What else can I help you with?
Where do neurons originate in the human body?
Neurons originate from neural stem cells in the developing embryo, primarily in the neural tube.
Where do sympathetic fibers originate?
The sympathetic motor neurons come from the thoracic through the lumbar region of the spinal cord.
The effector pathway of the autonomic nervous system generally contain which neurons?
The effector pathway of the autonomic nervous system typically contains two types of neurons: preganglionic neurons and postganglionic neurons. The preganglionic neurons originate in the central nervous system and synapse with postganglionic neurons located in autonomic ganglia. These postganglionic neurons then project to various target organs, mediating involuntary functions such as heart rate, digestion, and respiratory rate.
What has the neuron got to do with the brain?
So, neurons are in the blood vessels. blood vessels originate from the brain. So, the main source of the cardiovascular system starts with the brain. Then arteries and veins spread all over the human body. and neurons lie within the vessels.
Where do impulses to the muscles originate?
The "impulses" to skeletal muscles come primarily from alpha motor neurons in the ventral horn of the spinal cord. These neurons release acetylcholine on the muscles, which causes sodium to enter the muscle, leading to contraction. The alpha motor neurons themselves get input from several sources, such as the primary motor area in the cerebral cortex of the brain. However, even this brain area gets input from other brain areas, including sensory areas. In a certain sense, the impulses to the muscles "originate" from the environment in the form of sensory signals.
What is pre and post ganglionic?
Pre-ganglionic and post-ganglionic refer to the neurons in the autonomic nervous system. Pre-ganglionic neurons originate in the central nervous system (CNS) and project to autonomic ganglia, where they synapse with post-ganglionic neurons. The post-ganglionic neurons then extend to target organs, influencing functions such as heart rate, digestion, and respiratory rate. This two-neuron pathway is essential for the regulation of involuntary body functions.
What are neurons called that detect stimuli in the skin and eye?
sensory neurons
Are neurons that relay impulses from sensory neurons to motor neurons?
Sensory Neurons
Postganglionic fibers that innervate targets in the body wall or thoracic cavity originate on neurons within?
Postganglionic fibers that innervate targets in the body wall or thoracic cavity originate on neurons within the sympathetic chain ganglia (paravertebral ganglia) or prevertebral ganglia (e.g., celiac ganglion). These ganglia are part of the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system and play a role in coordinating the body's fight-or-flight responses.
Sensory neorons and neurons are connected by-?
Sensory neurons and neurons are connected by Interneurons.
Sensory neurons are also known as?
Afferent Neurons
What are neurons that carry information between sensory neurons and motor neurons?
Interneurons or association neurons.
