What is the primary role of the peripheral nervous system (PNS)?

  1. To pump blood

  2. To connect extremities to the CNS and deliver information

  3. To digest food

  4. To filter blood impurities

The correct answer is: To connect extremities to the CNS and deliver information

The primary role of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) is to connect the extremities (such as arms, legs, and organs) to the central nervous system (CNS) and deliver sensory information. Option A is incorrect because pumping blood is primarily done by the cardiovascular system. Option C is incorrect because digestion is primarily controlled by the digestive system. Option D is incorrect because filtering blood impurities is primarily done by the renal (kidney) system. Therefore, only option B accurately describes the main function of the PNS.
