Grasshopper brain, illustration. The nervous system of an insect consists of the brain (centre) and the ventral nerve cord. The brain consists of six fused segments. Ganglia (clusters of nerve cells) are located along the ventral nerve cord. Grasshoppers have enhanced neural structures that process sensory information from the eyes. Nerve branches also lead to the antennae and legs.
