The main difference is that motor neurons move signals away from the central nervous system and spinal cord where as sensory neurons move signals towards the central nervous system and spinal cord.

∙ 12y agoSensory neurons carry the impulse generated by the stimulus to the central nervous system, interneurons then carry the impulse through the central nervous system and the motor neurons then take the impulse from the central nervous system to effectors such as muscles and glands.

∙ 14y agoThere are multiple differences in physical anatomy of neurons, but the basic difference is that motor neurons are responsible for carrying messages away from the brain, while sensory neurons are responsible for relaying information to the brain.

A knee-jerk reflex employs motor neurons and what?
it employs sensory and motor neurons
Three kinds of neurons?
1.sensory neuron- carry impulses from the sensory receptors to the Central Nervous System 2.motor neurons- carry impulses from the Central Nervous System to the muscles and glans 3.association neuron- relay impulses netween sensory and motor neurons -------------------- AD go to bookden.webs.com .. a website for booklovers.. thx
What is a neuron connecting sensory and motor neurons?
Associated Neurons a.k.a Interneurons, lie between motor and sensory neurons in neutral pathways where intergeneration occurs. Most interneurons are confined within the CNS.
Sensory neurons and motor neurons are connected by?
Interneurons
Which type of neurone transmits the impulse from a motor to a sensory neurone?
No, not directly. Some sensory neurons can detect the effect of a motor neuron firing.
What is between sensory neurons and motor neurons?
sensory has to do with your smell tast motor has to do with your moving around and you acttion
A knee-jerk reflex employs motor neurons and what?
it employs sensory and motor neurons
What is neurons that serve as links between the sensory neurons and the motor neurons?
interneuron
What are the neurons that serve as links between sensory neurons and motor neurons?
interneuron
What are neurons that carry information between sensory neurons and motor neurons?
Interneurons or association neurons.
What are similarities between sensory and motor neuron?
Motor neuron has got a motor.. but you have to peddle sensory neurons.
What is a neuron that serves as links between the sensory neurons and the motor neurons?
interneuron
Are neurons that relay impulses from sensory neurons to motor neurons?
Sensory Neurons
What are neurons that relay impulses from sensory to motor neurons?
Sensory Neurons
What kind of neurons serve as links between the sensory neurons and the motor neurons?
Interneurons are the neurons that make up the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord). They internally communicate between the input from sensory neurons and our physical reaction triggered by the motor neurons.
What sensory neurons to motor neurons?
Sensory neurons (afferent neurons) send sensory signals from the body to the Central Nervous System. Their cell bodies are always found in a ganglion outside the central nervous system. Motor neurons (efferent neurons) send signals from the central nervous system to the muscles and glands of the body. Their cell bodies are always located in the central nervous system.
What is an intraneural communication?
Communication between sensory and motor neurons.
