What will be an ideal response?

The answer should begin by distinguishing the central and peripheral nervous systems
and by describing the functions of each. Next, the answer should describe the major structures of
the brain (the brain stem, the cerebellum, and the cerebral hemispheres) and each of their
functions. A strong answer will make note of the protective elements found in the brain and
spinal cord (the vertebrae, the meninges, and the cerebrospinal fluid, and the blood-brain barrier).
