somatic nervous system
Nervous stystem.
he somatic nervous system (SoNSOr voluntary nervous system) is the part of the peripheral nervous system associated with the voluntary control of body movements via skeletal muscles. The SoNS consists of efferent nerves responsible for stimulating muscle contraction, including all the non-sensory neurons connected with skeletal muscles and skin.
Motor neurons are responsible for transmitting signals from the central nervous system to muscles or glands, allowing for voluntary movement or secretion. On the other hand, sensory neurons detect information from the external environment or the body and transmit it to the central nervous system, enabling us to perceive sensory stimuli such as touch, temperature, pain, or sound. In summary, motor neurons control movement and actions, while sensory neurons provide information about the external world to the brain.
Because perception occurs in the brain, and neurons can be fired by other associated neurons, and even spontaneously, as in a sensory deprivation tank.
Neurons or the nerve cells are the basic unit of nervous system. Based on their function (as in whether they transmit impulse from the CNS or to the CNS) neurons are classified as sensory neurons (carry impulses to the CNS), motor neurons (carry impulses from the CNS to the target organ) and mixed neurons which perform both the functions. The neurons can also be classified based on the number of associated axons or even presence or absences of axons.
Interneurons or association neurons.
All voluntary actions are overseen by the central nervous system. The somatic nervous system is a collection of effector neurons, and part of the peripheral nervous system, that relay the commands from the CNS (central nervous system) to its respectable muscles.
yes
A somatic system
cell bodies of unipolar neurons
No, that would be Acetylcholine
Apex: Neurons and glands.
third order neuron
Neutrons, like protons, consist of three quarks.

There are three types of neurons. 1.Sensory neurons: which carry impulses from the sense organs to the brain and spinal cord. 2.Motor neurons : which perform an opposite function to that of sensory neurons by carrying impulses from the brain and spinal cord to muscles and glands. 3. Inter neurons : which connect sensory and motor neurons and carry impulses between them.
Inter-neurons
I believe you mean autonomic neurons (part of the ANS) and yes, they can be sensory neurons. Sensory neurons are the same as afferent neurons--meaning they carry signals towards the CNS. Think as afferent as 'approaching'. Anyhow, these neurons sense the conditions of your visceral organs and whatnot. Other wise it would have no information to judge for what signals to send. So yes, autonomic neurons consist of both sensory (afferent) and motor (efferent) neurons.
