Is the impulse transmission for the spinal nerve sensory or motor?
No
What type of fibers make up the posterior and anterior roots of the spinal nerve?
Both Afferent and Efferentboth sensory and motorContains motor & sensory fibers!The spinal cord consists of nerve fibers that are afferent and efferent.
A response caused by the spinal cord interpreting an impulse from sensory receptors?
Reflex
What is a movement caused by the spinal cord interpreting an impulse from sensory receptors?
a reflex
Which type of neurons carries impulse from sense organs to spinal cord or brain?
Sensory neurons
What is the sensory neuron function?
Sensory information is transmitted by the sensory neurons. They are nerve cells that convey data to spinal cord and brain.
What type of nerve fibers are found in the ventral ramus of a spinal nerve?
Both sensory and motor
What spinal nerve is made of?
Spinal nerves (aka mixed spinal nerves) are formed from the dorsal and ventral roots coming out of the spinal cord.A spinal nerve is made of mixed nerves. They have both sensory and a motor aspect. The roots of sensory fibers are on the dorsal side of the spinal cord.

First step in a reflex arc?
A reflex arc involves the following components:The receptor is the part of the neuron (usually a dendrite) that detects a stimulus.The sensory neuron transmits the impulse to the spinal cord.The integration center involves one synapse (monosynaptic reflex arc) or two or more synapses (polysynaptic reflex arc) in the gray matter of the spinal cord.A motor neuron transmits a nerve impulse from the spinal cord to a peripheral region.An effector is a muscle or gland that receives the impulse from the motor neuron. In somatic reflexes, the effector is skeletal muscle. In autonomic (visceral) reflexes, the effector is smooth or cardiac muscle, or a gland.
How does information from the sensory receptorsin the skin get to the brain?
The initial sensory receptor detects a change e.g temperature. This is sent as an electrical impulse via a series of sensory receptors to the spine, if there is a problem a reflex occurs. If there is no problem the impulse is transmitted to the brain through the spinal cord.
Spinal nerve contains both motor and sensory nerve fibers for 2-way communications?
yes
