What are the parts of neuron describe and give its the function?

A neuron has three basic parts, the cell body, the axon, and the dendrites.For more info, see the related link below.


Are all the efferent neurons motor all the afferent neurons sensory and all the CNS neurons inter neurons?

Not all efferent neurons are motor; some can be autonomic (meaning they control involuntary functions). Similarly, not all afferent neurons are sensory; some can be visceral (relaying information from internal organs). CNS neurons can include interneurons that integrate and transmit signals between sensory and motor neurons, but not all CNS neurons are interneurons, as there are also sensory and motor neurons found within the CNS.


Two main divisions of the nervous system are?

The two main divisions of the nervous system are the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The CNS consists of the brain and spinal cord, while the PNS includes all the nerves outside the brain and spinal cord that transmit sensory information to the CNS and carry motor commands from the CNS to the rest of the body.


What do CNS and PNS stand for?

CNS stands for Central Nervous System, which includes the brain and spinal cord. PNS stands for Peripheral Nervous System, which includes all the nerves outside of the central nervous system that connect to the rest of the body.


What part of the body sends a message to the brain?

Your nervous system sends messages from the body to the brain. Different kinds of Neurons are used to send each message, to allow your brain to know what is going on in your environment. The things that cause a reaction are called Stimuli. Messages are sent along nerve cells, or Neurons. For instance, if you prick your finger on a pin, a sensor in your skin called a Receptor sends a message of pain through a Sensory Neuron, to a Relay neuron in your Central Nervous System (which is your brain and spinal cord). The message is then sent through the CNS, to the brain, so your brain can decide how to react to the pain. The message is THEN sent through a motor neuron, which causes your muscles to move to react to the message. (Something that reacts to a message from a neuron is called an Effector- because it causes an effect.) In this case, the message from the motor neuron to the effector- your muscle- would make you pull your hand back, to get it away from the pin. In short: A change in your environment, like pain, is picked up by a Receptor. The message picked up by the Receptor is sent through a Sensory Neuron. The message is then sent through the Central Nervous System by Relay Neuron. Once the brain has decided what to do, it sends a message to the Motor Neuron. The Motor Neuron triggers an Effector (a muscle, or some chemical secretion) to react to the change. It may not be completely correct, but I'm 90% sure that's at least a rough, simple version.

Where is the motor neuron cell located?

Motor neuron cells are located within the central nervous system (CNS), specifically in the spinal cord and brain. They are responsible for transmitting signals from the brain to muscles and glands to control movements and various bodily functions.


What does astrocytes oligodendrocytes and microglia have in common?

they are all non neuron cells that serve to maintain the CNS in their different ways


What is the classification of a neuron when the cell body is located in the CNS and the primary function is connecting other neurons?

A synapse connects one neuron to another (and a neuron to a muscle cell).The axon hillock at the 'end' of the neuron cell body (soma) initiates a firing of the axon of a neuron.An axon terminal at the end of an axon is the first part of a synapse.If this didn't answer your intended question, please compose it better.


Every neuron that is not part of the central nervous system can be considered part of the.?

Every neuron that is not part of the central nervous system (CNS) can be considered part of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The PNS includes all the nerves and ganglia outside the brain and spinal cord, connecting the CNS to limbs and organs. It plays a crucial role in transmitting sensory information to the CNS and carrying motor commands from the CNS to the body.

What are the parts of neuron and its function?

The three main parts of a neuron are the soma (cell body), the axons, the long trailing output of a neuron and the dendrite or dendritic tree. Almost all neurons have axons, but not all axons have a dendritic tree.

Number of parts in a neuron?

It depends on the neuron. They all have a cell body. They have dendrites and some have dendrites plus axon(s).


What are the nervous system principal parts?

The nervous system consists of two principal parts: the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The CNS includes the brain and spinal cord, which process and transmit information. The PNS comprises all the nerves outside the CNS, connecting it to the rest of the body and facilitating communication between the CNS and peripheral organs. Together, these parts coordinate sensory input, motor output, and various bodily functions.
