Your motor nerves inhabit the anterior columns of the spinal cord and transmit excitatory action potentials from the motor cortex down and outward to your extremities so that your body may move. (walking, sitting, standing, turning your head, blinking the eyes, talking, picking things up)

What is the function of a association nerve?
ASSOCIATION NERVES links the sensory to the motor nerves

Links That Stimulates sensory nerves to motor nerves
What is the primary function of motor nerves in the human body and how do they differ from other types of nerves?
The primary function of motor nerves in the human body is to carry signals from the brain and spinal cord to muscles, causing them to contract and produce movement. Motor nerves differ from other types of nerves, such as sensory nerves, which carry signals from the body to the brain, in that they specifically control muscle movement.
Are spinal nerves primarily sensory or motor in function?
Spinal nerves have both sensory and motor functions. They carry sensory information from the body to the brain and transmit motor signals from the brain to the muscles to control movement.
Spinal nerves are purely sensory and motor?
Spinal nerves are mixed nerves, meaning they contain both sensory and motor fibers. Sensory fibers transmit information from the body to the brain, while motor fibers carry signals from the brain to muscles, glands, and other effector organs. This dual function allows spinal nerves to both receive sensory input and initiate motor output.
What is the primary function of motor nerves, and why are they considered to be the most abundant type of nerves in the human body?
The primary function of motor nerves is to carry signals from the brain and spinal cord to muscles and glands, controlling movement and bodily functions. They are considered the most abundant type of nerves in the human body because they are responsible for coordinating and controlling most of our voluntary movements and actions.
What part of the brain controls motor function and mechanical impulses to the nerves?
THe central nervous system
What are nerves classified?
Nerves are classified based on their structure and function. Structurally, they can be categorized into cranial nerves, which emerge from the brain, and spinal nerves, which arise from the spinal cord. Functionally, they are divided into sensory (afferent) nerves that carry signals to the central nervous system, motor (efferent) nerves that transmit signals from the central nervous system to muscles, and mixed nerves that contain both sensory and motor fibers.
What is a function of a motor nerve cell?
Motor nerve cells are the nerves that are supplied from the the brain to the muscles and the glands to perform a function. They are used in contracting and relaxing the muscles to perform certain specified functions.
What are the percentages of motor nerves and sensory nerves in the human body?
I dont know the percentage but the 3 types of it are Sensory nerves Motor nerves Mixed nerves
Which nervous system includes mixed nerves that serve the musculoskeletal system?
The peripheral nervous system contains mixed nerves (both sensory and motor) that the musculoskeletal needs to function.
What is nerves or neurons?
nerves are white tough and string like structure there r two types of nerves sensory nerve and motor nerve neuron.............. neuron is basic unit of structure and function of nervous system ..........brain spinal cord and nerves are made up of neurons
