Efferent neurons are not the most abundant type of neuron, as interneurons make up the majority of neurons in the central nervous system. Efferent neurons, also known as motor neurons, transmit signals from the central nervous system to muscles and glands to elicit a response.
The most abundant class of neuron in the central nervous system is the interneuron. Interneurons are responsible for forming connections between sensory and motor neurons, allowing for communication within the central nervous system to process information and generate appropriate responses.
Central Nervous System!
Interneurons
Motor neurons carry instructions from the central nervous system to effector organs. They are a part of the peripheral nervous system and transmit signals to muscles and glands, causing them to contract or secrete in response to stimuli.
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.
Sensory neurons detect stimuli and transmit signals to the central nervous system. Motor neurons carry signals from the central nervous system to muscles or glands to produce a response. Interneurons operate within the central nervous system to process and relay information between sensory and motor neurons.
The central nervous system is made up of two main types of neurons: sensory neurons, which transmit information from the body to the brain, and motor neurons, which transmit information from the brain to the body.
Skeletal muscles are controlled by motor neurons in the somatic branch of the peripheral nervous system, which is controlled by the central nervous system.
The three types of neurons are sensory(afferant) neurons, interneurons, and motor(efferant) neurons. Sensory, or afferent, neurons send information from the receptor to the central nervouse system. Interneurons, found only in the central nervous system, play the role of interpretting the impulse. The motor, or efferent, neurons send the information from the central nervous system to the effector. Receptor->sensory neuron->interneuron->motor neuron->effector.
The peripheral nervous system is the portion of the nervous system away from the central nervous system. It consists of nerves that connect the central nervous system to the rest of the body, including sensory and motor neurons. The peripheral nervous system is responsible for transmitting information to and from the central nervous system.
