What is the bundle of nerve fibers that send messages to the brain which interprets them?
The nerves that carry impulses toward the brain are called efferent nerves. Afferent nerves carry impulses away. In way to remember this is afferent equals away.
How do sensory neurons and motor neurons act in opposite ways?
Sensory neurons carry impulses from the sense organs to the brain and the spinal cord . Motor neurons carry impulses from the brain and spinal cord to muscles or glands.
What type of nerve sends messages from sense organs to the brain?
This is simple; don't overthink it. The nerves that carry sensory impulses to the brain are the sensory nerves.
Which structure consists of the medulla midbrain and pons?
The brain stem. The medulla oblongata is found in the brain stem and holds the pathways of communication between the spinal cord and the various sections of the brain. The ponsis the bridge that connects the spinal cord to the brain and various brain parts to each other. This part of the brain stem works with the medulla to help control respiration. The midbrain is the final piece of the brain stem. This section deals with motor and sensory nerve bundles. These nerves carry impulses from the cerebral cortex to the pons and the spinal cord. The midbrain also contains nerves that conduct energy to the thalamus.
What nerve carries the action potentials from the ganglion cells to the thalamus of the brain?
The optic nerves carry the impulses from the eyes to the visual area of the thalamus.
What nerve carries impulses through the spinal cord?
The spinal cord and the abdomen, limbs, and chest. Spinal nerves carry impulses between the spinal cord and the abdomen, limbs, and chest. Cranial nerves carry impulses between the brain and the neck and head.
What is the bundle of nerve fibers that send messages to the brain which interprets them?
The nerves that carry impulses toward the brain are called efferent nerves. Afferent nerves carry impulses away. In way to remember this is afferent equals away.
What is the part of the body made up of bundles of neurons that carry impulses from all parts of the body to the brain and from the brain to all parts of the body?
The nervous system carries impulses to and from the brain by way of neurons. The bundles are called nerves. Sensory nerves bring impulses into the spinal cord and brain and motor neuron carry impulses away from the brain and spinal cord to the muscles and glands.
What is function of spinal nerves?
The spinal nerves carry impulses between the spinal cord and the body parts.
What does spinal nerves control?
the spinal nerves carry impulses between the spinal cord and body parts.
What does nerves control?
the spinal nerves carry impulses between the spinal cord and body parts.
What is the function of spinal nerves- afferent?
They carry nerve impulses from your sensory organs, like your eyes, to your brain, or your central nervous system (CNS). When your eyes see something shiny on the ground, your afferent nerves tell your brain what your eyes see. In contrast, efferent nerves carry nerve impulses from your brain to parts of your body. So, when you see something shiny on the ground, your brain tells you to pick it up and look at it. Efferent = "Exiting", the nerves impulses are exiting your brain. Afferent = the opposite
What is the function of the spinal nerves?
I would suggest looking on wikipedia! I would suggest looking on wikipedia!
What carry the impulses from the ear to the brain?
nerves
What Nerve to the brain triggers pain?
Afferent nerves carry impulses to the CNS (central nervous system: brain/spinal chord).
Which nerves carry sound impulses from the inner ear of the brain?
The auditory nerve carries auditory impulses to the brain.
What is the difference between sensory nerve and motor nerves?
Sensory nerves carry impulses to the brain (as sights seen, sounds heard, etc.). Motor nerves carry impulses from the brain to cause the body to do things such as move muscles.
