No, not directly. Some sensory neurons can detect the effect of a motor neuron firing.
A reflex is an automatic response, that protects the organism from a harmful stimulus. The receptors detect a stimulus which generates a nerve impulse along the sensory neurone to the Central Nervous System (CNS). The CNS decides the appropiate response to the stimulus. The nerve impulse then travels across a synapse to the relay neurone, across another synapse to the motor neurone to the effector. This is normally a muscle or an organ which moves or responds to bring about a response appropiate to the stimulus.
The neuron that connects the sensory and motor neurons together is called an interneuron. Interneurons facilitate communication between sensory and motor neurons within the central nervous system.
Neurons transmit impulses between sensory and motor components of the nervous system. Sensory neurons carry signals from sensory receptors to the central nervous system, while motor neurons transmit signals from the central nervous system to muscles and glands for response. Communication between these neurons ensures coordinated sensory input and motor output.
A nervous impulse begins in the dendrites of a neuron, travels through the cell body and axon, and then is passed on to the next neuron via a synapse. This sequence repeats until the impulse reaches its destination, such as a muscle or gland, where it triggers a response.
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.
A relay neurone passes impulses from a sensory neurone to a motor neurone.

The nerve impulse typically travels from the sensory neuron to the spinal cord, where it is processed by interneurons, and then to the motor neuron to elicit a response from the effector organ or muscle.

Interneuron (relay neurone) Relays messages from sensory neurone to motor neurone. which make up the brain and spinal cord
What connects sensory and motor neuron is the impulse called interneuron or connector neuron are connected by means of electrical impulse called synape from sensory to motor neuron.
# Motor neurones have cell bodies inside the Central Nervous System (CNS) whilst in sensory neurones the cell body is located outside of the CNS # Motor neurones transmit impulses from the CNS to the effector which brings about a response to the situation, sensory neurones transmit impulses from to the CNS from the receptor. # Sensory neurones transmit impulses as a result of external stimuli such as pressure, light, temperature etc. Motor neurone transmit impulses passed along the CNS to the effector.
No
Are the nuerones that pass nerve impulses from sensory neurons to the motor neurons.
After passing through a left relay neuron, the impulse would travel to the right side of the brain to be processed in the cerebral cortex. The cerebral cortex is responsible for higher brain functions including sensory perception and motor control.
