Why are motor neurons also known as efferent neurons?
efferent neurons are just another name for motor neurons, indicating that they carry impulses from the brain (CNS) to the target cell. Similarly, the term 'afferent''can be used interchangeably with sensory as it describes the action of a neuron carrying impulses from the stimulis (which could either be internal or external) to the CNS.
What function type are motor neurons?
Motor neurons are considered efferent neurons, which means they transmit signals from the central nervous system to the muscles or glands to produce a response. They are responsible for initiating and controlling muscle contractions and movements.
Three kinds of neurons?
1.sensory neuron- carry impulses from the sensory receptors to the Central Nervous System 2.motor neurons- carry impulses from the Central Nervous System to the muscles and glans 3.association neuron- relay impulses netween sensory and motor neurons -------------------- AD go to bookden.webs.com .. a website for booklovers.. thx
What neurons are involved in a reflex?
3 neurons are included in the reflex arc. They are: Afferent neurons (take the message to the spinal cord) (sensory) Association neurons (directs message to the efferent neuron and the brain) (report reflex to the brain) Efferent neurons (takes message to effector) (motor) Not all reflexes have interneurons.
What are the nerve cells that carry signals from the central nervous system to the muscles or glands?
Motor (efferent) division of PNS carries motor responses from the central nervous system to muscles, glands, and other organs.Response by the nervous system is accomplished by motor control.Neurons send impulses to the spinal chord and dendrites carry the message to the cell body the axons then sends them awayMotor neuronsefferent neurons
What is another name for an efferent neuron?
Another name for an efferent neuron is a motor neuron. These neurons carry signals from the central nervous system to muscles, glands, and other effector organs in the body, enabling them to respond to stimuli.
What neurons carry impulses away from the spinal cord and the brain?
the sensory neurons
What neurons that carry impulse to the brain and spinal cord called?
These are called efferent neurons. The one that carry impulses away are afferent. Afferent (A) are away (A).
What afferent neurons convey information?
Afferent neurons carry sensory information in the form of nerve impulses to the central nervous system. Efferent/motor neurons carry commands to effectors such as muscles and glands.

Similarly, the term 'afferent''can be used interchangeably with sensory as it describes the action of a neuron carrying impulses from the stimulis (which could either be internal or external) to the CNS.
Neurons that carry impulses away from the central nervous system?
Neurons that carry impulses away from the central nervous system are called motor neurons. They transmit signals from the brain and spinal cord to muscles or glands, allowing for voluntary and involuntary movements to occur.
What function type are motor neurons?
Motor neurons are considered efferent neurons, which means they transmit signals from the central nervous system to the muscles or glands to produce a response. They are responsible for initiating and controlling muscle contractions and movements.
What is A neuron that can cause muscles to contract?
Efferent motor neurons stimulate muscle contractions.
Neurons are categorized by?
Structure Unipolar Bipolar Multipolar AND FUNCTION sensory or afferent neurons Motor or efferent neurons
Are smooth muscle reflexes somatic?
No, they are visceral and from the efferent or motor neurons.
What neurons carrry impulses from the brain or spinal cord out to the other organs and please answer?
Motor or efferent neurons.
