Does sensory neurons for touch also carries pain impulses?
Yes, sensory neurons for touch can also carry pain impulses when there is tissue damage or injury. These neurons are capable of responding to various stimuli, including pain signals, and transmit this information to the brain for processing.
The two main ways in which neurons are able to react to stimuli are?
Neurons can react to stimuli through electrical signaling, where they generate action potentials to transmit information along their length. They can also respond to chemical signals by releasing neurotransmitters at synapses to communicate with other neurons or target cells.
What is an afferent neuron?
Afferent neurons are those that transmit signals from sensory transducers to the central nervous system (i.e., the spinal cord and the brain). The complementary group of neurons are the efferent neurons that transmit signals from the central nervous system to effectors, that generate a response to the environmental input.
What are the different types of nerves cells or neurons differentiate the types based on function?
There are three main types of neurons based on their function: sensory neurons transmit sensory information (e.g., touch, taste) to the brain, motor neurons control muscle movement, and interneurons relay signals between neurons in the brain and spinal cord. These neurons work together to facilitate communication within the nervous system.
Who do three different types of neurons function?
motor neuron: neurons that relay signals from the central nervous system to the other parts of the bodysensory neuron: neurons that transmit information to the central nervous system from the senses of sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell, as well as those that transmit pain signalsinter neurons: relay signals between neurons or groups of neurons, are responsible for the processing of information by the brain, like the logic circuits of a computer. Also serve to relay signals from place to place within the central nervous system.I was going to make a correction but there is none to be made.

What cell in your skin allows us to sense pressure?
Merkel cells, located in the epidermis of the skin, are responsible for sensing light touch and pressure. They are connected to nerve endings and help transmit information about pressure stimuli to the brain.

What nerve cells that transmit information to the central nervous system from the senses of sight hearing taste touch and smell are the?
messenger neurons
What is the function of afferent neuron?
Afferent neurons transmit sensory information from the body to the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord). They are responsible for detecting stimuli such as touch, temperature, pain, and pressure, and relaying this information to the brain for processing.
How fast the neuron travells towards your body?
Neurons transmit electrical impulses through your body at speeds ranging from about 1 to 100 meters per second, depending on the type of neuron and the myelin sheath insulation. In general, sensory neurons carrying touch information travel at around 1-2 meters per second, while motor neurons controlling muscle movement can reach speeds of up to 100 meters per second.
Do neurons in your brain actually touch each other when receiving messages?
no. they do not.
What carries information to the brain to be interpreted?
Sensory neurons are responsible for carrying information from sensory receptors to the brain. These neurons transmit signals related to touch, taste, smell, sight, and hearing which are then interpreted by the brain.
Dendrites found on unipolar neurons are part of what?
Dendrites found on unipolar neurons are part of the sensory receptor that detects stimuli such as touch, pressure, vibration, and temperature. They transmit this sensory information to the neuron's cell body, which then processes and transmits the signal to the central nervous system.
