What are sensory and motor nervers called?
Sensory nerves are called afferent nerves, and motor nerves are called efferent nerves. Afferent nerves carry sensory information from the body to the central nervous system, while efferent nerves carry signals from the central nervous system to the muscles and glands to initiate a response.
What type of nerves are spinal nerves Are they Afferent Efferent or Mixed?
Spinal nerves are mixed nerves, meaning they contain both afferent (sensory) and efferent (motor) nerve fibers. This allows them to transmit both sensory information from the body to the central nervous system and motor commands from the central nervous system to the body.
What are the Nerves that only carry impulses away from the central nervous system called?
efferent nerve
What is efferent nerves?
Efferent nerves carry signals from the central nervous system to muscles and glands, enabling motor functions. They are responsible for transmitting commands for movement and secretion of hormones or other substances in the body.
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.
What are the two channels which relay the messages to and from the brain and to the body parts that will do the action?
These "channels " are actually nerves termed as Afferent and Efferent nerves usually called motor and sensory nerves.
What is another name for motor nerves, and how do they differ from sensory nerves in the nervous system?
Motor nerves are also known as efferent nerves. They differ from sensory nerves in the nervous system by carrying signals from the brain and spinal cord to muscles and glands, controlling movement and bodily functions. Sensory nerves, on the other hand, transmit signals from sensory organs to the brain and spinal cord, allowing us to perceive and respond to our environment.
3 types of nerves in spinal cord?
The three types of nerves in the spinal cord are: afferent, efferent, and interneurons.
What nerves carry impulses to the brain and spinal cord?
remember the word SAMESensory are AfferentMotor are Efferent
What is an efferent neuron?
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.
What is example of efferent nerves?
The somatic nervous system contains efferent nerves, such as the motor neurons that control voluntary movement of muscles. For example, the efferent nerves that innervate the skeletal muscles in your arms to produce movement when you reach for something are part of the somatic efferent nerves.
What the nerves carry the message to the brain?
Depending on where the "message" originates, it would generally be the periphrial nervous system carrying the message to the central nervous system, which is then processed by the appropriate neurons in the brain. The class of these nerves are the "efferent" nerves.
