A knee-jerk reflex employs motor neurons and what?
it employs sensory and motor neurons
What function type are motor neurons?
motor neurons carry message from inter neurons and transmit it to different parts of the body.
What is the direction of impulse for motor neurons?
The direction of impulse for motor neurons is away from the brain.
Sensory neurons and motor neurons are connected by?
Interneurons
What is the similarities of neurons and motor neurons?
Functionally, neurons come in three varieties; motor neurons, sensory neurons and interneurons. Motor neurons conduct motor impulses from the CNS to the muscles. Sensory neurons conduct motor impulses from the rest of the body to the CNS. Interneurons connect the sensory to the motor so we can respond to incoming sensory stimuli.
How do damaged motor neurons affect muscles?
Often, a disorder of the motor neurons results in progressive muscle atrophy (shrinking and wasting) of some, if not all, the muscles of the body. Muscle twitching (fasciculation) is common among these disorders
A knee-jerk reflex employs motor neurons and what?
it employs sensory and motor neurons
What neurons carry motor impulses?
Motor neurons
What type of neurons are multipolar?
Motor neurons and intern neurons
Are neurons that relay impulses from sensory neurons to motor neurons?
Sensory Neurons
Can undamaged neurons make new connection with damaged neurons?
yes
What is A neuron that can cause muscles to contract?
Efferent motor neurons stimulate muscle contractions.
What are neurons that relay impulses from sensory to motor neurons?
Sensory Neurons
What function type are motor neurons?
motor neurons carry message from inter neurons and transmit it to different parts of the body.
What is the direction of impulse for motor neurons?
The direction of impulse for motor neurons is away from the brain.
What are two parts of the peripheral nervous system?
sensory neurons and motor neurons
What are neurons that carry information between sensory neurons and motor neurons?
Interneurons or association neurons.
