An efferent neuron carries impulses in the direction opposite of?
opposite of an afferent neuron. an efferent neuron goes from the central nervous system to the organ in the body that will perform the required action.
In a three neuron reflex arc the afferent neurons synapse with?
In a three neuron reflex arc, the afferent neurons synapse with interneurons in the spinal cord or brainstem. The interneurons then synapse with efferent neurons which transmit the signal to the effector organ to initiate a response.
What are the five parts of a reflex arc?
Summarized below are the 5 major components of the reflex arc: 1. Receptor 2. Afferent (sensory) neurons 3. Association neuron 4. Efferent (motor) neurons 5. Effector
What is the difference between afferent and efferent duct?
Afferent ducts carry fluid toward a particular organ or location, while efferent ducts carry fluid away from an organ or location. In the context of the male reproductive system, the afferent ducts transport sperm from the testes to the epididymis for storage and maturation, while the efferent ducts carry sperm from the epididymis to the vas deferens for ejaculation.
What occur during reflex arc?
Definitions: 1. afferent neuron - sensory nerve 2. efferent neuron - motor nerve 3. monosynaptic - see below There are different types of reflexes but the simplest type is a monosynaptic reflex. This means the afferent neurons connect directly to the efferent neurons. For example the knee jerk reflex is a monosynaptic reflex: 1. The patellar tendon is stretched. 2. The afferent neuron (which has stretch sensors) send a signal up to the spinal cord. 3. In the spinal cord at the synapse. The electrical signal is changed to a chemical signal. 4. Chemical messengers travel across the synapse and stimulate the efferent neuron. 5. The efferent neuron changes these signals into electrical signals which travel down to the quadriceps muscle. 6. There is another synapse connecting the nerve to the muscle. chemical messengers travel across the synapse and stimulate the muscle to contract.
Where is the neuron?
The Inter-neuron (also known as the local circuit neuron, relay neuron or the association neuron) is the neuron which connects the afferent and the efferent neurons in the neural pathways.
What is intermixed neuron?
a neuron which recieve both messages from afferent and efferent neuron...
What connects to sensory neurons?
You have three neurons in the reflex arc. You have the afferent, the intermediate and efferent neurons in the reflex arc. So the answer is intermediate neuron.
What type of neuron connects to a muscle?
A motor or efferent neuron.
Does the autonomic nervous system use a two efferent neuron chain or a two afferent chain?
two efferent neurons
What is Efferent Neurons?
A motor neuron is an efferent neuron as it 'sends out' a signal as opposed to sensory nerves which are afferent and relay information from the periphery towards the central nervous system.
Neuron type in dorsal root ganglian?
both afferent ( sensory) and efferent (motor)
What is the afferent process called?
Afferent Process is the process by which the dendrites carry impulses toward the cyton.
What are three kinds of neutrons that would be involved in a reflex impulse?
They are neurons and not neutrons. You have afferent neuron. Then you have intermediate neuron and then you have the efferent neuron in the reflex arc.
What Three kinds of neutrons that would be involved in a reflex impulse?
They are neurons and not neutrons. You have afferent neuron. Then you have intermediate neuron and then you have the efferent neuron in the reflex arc.
An efferent neuron carries impulses in the direction opposite of?
opposite of an afferent neuron. an efferent neuron goes from the central nervous system to the organ in the body that will perform the required action.
What type of neuron is also called an interneurn because it carries messages between the other two types of neurons Associative Afferent Efferent?
The type of neuron that is also known as an interneuron is the associative neuron. Interneurons are responsible for transmitting signals between sensory neurons (afferent neurons) and motor neurons (efferent neurons) in the central nervous system.
