% of the brain's weight. The cerebrum is the thinking part of your brain and it controls your voluntary muscles. The ones that move when you want them to dance or kick a soccer ball.

Your brain is the boss of your body. It runs and controls just about everything you do, even when you're asleep.
