the declaration was signed by thirty-four committee members. although the bush declaration was not a call for separation from the british empire, local histories have, with perhaps more pride than historical accuracy, described the bush declaration as the first declaration of independence made by any representative body in america. reasons for imagining this declaration as one of independence stem from two positions; the first being, that the signers understood adoption of such a declaration was akin to treason, and so record the risk to their lives in doing so. the second position is an argument from inference since thomas jefferson appears to have been familiar with the document. the last line of the bush declaration is surprisingly similar to the last line found in the declaration of independence, as it states, "we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor." jefferson may have reasoned such language was suited towards the pursuit of independence, and in understanding the stakes implied in the bush declaration, looked to the document to make a fitting statement on behalf of the country.

from a structural perspective, the nervous system is typically subdivided into two component parts: the central nervous system (cns), composed of the brain and the spinal cord; and the peripheral nervous system (pns), composed of the nerves and ganglia outside the brain and spinal cord. the cns is mostly responsible for organizing motion, processing sensory information, thought, memory, cognition and other such functions. it remains a matter of some debate whether the cns directly gives rise to consciousness. the peripheral nervous system (pns) is mostly responsible for gathering information with sensory neurons and directing body movements with motor neurons.
