Do muscles send brain messages?

That last answer was wrong because neurons send messages from muscles. The system that does this is called the nervous system. It's a system made up of neurons NOT nerves. There are tons of different neurons, but the three main neurons include sensory neurons, interneurons, and motor neurons. Motor neurons interact with muscles.


Do motor neurons send impulses to muscles or glands?

Motor neurons send impulses to muscles to stimulate muscle contraction. Glands are typically innervated by autonomic neurons that regulate secretions like hormones and enzymes.

What is most likely to imitate calcium's role in the function of neurons?

What do motor neurones do?

Motor neurons are a part of the nervous system that make muscles move.


What do the lower neurons do?

You are probably speaking of "lower motor neurons." These are neurons that send information from the spinal cord to the muscles of the body & they travel within all most of the nerves of the body (like sciatic, median, etc). These neurons are controlled by "upper motor neurons" and control your muscles to allow you to be able to move.
