Which describe the functions of the central nervous system? Select all that apply.

The central nervous system, made up of the brain and spinal cord, processes information and coordinates the body’s responses. It acts as the nervous system’s control center and helps regulate sleep and vital functions such as breathing and heart rate. Digestion is carried out mainly by the digestive system, so “digests food for nutrients” does not describe a CNS function.
