The basic units of the brain, spinal cord, and nerves that process, store, and transmit information are the?
neurons??
What are the tiny structures that store and transmit information in the brain?
They are called neurons.
Most of the neurons in the brain and spinal cord are?
most of the neurons in the brain and spinal cord are
How does the brain transmit messages to the body using neurons and spinal cord?
brain transmit messages to the body using neurons and spinal cord. ... Motor neurons carry messages away from the brain and back to the rest of the body. the central neurons system does many jobs at the same time. It controls all voluntary movement, such as speech and walking, and involuntary movements like blinking and breathing. It is also the core of our thoughts, perceptions, and emotions.
What is an afferent neuron?
Afferent neurons are those that transmit signals from sensory transducers to the central nervous system (i.e., the spinal cord and the brain). The complementary group of neurons are the efferent neurons that transmit signals from the central nervous system to effectors, that generate a response to the environmental input.
What does the nervous system use to relay on messages to the body?
Sensory Neurons- they detect stimuli and transmit signals to the brain and the spinal cord, which are both made up of interneurons
What relays information for muscles?
Sensory neurons carry signals from the receptors in our body (e.g. thermal, pressure etc.) to the relay neurons, which are found in our spinal cord. Relay neurons then send signals along the spinal cord to the brain. The brain then processes the information and sends a signal back down the spinal cord, through the relay neurons. Relay neurons then sends signals to motor neurons, which will then affect the muscles' movements.Read more: What_does_neuron_cells_do
What works in the nervous system?
The brain, the spinal cord plus all the fibers of neurons that bring information in and out of the brain and cord.
What neurons carry impulses from the brain or spinal cord to other organs and cause muscles to contract?
Impulses from the brain go mostly through the channels in the spinal cord and control most everything that goes on in the body. It is a two way street with information generated chemicals being carried throughout the body.The brain uses neurons to decide what information is acted upon.
The basic units of the brain spinal cord and nerves that process store and transmit information are the?
nuerons
What does each do?

Is our spinal cord made of bundles of neurons that carry impulses from all parts of the body to the brain and from the brain to all the parts of your body?
Yes, the spinal cord is made up of bundles of neurons called nerve tracts or tracts of white matter. These tracts carry sensory information from different parts of the body to the brain, as well as transmit motor signals from the brain to various parts of the body to control movement.
