All of the functions of the nervous system are basically accomplished by:
Correct answer: A. Conduction of impulses
- A. Conduction of impulses
- B. Stimulation
- C. Inhibition
- D. Reception
Explanation
After receiving information and processing it, the nervous system needs to transmit signals to various parts of the body. This conduction of impulses along neurons is essential for coordinating responses.

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.
