Which statement correctly states a limitation of nervous control?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: It quickly sends messages only to parts connected by nerves
Nervous control depends on electrical impulses travelling through specific neurons and nerve pathways. This makes it rapid and relatively precise, but its direct action is limited to cells or organs connected to the nervous system. Therefore option A correctly states a limitation. Option B describes a feature more typical of hormonal distribution, option C incorrectly assigns long duration to all nerve effects, and option D is not a valid description of plant coordination.
