The nervous system carries messages through a network of nerve cells called neurons. When a stimulus is detected, electrical signals are generated in the neurons and travel along the nerve cells in the form of action potentials. These action potentials allow for communication between different parts of the body and are transmitted across synapses to relay messages between neurons.

What system in the body carries information from the glands and organs to the brain?

The nervous system carries information from the glands and organs to the brain. This communication is often facilitated by the peripheral nervous system, which includes sensory nerves that send signals to the brain for interpretation and response.


What carry instructions from the central nervous system to effector organs?

Motor neurons carry instructions from the central nervous system to effector organs. They are a part of the peripheral nervous system and transmit signals to muscles and glands, causing them to contract or secrete in response to stimuli.


What is the system that carries electrical signals from your brain and spinal cord?

The system that carries electrical signals from your brain and spinal cord is called the nervous system. Specifically, the signals are transmitted through specialized cells called neurons, which make up the communication network of the body.


A sensory neuron carries stimuli from central nervous system to the effector. true or false?

False. A sensory neuron carries stimuli from the peripheral nervous system (such as skin or organs) to the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) for processing. Effector neurons are responsible for carrying signals from the central nervous system to muscles, glands, or other organs to produce a response to the stimulus.


What is the name of the neurone that carries impulses to the central nervous system?

The neuron that carries impulses to the central nervous system is called a sensory neuron. Sensory neurons transmit signals from sensory receptors to the brain and spinal cord, allowing the central nervous system to process and respond to sensory information.
