In our nervous system, the role of the CNS (Central Nervous System) is to receive, process, analyze, interpret and organize the information coming from our primary senses and sends out the messages as instructions for the effector organs. On the other hand, the role of the PNS (Peripheral Nervous System) is to handle and transmit the impulses coming from the senses and going to the effector organs accordingly.
