Which type of neurons carries impulse from sense organs to spinal cord or brain?
Sensory neurons
What is the direction of impulse for motor neurons?
Motor neurons carry impulses from the central nervous system to muscles or glands, resulting in a response such as muscle contraction or secretion of a substance. The direction of impulse for motor neurons is typically from the central nervous system (brain or spinal cord) to the target muscle or gland.
Most of the neurons in the brain and spinal cord are?
most of the neurons in the brain and spinal cord are
Neurons that function within the brain and spinal cord are called?
interneurons also called central or association neurons
What type of neurons are responsible for transmitting nerve impulses from the spinal cord to the effector?
Signals are transmitted through the spinal cord and brain via neurons.
What is the name of the short pathway that carries the impulse for an automatic response?
The short pathway that carries the impulse for an automatic response is called a reflex arc. It involves sensory neurons, interneurons in the spinal cord, and motor neurons to quickly produce a reflex action in response to a stimulus, bypassing the brain.
The brain and spinal cord contain conducting cells called?
neurons
Which structure delivers nerve impulse to the brain?
The nervous system delivers nerve impulses to the brain through specialized cells called neurons. These neurons transmit electrical signals from receptors in the body to the brain via neural pathways. The structures involved in this process include sensory receptors, peripheral nerves, the spinal cord, and the brain.
compare the central and the peripheral nervous system?
The Central nervous system includes the brain and spinal cord.The brain is the control center for all activities in the body.It is made of billions of neurons. The spinal cord is made up of bundles of neurons.Sensory neurons send impulse to the brain.All the nerves outside CNS ( Central Nervous System) that connects the brain and spinal cord to other body parts are part of the Peripheral nervous system. The Peripheral nervous system includes 12 pairs of nerves from your brain called cranial nerves, and 31 pairs of nerves from your spinal cord called Spinal nerves.
What is the difference between motor and sensory neurons?
The main difference is that motor neurons move signals away from the central nervous system and spinal cord where as sensory neurons move signals towards the central nervous system and spinal cord.
What kind of impulse carries impulses toward the spinal cord and brain?
A reflex. Reflexes are processed by the spinal cord in order to provide a quicker reaction than would be achieved if the signal travelled all the way to the brain and back.
What are neutrons that pickup sensations from receptors and carry them into the brain and spinal cord called?
motor neurons
