Motor neurons
fu
Axons conduct the nerve impulses. Dendrites receive the impulses. Possible the impulses go through the dendrites faster, though the synaptic cleft may slow this pathway. Dendrites are much shorter than axons.
peripheral nerve system
spinothalamic, it is a somatosensory pathway
Afferent pathways communicate sensory information (e.g. pain, cold) from your sensory organs to your central nervous system. Efferent pathways communicate information from your central nervous system to your effector organs (e.g. muscles and glands).
the control center anazlyzes the input and determines the appropriate respone, and and activates the effector by sending info along the efferent pathway

An abnormal, rapid heart rhythm, due to an extra pathway for the electrical impulses to travel from the atria to the ventricles.
synaptic gaps.
a nerve cell forming part of a pathway along which impulses pass from the brain or spinal cord to a muscle or gland.
