The Amazing Nervous System: the Central Nervous System

The video tutorial explains the central nervous system, comprising the brain and spinal cord, and its role in processing information. It describes the backbone's structure and function in protecting the spinal cord. The brain's protective skull is discussed, along with the risk of concussions. The brain's main parts—the brain stem, cerebellum, and cerebrum—are detailed, highlighting their roles in controlling involuntary and voluntary functions.

Explain the role of the thalamus and hypothalamus in the brain.
