A neuron that carries information from the senses to the central nervous system and is known as afferent is called a sensory neuron. These neurons transmit sensory input, such as touch, pain, temperature, and other stimuli, to the brain for processing. They play a crucial role in enabling the body to respond to environmental changes.
The peripheral nervous system.
by the brain throught the heart
messenger neurons
it's a single organ from the nervous system
true
You have thousands of nerves that are part of the PNS.Divisions of the peripheral nervous system include the afferent (sensory) division and the efferent (motor) division. The nerves coming from all the senses and the nerves going to glands and muscles are included.The efferent division is divided further into the somatic motor nervous system and thesomatic nervous system which includes all voluntary motor pathways outside the central nervous system.
The central nervous system, which consists of the brain and spinal cord, coordinates incoming sensory information and sends instructions to muscles and glands. This information processing allows for both voluntary and involuntary responses to stimuli.
Sensory neurons
The central nervous system involves primarily the brain and spinal cord. The function of the system is to process information gathered from the nerves in the body to carry out motor function, maintain bodily systems, etc.
The brain and spinal cord are part of the C.N.S.(Central Nervous System) The nerves from senses -> brain -> motor neuron -> muscle are part of the P.N.S. (Peripheral Nervous System)
Senses, such as hearing, taste, sight and smell, are transmitted by the spinal cord to the brain for interpretation. The brain and the spinal cord are the two main parts of the central nervous system.
