Peripheral nervous system
The peripheral nervous system (PNS) contains all the nerves in the body outside of the brain and spinal cord, which constitute the central nervous system (CNS). Nerves extend from the CNS to all points in the body. The PNS facilitates the transfer of information from the CNS to distant organs and limbs.
