Cranial nerves is classified as mixed nerve?
Spinal nerves are called mixed nerves because they all carry motor, sensory, and autonomic signals between the spinal cord and the body.
What organ carries information between the brain and the rest body?
AnswerAfferent sensory neurons carry the impulses from the receptors (afferent sensory organs) to the spinal cord and/or the brain.
What part of the peripheral nervous system carries the sensory and motor information to and from the central nervous system?
You have thousands of nerves that are part of the PNS.Divisions of the peripheral nervous system include the afferent (sensory) division and the efferent (motor) division. The nerves coming from all the senses and the nerves going to glands and muscles are included.The efferent division is divided further into the somatic motor nervous system and thesomatic nervous system which includes all voluntary motor pathways outside the central nervous system.
Neurons that carry impulses away from the central nervous system?
Nerves that only carry impulses away from the central nervous system (CNS) are called:Motor Nerves
What are the cells that carry impulses from the sense organs to the bran and then to the spinal chord?
sensory neurons
What does the dorsal root of the spinal cord carry?
The dorsal root of the spinal nerves carry sensory information to the brain and is hence an afferent pathway.
A mixed nerve contains which type of nerves?
a mixed nerve carry both motor and sensory nerves
What do nerves of somatic nervous system control?
The nerves of the somatic nervous system control many different things. They carry the sensory data into the spinal cord, carry information into and out of the brain stem, and integrate sensory input and motor output.
What carries sensory information to the spinal cord?
The major descending motor tract FROM the cerebrum is the corticospinal tract. The major ascending sensory tracts TO the cerebrum are the sensorimotor tract and the dorsal column lemniscal system.
What nerves carry impulses to the brain and spinal cord?
remember the word SAMESensory are AfferentMotor are Efferent
What are the nerves that gather information from the environment and carry it to the CNS?
The sensory nerves
Are dorsal and ventral roots spinal nerves?
The ventral roots contains motor fibers, responsible for motion, whereas the dorsal sensory fibers, responsible for touch and feeling.
Do descending fiber tracts of the spinal cord carry sensory or motor information?
The ascending tracts carry information to the brain.
Cranial nerves is classified as mixed nerve?
Spinal nerves are called mixed nerves because they all carry motor, sensory, and autonomic signals between the spinal cord and the body.
What tracts the spinal cord carry sensory information to the brain?
spinothalamic
What tracts of the spinal cord carry sensory information to the brain?
spinothalamic
Can a nerve fibre and nerve both carry sensory and motor impulses?
There are the Mixed Nerves in the spinal column that carry both sensory and motor nerves, but these neurons have 2 different jobs that they do,& I know of no neurons doing both as the impulses travel to 2 different locations which couldn't be done at the same time.
