Stepping on a drawing pin with bare feet from this what is the receptors?

Stepping on a drawing pin activates nociceptors, which are sensory receptors responsible for detecting pain. These receptors send signals through sensory neurons to the spinal cord and brain, alerting you to the injury. Additionally, mechanoreceptors may be involved in sensing the pressure and texture of the pin. This rapid response is part of the body's protective mechanism to withdraw from harmful stimuli.


Fuel tank shows empty when full on Ford Transit?

It could be something in the fuel-sending unit or a float has leaks which causes the fuel to remain at the bottom. The latter signals the sensor to send the warning.


What is the projection tract?

The projection tract refers to bundles of nerve fibers in the central nervous system that transmit signals between different regions of the brain and spinal cord. These tracts are essential for relaying sensory information to the brain and motor commands from the brain to the body. Examples include the corticospinal tract, which conveys motor signals from the cortex to the spinal cord, and sensory tracts that carry information from the periphery to the brain. Overall, projection tracts play a crucial role in coordinating complex bodily functions and responses.


Does the SA node controlled by the brain require signals from the autonomic nervous system to send the impulses for the cardiac muscle to contract?

No. The nodes are automatic. They start the pulses by themselves. This is called an automatic pacemaker. They have no external nerve or hormonal control.


How does a GPS satellite work with a GPS device?

signals from at least 3 satellites send signals to and receive signals from the gps which are then triangulated to give the exact position of the GPS unit. Most GPS units are receive only. That is they must receive positional and timing information from the GPS satellite constellation. The internal processor them computes your position based upon this data(triangulation). Generally receiving data from three or more satellite's is needed to be produce a good fix (your position) but this is also dependent upon the geometry of the satellites. The best fixes are obtained when you have signals from three or more satellites which are geometrically separated by 45 degrees.

Sensory neuron is to motor neuron as?

Sensory neuron is to motor neuron...as feedback system is to control system. The motor neurons send signals from the brain to control the body. The sensory neurons send signals from the body back to the brain.


Where do neurons send signals in the human body?

Neurons send signals to other neurons, muscles, and glands in the human body.


How many major classes of neurons are there?

There are three major classes of neurons: sensory neurons, which receive information from the external environment; interneurons, which process and integrate this information; and motor neurons, which send signals to muscles and glands to produce a response.


How does the brain send and receive messages from our body?

The brain sends and receives messages from the body through the nervous system. Nerve cells, or neurons, transmit electrical and chemical signals to communicate information. Sensory neurons carry signals from the body to the brain, while motor neurons send signals from the brain to the muscles and glands.


What sensory neurons to motor neurons?

Sensory neurons (afferent neurons) send sensory signals from the body to the Central Nervous System. Their cell bodies are always found in a ganglion outside the central nervous system. Motor neurons (efferent neurons) send signals from the central nervous system to the muscles and glands of the body. Their cell bodies are always located in the central nervous system.


How do sensory neurons and motor neurons act in opposite ways?

Sensory neurons transmit signals from sensory receptors towards the central nervous system to detect external stimuli, while motor neurons transmit signals from the central nervous system to muscles and glands to initiate a response or action. In this way, sensory neurons bring information in and motor neurons send information out to carry out a response.


Human Nerve Cells?

Nerve cells specialized on transmitting messages from one part of the body to another. Motor neurons send information away from the central nervous system (CNS). Sensory neurons send information toward the CNS. Inter-neurons send information between motor and sensory neurons.


What does each do?

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


Neurons that carry signals from the CNS to skeletal are part?

Neurons that carry signals from the central nervous system (CNS) to skeletal muscles are known as somatic motor neurons. These neurons are responsible for controlling voluntary movements of the body by transmitting signals that stimulate muscle contractions.


What neuron carries impulses from the central nervous system to a muscle?

not sure , but i think they are called motor neurons and they are part of the PNS system


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.
