What are the function of motor?
The function is to catch/take impulses from the central nervous system and send it to muscles and glands
What are the function of motor neuron?
The function is to catch/take impulses from the central nervous system and send it to muscles and glands
What does the voluntary nervous system control?
the somatic system control everything
How are pain receptors different from somatic receptors?
Somatic senses have adaptability, which means that continuous stimulation will decrease its response over time, take for example sweets: after eating overly sweet food like candies or cake try taking some juice or something less sugared, it won't have any taste or will taste bitter. Pain receptors on the other hand don't adapt, so they keep sending nervous impulses as long as the nocive stimulus is still there, this is the reason there's chronic pain.
What neurons make up the peripheral nervous system?
Unified network of communications, but on an anatomical basis, it is divided into two primary portions. Which peripheral nervous system is the second portion.The spinal cordThe peripheral nervous system consists of autonomic and the somatic nervous systems.
Three differences between sensory neurone and motor neurone?
# Motor neurones have cell bodies inside the Central Nervous System (CNS) whilst in sensory neurones the cell body is located outside of the CNS # Motor neurones transmit impulses from the CNS to the effector which brings about a response to the situation, sensory neurones transmit impulses from to the CNS from the receptor. # Sensory neurones transmit impulses as a result of external stimuli such as pressure, light, temperature etc. Motor neurone transmit impulses passed along the CNS to the effector.
How do you take care of the senses and the nervous system?
You can take care of the senses and the nervous system by eating foods that are high in B vitamins. These are known to support the nervous system and senses.
Why is the nervous system so slow compared to the endodrine system?
It's not, the nervous system is much faster than the endocrine system.The nature of the messages. The nervous system's messages are transported as electrical impulses/neurotransmitters, whereas the endocrine system transports messages as hormonesThe transport of the messages. The messages in the nervous system are transported along the membrane of neurons. The endocrine system transports hormones though the bloodstreamBecause of this, the nervous system usually produces a response within milliseconds, whereas the endocrine system may take seconds to days to respond. The duration of the response also differs between the two systems, the nervous system stops quickly after the stimulant stops, but the endocrine response may continue after the stimulus is removed.
What are the major components of the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system?
CNS = central nervous system (brain and spinal cord)PNS = peripheral nervous system (that part of the nervous system that extends outside the central nervous system)
What is the difference between a sensory neuron and a motor neuron?
motor neuron=A neuron that conveys impulses from the central nervous system to a muscle, gland, or other effector tissue. sensory neuron= nerves that take in information from either the outside or from within the body.Sensory neurons receive impulses from your eyes, ears, tongue, nose and skin.Motor areas control your muscle during movement.andA sensory neuron is a nerve cell that transmits impulses to the central nervous system (spinal cord or brain). It is information such as taste, touch, hot, cold, sound, sight or pain. It's cell body is located just outside the central nervous system and has a very short axon which leads into the nervous system. A motor neuron is a nerve cell that transmits direction to muscles and organs from the central nervous system to perform some function. The motor neurones cell body is located in the central nervous system and has a long axon (longest in body is around 1m) This is how these two are different.hop
What part of nervous system carry all spinal nerves?
The nervous system consists of the brain, spinal cord, and a complex network of neurons. This system is responsible for sending, receiving, and interpreting information from all parts of the body. The nervous system monitors and coordinates internal organ function and responds to changes in the external environment. This system can be divided into two parts: the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. Let's take a look at the peripheral nervous system.Peripheral Nervous SystemThere are two types of cells in the peripheral nervous system. These cells carry information to (sensory nervous cells) and from (motor nervous cells) the central nervous system (CNS). Cells of the sensory nervous system send information to the CNS from internal organs or from external stimuli. Motor nervous system cells carry information from the CNS to organs, muscles, and glands. The motor nervous system is divided into the somatic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system. The somatic nervous system controls skeletal muscle as well as external sensory organs such as the skin. This system is said to be voluntary because the responses can be controlled consciously. Reflex reactions of skeletal muscle however are an exception. These are involuntary reactions to external stimuli.The autonomic nervous system controls involuntary muscles, such as smooth and cardiac muscle. This system is also called the involuntary nervous system. The autonomic nervous system can further be divided into the parasympathetic and sympathetic divisions.The parasympathetic division controls various functions which include inhibiting heart rate, constricting pupils, and contracting the bladder. The nerves of the sympathetic division often have an opposite effect when they are located within the same organs as parasympathetic nerves. Nerves of the sympathetic division speed up heart rate, dilate pupils, and relax the bladder. The sympathetic system is also involved in the flight or fight response. This is a response to potential danger that results in accelerated heart rate and an increase in metabolic rate.Thats all I know about a nervous system and spinal nerves hope it is helpful.
How do you take of our nervous system?
I don't belive you could just turn off your Nervous system. It is allways in action with everything you do.
