True


What is a neuron connecting sensory and motor neurons?

Associated Neurons a.k.a Interneurons, lie between motor and sensory neurons in neutral pathways where intergeneration occurs. Most interneurons are confined within the CNS.


What is the main function of interneuron?

interneurons are located in the brain and spinal cord. They are stimulated by signals reaching them from sensory neurons. they process that information and send a response through the motor neurons.


What neurons are involved in a reflex?

3 neurons are included in the reflex arc. They are: Afferent neurons (take the message to the spinal cord) (sensory) Association neurons (directs message to the efferent neuron and the brain) (report reflex to the brain) Efferent neurons (takes message to effector) (motor) Not all reflexes have interneurons.


What is the link between neuron pathways and learning?

our core learning is recorded in the set of neurons. sensory neurons send decoding messages to the motor neurons. in case the information generated by one set of neurons is insufficient to solve the problem, the inter neurons send furthar questions through the pathways to another set of neurons and carries back the information to the earlier set of neurons. un answered questions get recorded in a new set of neurons as new experience.


What is the majority of all afferent pathways pass through and synapse with neurons?

The motor neuron is the final common pathway for all neurons to travel to complete their synapse. Afferent neurons or unipolar neurons all pass through the cord and brain on this journey.


What is an interneuron?

An interneuron is a special nerve cell that communicates directly between the sensory and motor neurons instead of first going to the brain.
