No, the central nervous system consists of only the brain and the spinal cord. The rest of the nerves in the body are part of the peripheral nervous system.
Explanation:
The central nervous system is the body's "control center" so it is made up of the brain and spinal cord. The peripheral nervous system is attached to the brain and spinal cord. All of the neurons that span the body and transmit signals to other parts are peripheral.
