AI overview

A nerve is a cable-like bundle of fibers that carries electrical signals between your brain and body, allowing information to travel to and from your organs and senses. Nerves matter because they form the communication system that connects your central nervous system to the rest of your body, enabling movement, sensation, and bodily functions.
