The peripheral nervous system (PNS) consists of all the nerves that lie outside the brain and spinal cord. It is responsible for connecting the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body, including organs, muscles, and tissues, and transmitting information between them. Therefore, option B is the most appropriate choice. Option A (central nervous system) refers to the brain and spinal cord only, and options C (limbic system) and D (endocrine system) are specific parts of the nervous system that have more specialized functions.
