The main symptom of upper motor neuron syndrome is?

The main symptom of upper motor neuron syndrome is spasticity, which is characterized by increased muscle tone and exaggerated reflexes. Other common symptoms include muscle weakness, difficulty with fine motor skills, and impaired voluntary movement.


Which neuron is common only in dorsal root ganglia of the spinal cord and sensory ganglia of cranial nerves?

multipolar neuron


The most common type of neuron found in the central nervous?

The most common type of neuron found in the central nervous system is the multipolar neuron. These neurons have many dendrites and a single axon extending from the cell body. Multipolar neurons are involved in processing and transmitting information in the brain and spinal cord.

What is the most common central nervous system neuron and how does it function in the brain?

The most common central nervous system neuron is the multipolar neuron. It functions in the brain by receiving and transmitting electrical signals, allowing for communication between different parts of the brain and the rest of the body.


The cells in the nervous system that receive and send neurotransmitter messages?

impulses travel to and from the central nervous system allowing the brain and spinal cord to control all your other body systems


What best describes a converging circuit?

A converging circuit is a neural pathway where multiple presynaptic neurons synapse onto a single postsynaptic neuron. This type of circuit allows for integration of multiple inputs to influence and scale the output of the postsynaptic neuron. Converging circuits are common in sensory systems where information from different sensory modalities is combined to produce a coherent response.


What are neurotransmitters for postsynaptic neuron?

Neurotransmitters are chemical messengers that transmit signals and information from the presynaptic neuron to the postsynaptic neuron at the synapse. They bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron, leading to changes in its membrane potential and triggering a new signal to be passed along the neural pathway. Some common neurotransmitters include acetylcholine, dopamine, serotonin, and glutamate.


Where is the neuron?

The Inter-neuron (also known as the local circuit neuron, relay neuron or the association neuron) is the neuron which connects the afferent and the efferent neurons in the neural pathways.


What are the differences between axodendritic and axosomatic synapses in terms of their structure and function?

Axodendritic synapses occur between the axon terminal of one neuron and the dendrites of another neuron, while axosomatic synapses occur between the axon terminal and the cell body (soma) of another neuron. In terms of structure, axodendritic synapses are more common and allow for communication between neurons, while axosomatic synapses are less common and are involved in regulating the firing of the postsynaptic neuron.


How does muscle weakness affect patient motor neuron diseases with?

Muscles of the legs are most often affected, leading to clumsiness, unstable gait, or lower limb paralysis. Muscle cramps and fasciculations (twitching) occur with most motor neuron diseases. Facial muscles may also be affected


What is the space between two neurons called?

The space between the ending of one neuron and the communication with the next neuron is called the synapse, or sometimes it is called the synaptic gap or synaptic cleft. But synapse is the common term.
