Answer:

B. It is responsible for gathering information using sensory receptors.

Explanation:

The PNS is the acronym for Peripheral Nervous System and along with the Central Nervous System forms the nervous system of the animals and humans.

The PNS is related to the nerves and ganglia outside the brain or the spinal cord, those are related to the CNS. The PNS is responsible for connecting the central system with the organs and the limbs, it serves as connections between the brain with the rest of the body.

It is divided into two systems, the somatic and the autonomic. The sensory receptors located all along the body send the information by the PNS to reach the brain and then create a response.
