Motor impulses travel through the body via the nervous system, primarily through motor neurons. When a signal is initiated in the brain or spinal cord, it travels down the axon of the motor neuron, which extends to the target muscle. At the neuromuscular junction, the impulse triggers the release of neurotransmitters, causing muscle fibers to contract and produce movement. This process allows for coordinated actions and responses throughout the body.
Motor impulses travel from the brain through the spinal cord via motor neurons. When the brain sends a signal, it activates these neurons, which then transmit the impulse to muscle fibers at the neuromuscular junction. This process induces muscle contraction, allowing movement. The entire pathway relies on electrical signals and neurotransmitter release to facilitate communication between the nervous system and muscles.
Motor impulses are initiated in the brain and travel down the spinal cord through motor neurons. When a signal reaches the end of a motor neuron, it triggers the release of neurotransmitters at the neuromuscular junction, which stimulates muscle fibers to contract. This process enables coordinated movement by transmitting signals from the central nervous system to various muscles throughout the body. The entire pathway involves electrical signals along neurons and chemical signals at synapses.
The impulse has to cross over a synapse to another neuron or an effector.
Motor Cortex
A nerve impulse typically moves in one direction, away from the cell body of a neuron and towards the axon terminals. This unidirectional flow ensures efficient communication within the nervous system.

Yes, motor nerves are responsible for stimulating muscle movement. They transmit signals from the central nervous system to muscle fibers, leading to contraction and movement. When a motor nerve impulse reaches a muscle, it triggers the release of neurotransmitters at the neuromuscular junction, which initiates muscle contraction. This coordinated process allows for voluntary and involuntary movements throughout the body.
The path of a voluntary impulse begins in the brain, where the decision to move is initiated in the motor cortex. This impulse travels down through the spinal cord via motor neurons, which then extend to the relevant muscles. Upon reaching the neuromuscular junction, neurotransmitters are released to stimulate muscle contraction, resulting in voluntary movement. This coordinated process allows for precise control of muscle action in response to conscious thought.
Impulses in the cell body (soma) of a neuron and move on along its axon, which conducts the impulse to a synapse at the end of the axon. There neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic cleft, so that the impulse can stop or go on to the next neuron or a gland/motor end plate, depending on the kind of neurotransmitter. Different types of neurotransmitters are: acetylcholine, adrenaline, noradrenaline, serotonine.
The impulse has to cross over a synapse to another neuron or an effector.
Muscles make possible every move we make, even when we are sleeping. Your muscles move according to what they are fromed. To be more specific, a muscle is made up of many bundles of muscle fibers. Each of these bundles of fibers is called a motor unit. Each unit has a motor nerve which branches out at its tip. Each muscle fiber, therefore, has its own nerve ending to stimulate it. An electrochemical impulse is transmitted by chemicals from the nerve ending to the fiber, causing the fiber in that motor unit to contract and this is how each muscle of your body moves.
A neuron is called a inter-neuron because that specific neuron takes impulse from one neuron to a next neuron. For example your sensory neuron sends a impulse that you had felt a hot object. It goes through the spine to a inter-neuron to a motor neuron (this processes is called a reflex). Then the motor neuron tells your muscles in your hand to move
