- https://med.libretexts.org/Courses/Skyline_College/Human_Physiology_for_Allied_Health_Professionals/06%3A_Anatomy_of_the_Nervous_TissueThe nervous system is responsible for controlling much of the body, both through somatic (voluntary) and autonomic (involuntary) functions.

The structures of the nervous system must be described in detail to understand how many of these functions are possible. There is a physiological concept known as localization of function that states that certain structures are specifically responsible for prescribed functions. It is an underlying concept in all of anatomy and physiology, but the nervous sys

These structures allow the nervous system to control somatic (voluntary) and autonomic (involuntary) functions. Other structures, such as meninges, blood-brain barrier and cerebrospinal fluid, support and protect the organs of the nervous system.
