There is no one 'neuron' - different aspects of your foot are supplied by different nerves, each of which contains many neurons. Mainly the innervation of the foot comes from the tibial and the common peroneal (fibular) nerves, both of which branch from the sciatic nerve.

How does a message travel from one neuron to the next?
It travels from the brain to the Spinal Cord.
Define relay neuron?
a relay neuron is the neuron that picks up the message from the sensory neuron and delivers it to the motor neuron in the spinal cord or the brain
What is the function of relay neuron?
A relay neuron is the neuron that picks up the message from the sensory neuron and delivers it to the motor neuron in the spinal cord then to the brain.
How does a neuron sends messages to a cell?
I think the brain makes a shock and goes down to your spinal cord and goes to the cell
What is a motor neuron attached to?
A Motor neuron is a neuron that carries impulses from the spinal cord to muscle cells.A Motor neuron is a neuron that carries impulses from the spinal cord to muscle cells.
Why do you need a brain stem?
It is what controls your basic functions such as breathing and your heart.
What are the sequence of events that occur within the nervous system from the point you touched the hot stove with your hand to the point you jerked your hand away from the stove?
1. Sensory Receptors detect danger(eg. hot stove in this case) 2. Signal is sent through a sensory neuron to the spinal cord 3.Interneuron in the spinal cord relays the message to the motor neuron 4.Motor neuron sends a message to the effector(eg. muscle) 5. Hand jerks away Sensory neuron also sends a sinal to the brain. Sensation of the evernt is detected continuosly but usually after the defensive action has been taken.
Trace the sequences of events whichoccurs when you touch a hot object?
the sensory neuron collects the information and sends to CNS (spinal cord) and it sends to motor neuron and to effectors and finally response ,and so hand is moved & saved from accident
What part sends messages from your brain and spinal cord to muscle cells?
Electrical impulses travel from the brain along the spinal cord and nerve fibers to the muscles.Brain send the message via nerve impulses involving neurons which use the neuro-transmitter Acetylcholine.
What sends messages to your brain and spinal cord and muscle cells?
Synapses let the "message" travel to muscle cells.
What is the meaning of neuron?
The brain and spinal cord; the cerebro-spinal axis; myelencephalon.
Do reflexes always involve the spinal cord?
Yes, the spinal cord controls ALL of your reflexes!
