What is the peripheral nevorus system?

It is located outside of the central nervous system and consists of nerves and sensory receptors, it carries impulses formed by receptors, such as pain and sound receptors, to the CNS and it carries impulses from the CNS to effectors, glands and muscles that carry out actions directed by the CNS


Nerves that transmit impulses to the CNS are called?

motor


When a group of neurons that carry impulses from the CNS to effectors are clustered together they are called what?

Motor neurons.


What types of neuron carries impulses away from the CNS?

Motorneurons


Carries impulses between the periphery and CNS areas?

Spinal Cord


Which fiber tract carries impulses from the cerebrum to lower CNS areas?

The corticospinal tract carries impulses from the cerebrum to lower CNS areas, primarily to control voluntary movements throughout the body. It is involved in motor function and helps in coordinating muscle movements.


Messages from the CNS are sent to what?

effectors which are muscles


What is the fiber tract that carries impulses to the cerebrum and then to the lower CNS called?

The fiber tract that carries impulses to the cerebrum and then to the lower CNS is called the corticospinal tract. It is involved in voluntary motor control and starts from the primary motor cortex in the cerebrum and descends to the spinal cord.


The part of the peripheral nervous system that carries the sensory information to the CNS is designated?

The afferent division of the PNS carries impulses inward to a central organ or section, as nerves that conduct impulses from the periphery of the body to the brain or spinal cord


What carries impulses from the cerebrum to lower CNS?

The cerebral peduncles carry motor impulses from the cerebrum to the lower central nervous system, specifically the brainstem. These impulses are responsible for controlling voluntary movements and coordinating motor functions.


An efferent neuron carries impulses in the direction opposite of?

opposite of an afferent neuron. an efferent neuron goes from the central nervous system to the organ in the body that will perform the required action.


Muscles and glands that are capable of responding to nerve impulses are called what?

Effectors.
