An example of afferent neuron would be using a sense. In this case we will choose touch or feel. EX: Your Hammering the door and suddenly u smash a finger. First it started with a smash then that feeling passes through your sensory nerves which pass through your whole body ending at the brain which makes u feel pain. That is an afferent neuron experience.

What are neurons called that detect stimuli in the skin and eye?
sensory neurons
Sensory neorons and neurons are connected by-?
Sensory neurons and neurons are connected by Interneurons.
Are neurons that relay impulses from sensory neurons to motor neurons?
Sensory Neurons
What are neurons that relay impulses from sensory to motor neurons?
Sensory Neurons
Which type of neurons are sensory neurons?
Sensory neurons traveling through the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) are pseudounipolar neurons.
Sensory neurons and motor neurons are connected by?
Sensory neurons and motor neurons are connected by interneurons in the central nervous system. Interneurons help relay signals from sensory neurons to motor neurons, allowing for the coordination of sensory input and motor output in response to various stimuli.
What are the three classes of neuron?
The three classes of neurons are sensory neurons, motor neurons, and interneurons. Sensory neurons transmit sensory information from sensory organs to the central nervous system (CNS), motor neurons carry signals from the CNS to muscles and glands to control movements, and interneurons facilitate communication between sensory and motor neurons within the CNS.
Are sensory neurons afferent neurons?
Yes, sensory neurons are a type of afferent neuron. They carry information from sensory receptors to the central nervous system.
Neurons that serve as links between the sensory neuron and the motor neurons?
interneurons also known as: ASSOCIATION NEURONS
What is the difference between somatic sensory neurons and visceral sensory neurons?
Somatic sensory neurons detect stimuli from the skin, muscles, and joints. Visceral sensory neurons detect stimuli from internal organs such as the heart, lungs, and intestines. Both types of neurons transmit sensory information to the central nervous system for processing.
How do sensory neurons and monitor neurons differ?
Sensory neurons carry sensory information from the body to the brain, while motor neurons carry signals from the brain to the body to control movement. Monitor neurons are specialized neurons that help regulate and coordinate the activity of other neurons in the nervous system.
The part of a spinal nerve that contains only sensory neurons is the?
The part of a spinal nerve that contains only sensory neurons is called the ventral root. There's also the axons of motor neurons and axons of sensory neurons.
