Do shrimp has a central nervous system? Are they able to feel pain? I'm just curious.

Yes, they have a nervous system - it´s very simple, consisting in several ganglia along the body, with the biggest ones in the head (for sensorial use) and nerves irradiating from these ganglia. Pain is something no living animal can live without, because it gives out alert of danger.

i believe they do but there brain is weak and there not very smart they do probably feel pain but have no actuall thaughts or fear or joy and rely mostly on instincts.
