Efferent neuron
efferent (carrying away) neuron
Motor neurons
Motor neurons are the neurons that conduct impulses from the central nervous system to cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, and glandular epithelial tissue. These types of nerves are what make up the Autonomic nervous system, which regulates the bodies involuntary functions.
smooth muscle
Muscle tissue cannot conduct nerve impulses from one neuron to the other. Moreover, skeletal muscle tissue cannot even pass impulses between themselves and they should be stimulated by single branches of neurons. However, cardiac muscle cells has the unique ability to conduct impulses between themselves through gap junctions.
a nerve cell forming part of a pathway along which impulses pass from the brain or spinal cord to a muscle or gland.
Motor neurons are neurons which carry impulses from the Central Nervous System to muscles or glands. When an action potential is conducted by a motor neuron a muscle contracts or a product is released from a gland.
nervous tissue.
Ability to conduct impulses along the muscle membrane.
autonomic neurons
It would be more accurate to say that the neurons transmit the impulses, rather than that they receive them.
the dendrites pick up msgs from other neurons lying nearby.they pass the msg to the cellbody, and then along the axon, the axon might then pass it on to another neurones. from the receptorto the sensory neuron to the relay neurons to the motor neuron to the muscle
The function is to catch/take impulses from the central nervous system and send it to muscles and glands
