Answer
A
processing information that is received from the stimuli receptors
B
receiving stimuli and making the body react to those stimuli
C
sending out information so that the body can react appropriately to stimuli
D
coordinating reflexes and reactions to stimuli
E
sensing stimuli and causing reactions in the body

Explanation

The CNS, which consists of the brain and spinal cord, processes sensory information received from receptors and coordinates an appropriate response. It also sends commands through the nervous system to help the body react, and the spinal cord coordinates many reflexes. Sensing stimuli is done by sensory receptors, while the peripheral nervous system carries information between the CNS and the rest of the body.
