Neurons are part of the peripheral nervous system?
Sensory neuron and motor neuron.
What part of the peripheral nervous tissue electrically insulates the neuron?
neurglia
What are the spinal and cranial nerves ganglia?
Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) original answer by btbchris
An axon of an efferent neuron could synapse with?
An axon of an efferent neuron could synapse with a muscle fiber, gland, or another neuron in the peripheral nervous system.
The Schwann cell forms a myelin sheath around the?
axons of neurons in the peripheral nervous system. The myelin sheath helps to insulate the axon and improve the speed of electrical signal conduction along the neuron. Schwann cells are also involved in nerve regeneration and support neuron function within the peripheral nervous system.
What is a long bundle of neuron that carries messages to and from the body and brain?
Peripheral nervous system.
What is a group of nerve cells?
cranial nerve which 2 pairs arise from neuron cell bodies in forebrain 10 pairs arise from the midbrain and hindbrain spinal nerve 31 pairs grouping into 8 cervical 12 thoracic 5 lumber 5 sacral 1 coccygeal A group of nerve cells or neurons is called ganglia in the peripheral nervous system and nuclei in the brain.
What is a Synonym for sensory neuron?
A synonym for sensory neuron is "afferent neuron." Afferent neurons transmit sensory information from peripheral receptors to the central nervous system, playing a crucial role in processing sensory experiences.
What is a preganglionic neuron?
A preganglionic neuron is a type of neuron located in the central nervous system that forms synapses with ganglionic neurons in the autonomic nervous system. It carries signals from the central nervous system to the ganglia, allowing for communication between the brain and the autonomic nervous system.
Are there synapses in peripheral nervous system?
There are synapses between each and every neuron in the entire nervous system; so yes, there are synapses in the peripheral section of the nervous system.
What kind of neuron has a soma with a dendrite on one side and an axon on the other?
This type of neuron is called a unipolar neuron. It is typically found in the peripheral nervous system and is involved in transmitting sensory information from the body to the central nervous system. The single process that extends from the soma branches into a central and peripheral process, with the central process connecting to the cell body.
The peripheral nervous system is composed of how many pairs of spinal nerves?
31
