Three kinds of neurons?
1.sensory neuron- carry impulses from the sensory receptors to the Central Nervous System 2.motor neurons- carry impulses from the Central Nervous System to the muscles and glans 3.association neuron- relay impulses netween sensory and motor neurons -------------------- AD go to bookden.webs.com .. a website for booklovers.. thx
What carries impulses toward the cell body?
Dendrites carry impulses toward the cell body in a neuron. They receive signals from other neurons and transmit them to the cell body for processing.
How do sensory neurons and motor neurons act in opposite ways?
Sensory neurons transmit signals from sensory receptors towards the central nervous system to detect external stimuli, while motor neurons transmit signals from the central nervous system to muscles and glands to initiate a response or action. In this way, sensory neurons bring information in and motor neurons send information out to carry out a response.
The bundles of neurons that transmit impulses over long distances are called?
The bundles of neurons that transmit impulses over long distances are called nerves. Nerves are composed of axons, which are the long fibers that carry electrical impulses from one part of the body to another.
What carry messages from brain to body and back again?
The nervous system carries messages between the brain and the body. This is done through a network of neurons that transmit electrical and chemical signals. Sensory neurons carry messages from the body to the brain, while motor neurons carry messages from the brain to the body to control movement and response.
What neurons carry motor impulses?
Motor neurons
What neurons carry impulses toward the spinal cord and brain?
afferent neurons
How many types of neurons?
There are three types of neurons. 1.Sensory neurons: which carry impulses from the sense organs to the brain and spinal cord. 2.Motor neurons : which perform an opposite function to that of sensory neurons by carrying impulses from the brain and spinal cord to muscles and glands. 3. Inter neurons : which connect sensory and motor neurons and carry impulses between them.
Similarities of motor and sensory neurons?
Sensory neurones carry impulses to the CNS, motor neurones carry impulses to muscles.
What are sensory neurones?
Neurons that receive info & send impulses to brian or spinal cord.
What are Sensory neurons a part of?
These are those neurons which carry impulses from the organ or part of body to the brain
When a group of neurons that carry impulses from the CNS to effectors are clustered together they are called what?
Motor neurons.
What do neurons carry nerve impulses in the form of?
Neurons carry nerve impulses in the form of electrical signals. These signals are generated by changes in the electrical charge of the cell membrane, allowing for communication between neurons and other cells in the body.
Neurons carry impulses away from the brain and spinal cord?
Afferent
What neurons carry impulses away from the spinal cord and the brain?
the sensory neurons
What are the neurons that carry impulses from the brain or spinal cord to other organs and cause muscles to contract?
motor neurons
What are neurons that carry impulses towards the spinal cord and brain?
An Efferent Neuron.
