In a neuron, impulses move from dendrite to axon. These impulses carry energy to different parts of the neuron.
dendrite
Motor neuron diseases are a group of progressive disorders involving the nerve cells responsible for carrying impulses that instruct the muscles in the upper and lower body to move
Dendrites
action potentials
Afferent neurons receive and transmit impulses to the CNS.
to the brain, then to the effector through the motor neuron
The axon, an elongated portion of the neuron, carries impulses to the muscles.
Your neurons are adapted in such a way that impulses move only in one direction.
The efferent neuron carries impulses towards the periphery.
The brain is the control, and the whole reaction of a reflex arc starts with a stimulus, ie, touching a hot flame, the detector of this stimulus being the receptor. The electrical impulses travel through the sensory neuron to which it is then carried to the synapse (impulses reach the brain) the energy is then transferred across the synapse, to the relay neuron and then to the motor neuron, finally reaching the effector, (mainly muscle or gland) to move away the body part.
A Motor neuron is a neuron that carries impulses from the spinal cord to muscle cells.A Motor neuron is a neuron that carries impulses from the spinal cord to muscle cells.
The axon, an elongated portion of the neuron, carries impulses to the muscles.
Fibres which carry impulses towards the cell body of a neuron are called dendrites. The axon is the fibre which carries impulses away from the cell body of a neuron.
