Nerve

A Nerve is a bundle of neurons and they spread out to every part of the body with sense receptors, skin, muscles and internal organs. 

 

Twelve pairs of cranial nerves leave the Brain through holes in the skull.  Thirty one pairs of spinal nerves leave the Spinal Cord through the vertebrae.  Together they make up the peripheral nervous system.
