Why does the body have both sensory and motor neurones?

the body has both sensory and motor neurones because the sensory neurones sense what is happening and sends the message along and like a motor the motor neurones pass on the message constantly round and round until it reaches its destination

What carries information to the brain to be interpreted?

Sensory neurons are responsible for carrying information from sensory receptors to the brain. These neurons transmit signals related to touch, taste, smell, sight, and hearing which are then interpreted by the brain.


What is the connection between sensory nerves and the neurons in the brain?

Both use neurones which transmit in via action potential and synaptic transmission. Sensory neurones include pain neurones which enter directly into the brain, which perceives the stimulus as pain and gives emotional and motor responses accordingly. Sensory neurones also perceive homeostasis, in that they sense stimuli outside physiological norms and change homeostasis in order to rectify the problem. All motor and limbic (emotional) outputs from the brain are stimulated and therefore initiated by sensory neurone inputs. The spine relys information from peripheral sensory neurones to the brain, and is the literal connection between sensory neurones and the brain.


What is a sensory neurones?

A sensory neuron is one that brings information about environmental simuli to the brain. It may also be called an afferent neuron.


DIvision of the nervous system brings sensory information to the central nervous system?

The afferent neurones or Sensory neurones. Further divided to 2 subtypes, the visceral (from inner organs) and somatic (from skin). There is also the cranial nerves which provide information to the CNS.


What neuron carries impulses from receptors to the central nervous system?

Neurons that convey sensory information are called 'sensory neurons' or "afferent neurones"


What is the basic unit of structure and functon of the nervous system?

The nervous system is used to trasmit information around the body. It is made of two systems: the central nervous system (which consists of the spine and brain) and the peripheral nervous system (which consists of neurones and receptors). There are three types of neurones: sensory neurones, relay neurons, and motor neurones.
