Neurons that convey sensory information are called 'sensory neurons' or "afferent neurones"
It is located outside of the central nervous system and consists of nerves and sensory receptors, it carries impulses formed by receptors, such as pain and sound receptors, to the CNS and it carries impulses from the CNS to effectors, glands and muscles that carry out actions directed by the CNS
The neuron that carries impulses to the central nervous system is called a sensory neuron. Sensory neurons transmit signals from sensory receptors to the brain and spinal cord, allowing the central nervous system to process and respond to sensory information.
No, the sensory afferent division conveys impulses towards the central nervous system. Afferent neurons transmit sensory signals from sensory receptors to the central nervous system, whereas efferent neurons carry signals away from the central nervous system to muscles and glands.
The peripheral nervous system carries impulses between the spinal cord and other body parts.
Motor neurons carry instructions from the central nervous system to effector organs. They are a part of the peripheral nervous system and transmit signals to muscles and glands, causing them to contract or secrete in response to stimuli.
The answer is the central send impulses and the brain and spinal chord are used in this application.
opposite of an afferent neuron. an efferent neuron goes from the central nervous system to the organ in the body that will perform the required action.
They are called as motor neurons.
The Central nervous systme sends impulses to the peripheral nervous system which in turn carries signals to the muscles.
Neurons that receive info & send impulses to brian or spinal cord.
A pseudo-unipolar neuron referred to as an afferent neuron carries a sensory impulse to the spinal cord, which is part of the central nervous system.A pseudo-unipolar neuron has one axon which comes from the cell body (soma) and then splits into two branches, the peripheral axonal branch which carries the impulse from the skin, and the central axonal branch which carries the impulse to the spinal cord; it has no dendrites, which distinguishes it from a bipolar neuron.The impulse moves along the peripheral branch and then to the central branch, skipping the soma.
Sensory neurons are responsible for transmitting information from sensory receptors to the central nervous system. They detect stimuli from the external environment or within the body and convert these signals into electrical impulses that can be processed by the brain.
