What they relay is whether of not they were 'on' or 'off' and how often; and this occurs as an action potential firing frequency. There is no message in the sense that neurons might pass on complex messages, like an email for instance; or store memories of events and facts. No one neuron can do anything like that. It takes many neurons working together to achieve this.

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.
What is signal sending a neuron called?
The signal sent by a neuron is called an action potential. This electrical impulse travels along the neuron's axon and triggers the release of neurotransmitters at the synapse to communicate with other neurons or target cells.
What is a message sent from a sensory neuron to an interneuron and then goes on to the motor neuron?
The message is transferred with an electron signal, pulses (arcing between the two neurons). This is similar to an electrical circuit (in which electrons also flow to different circuit components), or to a fiber optic line (where pulses of light serve as substitutes to the electrons).
How does effector relate to reflex arc?
An effector is a part of the body (such as a muscle or gland) that carries out the response in a reflex arc. In a reflex arc, when a stimulus is detected by a sensory receptor, a message is sent via a sensory neuron to the spinal cord, where it is processed, and then a message is sent via a motor neuron to the effector causing a response.
The point of communication between two neurons?
The point of communication between two neurons is called a synapse. At the synapse, the sending neuron releases neurotransmitters into the tiny gap between the two neurons, which then bind to receptors on the receiving neuron, triggering an electrical signal to be sent down the receiving neuron. This process allows for communication and transmission of information between neurons in the brain and nervous system.
How does a message travel through a single neuron?
When a message gets sent to a neuron from the dendrite it goes through the cell body to the tip of the dendrite where it leaps to the next dendrite.
What is the name of a message sent along a nerve?
Neurons. There are 3 main types: Sensory neuron. Relay neuron and... Motor neuron. I hope this answered your question!
What is direct signal?
This is when the signal is sent directly to the organ, tissue, or a cell that needs it. An example of this is the neuron. A message is sent directly from or to brain

What were people called who sent out a religious message?
missionaries
Message sent by releasing chemicals that jump across synapses involve?
Messages sent by releasing chemicals that jump across synapses involve the release of neurotransmitters from the presynaptic neuron. These neurotransmitters then travel across the synaptic gap and bind to specific receptors on the postsynaptic neuron, altering its electrical potential and transmitting the message. This process is essential for communication between neurons in the nervous system.
What is a coded message sent over wires called?
A telegram
What is a written message sent frome one cell phone to another called?
text message
