Best Answer

The entire signal travels in the neuron by a graded potential which is created in the dendrites and the body (soma) of the neuron, then it reaches a spot of the neuron which is called the axon-hillock where the signal now for the first time has encountered "voltage-gated channels" and now can create an Action potential that can propagate through the terminus of the neuron which is the length of the axon.

What does each do?

Sensory neurons carry signals from the receptors in our body (e.g. thermal, pressure etc.) to the relay neurons, which are found in our spinal cord. Relay neurons then send signals along the spinal cord to the brain. The brain then processes the information and sends a signal back down the spinal cord, through the relay neurons. Relay neurons then sends signals to motor neurons, which will then affect the muscles' movements.Read more: What_does_neuron_cells_do

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.
