Correct answer: A. Periphenal Nervous System
- A. Periphenal Nervous System
- B. Every sense organ
- C. The non-nervous cellular around all axons
- D. None of the above
Explanation
Ganglia are part of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). They are clusters of neuronal cell bodies located outside the central nervous system (CNS), along nerves or nerve roots. Ganglia contain collections of sensory or motor neurons and serve various functions, such as relaying sensory information to the CNS or integrating motor commands before they reach target muscles or glands.

About Coordination and Control
Coordination depends on receptors, neurons, synapses and nerve impulses, with reflex actions traced through the reflex arc and the roles of major brain regions. Chemical coordination covers endocrine glands and hormones, including how hormones regulate growth, metabolism, reproduction and internal balance, unlike rapid nervous control.
