Homonym: nerves (Anxiety)
Nerves are special structures in our body that help transmit signals between the brain and different parts of the body. They are made up of cells called neurons, which send messages that control everything we do, from moving our muscles to feeling sensations like touch and pain. Nerves play a crucial role in our nervous system, which includes the brain and spinal cord.
When you touch something hot, for example, nerves quickly send a signal to your brain to react, helping you pull your hand away. This fast communication is essential for our survival and helps us respond to our environment. Without nerves, we wouldn't be able to move or feel properly.
