Do nerves contain the axons of sensory and motor neurons?

Yes, nerves contain axons of both sensory neurons, which carry information from the body to the brain, and motor neurons, which carry instructions from the brain to the muscles and glands. The axons of sensory and motor neurons are bundled together within nerves to transmit signals throughout the body.


What is the similarities of neurons and motor neurons?

Functionally, neurons come in three varieties; motor neurons, sensory neurons and interneurons. Motor neurons conduct motor impulses from the CNS to the muscles. Sensory neurons conduct motor impulses from the rest of the body to the CNS. Interneurons connect the sensory to the motor so we can respond to incoming sensory stimuli.


A mixed nerve contains which type of nerves?

A mixed nerve contains both sensory and motor nerves. Sensory nerves carry information from sensory receptors to the central nervous system, while motor nerves carry signals from the central nervous system to muscles and glands.


Mixed nerve house?

The mixed nerve house is a term used to describe cranial nerves, such as the trigeminal nerve, that contain both sensory and motor fibers. These nerves perform a combination of functions, including transmitting sensory information like touch and pain sensations as well as controlling muscle movements. The mixed nature of these nerves allows for complex sensory and motor functions to be carried out efficiently.


What is the difference between somatic sensory neurons and visceral sensory neurons?

Somatic sensory neurons detect stimuli from the skin, muscles, and joints. Visceral sensory neurons detect stimuli from internal organs such as the heart, lungs, and intestines. Both types of neurons transmit sensory information to the central nervous system for processing.

Are the limbs innervated by the motor and sensory neurons?

Yes, the limbs are innervated by both motor and sensory neurons.


Is Autonomic ganglia are motor ganglia only?

No, autonomic ganglia can contain both motor and sensory neurons. Motor neurons in autonomic ganglia innervate smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands, while sensory neurons can detect stimuli within the autonomic nervous system.


Types of neurons found in mixed nerves?

Both sensory and motor neurons......


Can a nerve fibre and nerve both carry sensory and motor impulses?

There are the Mixed Nerves in the spinal column that carry both sensory and motor nerves, but these neurons have 2 different jobs that they do,& I know of no neurons doing both as the impulses travel to 2 different locations which couldn't be done at the same time.

How many types of neurons?

There are three types of neurons. 1.Sensory neurons: which carry impulses from the sense organs to the brain and spinal cord. 2.Motor neurons : which perform an opposite function to that of sensory neurons by carrying impulses from the brain and spinal cord to muscles and glands. 3. Inter neurons : which connect sensory and motor neurons and carry impulses between them.

Can atomic neurons be sensory or afferent neurons?

I believe you mean autonomic neurons (part of the ANS) and yes, they can be sensory neurons. Sensory neurons are the same as afferent neurons--meaning they carry signals towards the CNS. Think as afferent as 'approaching'. Anyhow, these neurons sense the conditions of your visceral organs and whatnot. Other wise it would have no information to judge for what signals to send. So yes, autonomic neurons consist of both sensory (afferent) and motor (efferent) neurons.
