Functional difference between a motor and a relay neuron?
A motor neuron is responsible for transmitting signals from the central nervous system to muscles or glands to stimulate movement or secretion. A relay neuron, also known as an interneuron, acts as a bridge between sensory and motor neurons, facilitating communication between them within the central nervous system. Essentially, motor neurons are involved in output or response, while relay neurons help process and integrate information.
What nerve acts as the afferent pathway in the pupillary reflex?
The optic nerve (cranial nerve II) carries sensory information about light intensity to the brain as part of the afferent pathway in the pupillary reflex.
What substance is produced and released by neurons in the brain?
The substance that is produced and released by neurons in the brain is a hormone called dopamine. It acts as a neurotransmitter that sends signals between nerve cells.
What is a connector nerve cell?
Connector neurons are specialized bipolar or multipolar neurons of the central nervous system. Connector neurons are also known as interneurons and connect sensory neurons.
Are neurons made up of neurolemma?
No. Neurons have a cover on a part called the axon. This is called a neurolemma. Not all axons have this covering. This cover acts like the cover on an electrical cord. It prevents it from short circuiting and increases the speed which the impulse travels.
What neuron connects an afferent neuron to an efferent neuron?
The interneuron acts as a connector between afferent and efferent neurons in the central nervous system. It integrates and processes incoming sensory information before transmitting signals to the efferent neuron to produce a response.
What acts as an interpreter for the two types of neurons?
Interneurons

Is there used compiler or interpreter in HTM?
A htm file is interpreted, not compiled. A browser acts as the interpreter.
Why ACE inhibitor contraindicated in renal artery stenosis?
In the presence of renal artery stenosis, the resistance in the afferent arteriole is increased. As compensation, Angiotensin II acts to constrict the efferent arteriole in order to achieve adequate profusion of the glomerulus. ACE inhibitors block the conversion of angiotensin I into angiotensin II. Without its vasoconstrictive effect, the efferent arteriole becomes dilated. This leads to a drop in GFR and may lead to renal failure.
What encloses the third ventricle of the brain and acts as a switch board for afferent impulses?
Thalamus
What are inter neurons?
A nerve cell found entirely within the central nervous system that acts as a link between sensory neurons and motor neurons.
Transfer rna acts as an interpreter because it?
carries an amino acid to its correct codon
What nerve acts as the afferent pathway in the pupillary reflex?
The optic nerve (cranial nerve II) carries sensory information about light intensity to the brain as part of the afferent pathway in the pupillary reflex.

The substance that is produced and released by neurons in the brain is a hormone called dopamine. It acts as a neurotransmitter that sends signals between nerve cells.
How does nicotine effect cells?
Nicotine is a Sympathetic drug when it acts on synapse it has its Sympathomimetic action and it activates the neurons.
Important synapse site for afferent fibers traveling to the sensory cortex?
Thalamus is the important synapse site for afferent fibers traveling to the sensory cortex. It acts as a relay station, processing sensory information before transmitting it to the appropriate areas of the sensory cortex for further processing and perception.
