Neuron that's sends message to the brain?
Afferent
What part of the neuron sends information to others?
Presynaptic neuron sends postsynaptic receives
What type of neuron that interpretes message and sends out command?
That would be an interneuron otherwise known as an associative neuron.
What is the difference between associate neuron and motor neuron?
motor neurons are linked to the muscles and obviously sends a message for muscles to move
What part of the neuron would be responsible for notifing the brain that you hurt yourself?
Sensory nerve fibers carry message to brain. A part of neuron or or single neuron does not carry this message to the brain.
Where does a motor neuron send its message?
The Motor in an abafatirc muscle so it sends an inpluse to the heart
How does reflex occur?
This is what happens:a receptor detects a stimulus (change in the environment)a sensory neuron sends a signal to the relay neuronthe relay neuron sends the signal to the motor neuronthe motor neuron sends a signal to the affected partthe affected part produces a response
Trace how a message is passed from one neuron to another?
A neuron sends a message, or neurotransmitter, to the muscle cell to tell it what to do. To get the message, the receiving cell must have a receptor. Oddly, the unstable protein rapsyn is responsible for anchoring the receptor so it's properly positioned to catch the message.
How does neuronal firing cause muscle contraction?
When a neuron in a muscle is fired, or triggered, it sends a message to the brain telling the muscle to contract.
What part of the body sends a message to the brain?
Your nervous system sends messages from the body to the brain. Different kinds of Neurons are used to send each message, to allow your brain to know what is going on in your environment. The things that cause a reaction are called Stimuli. Messages are sent along nerve cells, or Neurons. For instance, if you prick your finger on a pin, a sensor in your skin called a Receptor sends a message of pain through a Sensory Neuron, to a Relay neuron in your Central Nervous System (which is your brain and spinal cord). The message is then sent through the CNS, to the brain, so your brain can decide how to react to the pain. The message is THEN sent through a motor neuron, which causes your muscles to move to react to the message. (Something that reacts to a message from a neuron is called an Effector- because it causes an effect.) In this case, the message from the motor neuron to the effector- your muscle- would make you pull your hand back, to get it away from the pin. In short: A change in your environment, like pain, is picked up by a Receptor. The message picked up by the Receptor is sent through a Sensory Neuron. The message is then sent through the Central Nervous System by Relay Neuron. Once the brain has decided what to do, it sends a message to the Motor Neuron. The Motor Neuron triggers an Effector (a muscle, or some chemical secretion) to react to the change. It may not be completely correct, but I'm 90% sure that's at least a rough, simple version.
What is the junction where the axon terminal of a sending neuron communicates?
The question isn't clear enough. Does it mean the part that sends info. through the neuron (the axon)? Or does it mean the part that sends information to other neurons (the synapse)?
The part of the neuron that decided if the message will travel to the next neuron or not is the what?
The axon terminal is the part of the nerve responsible for sending the message at all. Not only does it send the message, though, it has branching paths which allow it to determine which path it'll go on.
