Answer : Option A) Message dispatch

Explanation : If the central nervous system is the main control center for the body, the peripheral nervous system is the message dispatch.

The major role of the peripheral nervous system is to send the information collected from all the senses to the brain. It includes the area which surrounds the central nervous system which has nerves and ganglia outside the brain and spinal cord. Which helps in transferring the senses to the brain. It acts like a dispatch center and passes on the message to the central nervous system.
