The notes compare central and peripheral pathways and focus on the somatic nervous system and its role in voluntary movement, relaying signals between sense receptors, the CNS, and muscles. They then outline the autonomic nervous system, including its automatic regulation of organs and glands, its two sub-divisions, and the sympathetic “fight-flight-freeze” response.
