No, not directly. Some sensory neurons can detect the effect of a motor neuron firing.
Which type of neurone transmits the impulse from a motor neurone to a sensory neurone?
Sensory neurons receive impulses from receptors.
Sensory Neurons
interneurons
70times
The Relay Neurone
sensory neurone --> enters spinal cord --> relay neurone --> brain(is not a reflex action) or motor neurone(if action is reflex)
Interneurone or relay neurone
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.
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 Relay Neurone
sensory neurone --> enters spinal cord --> relay neurone --> brain(is not a reflex action) or motor neurone(if action is reflex)
The nerve impulse travels through the reflex arc. It travels from the sensor through the sensory neurone, through the spinal cord and motor neurone to the effector muscle.

# 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.
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.
To take the signal from the sensory neurons to the motor neurons or other integrative neurons
