Neurons transmit signals acrossed a?
Neurons transmit signals across a synapse
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.
What is a specialized cell that conducts impulses through the nervous system?
Neurons transmit and receive signals in the nervous system
What are cells that are modified to transmit signals from one place to another?
Neurons are the cells that carry signals from one neuron to another neuron, a muscle, or a gland.
What is the difference between motor and sensory neurons?
The main difference is that motor neurons move signals away from the central nervous system and spinal cord where as sensory neurons move signals towards the central nervous system and spinal cord.
Neurons transmit signals acrossed a?
Neurons transmit signals across a synapse
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 is neurons transmit signals across a?
the nucleus.
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.
What cells process and transmit most chemical signals?
Neurons
Which sensory neurons send signals to CNS about external environment?
...................
What describes one of the function of the nervous system?
The nervous system's ultimate function is to interpret and respond to sensory signals from the environment.The nervous system consists of two main categories:1. Peripheral Nervous System (PNS): receives sensory stimuli, passes stimulus information to CNS in the form of an electrical action potential.2. Central Nervous System (CNS): consists of brain and spinal cord; interprets signals coming from sensory stimuli in the periphery and decides appropriate response to initiate- Afferent neurons transmit sensory signals from the PNS to the CNS- Efferent neurons transmit response signals to targets in the body to respond accordingly to initial sensory stimulus.
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.
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.
What is the basis for the functional classification of neurons?
Functionally, neurons or nerve cells are classified into three types,1. Sensory or afferent neuron- a neuron that carries signals towards brain.2. Motor or efferent neuron- a neuron that carries signals away from brain.3. Inter-neuron which is present in gray matter of spinal cord and convert sensory signals into appropriate motor signals during spinal reflex.
Which sentence best describes integration in the nervous system?
Sensory receptors send signals to sensory neurons.
Which neurons transmit information to the brain and spinal cord?
Sensory neurons gather information and send it to your spinal cord.
