What nerve carries impulses away from the brain?

The efferent nerves, also known as motor nerves, carry impulses away from the brain and spinal cord to control muscles and glands in the body.


Neurons that carry impulses away from the central nervous system?

Neurons that carry impulses away from the central nervous system are called motor neurons. They transmit signals from the brain and spinal cord to muscles or glands, allowing for voluntary and involuntary movements to occur.


When a mosquito bites your left arm this will first activate the which lobe of your brain?

RIGHT LOBE. Because sensory and motor, both types of fibers cross to apposite side of the brain, in the area behind central sulcus, called as post central gyrus you have sensory area there. In front of the central sulcus, you have a motor area, called pro central gyrus. ( Sensory nerves carry signals to words brain and motor nerves carry sensations away from brain.)


Does a efferent neuron convey information away from the hippocampus?

Technically efferent neurons carry information AWAY from anything, afferent neurons carry information TOWARD something. So the hippocampus may have efferent information going to other parts of the brain (limbic structures, frontal lobe structures, etc). Most often efferent information refers to motor output in or to the peripheral nervous system.


How many directions can a nerve impulse travel in?

A nerve impulse can travel in two directions: towards the brain (sensory or afferent pathway) to convey sensory information, and away from the brain (motor or efferent pathway) to control muscle movement or glandular secretion.

What carries messages away from the central nervous system to the muscle of the body?

it is your nearves just like they carry messages to your brain. only when they get to your brain your brain tells them to go to the muscle that needs the message

What is an efferent neuron?

A motor neuron is an efferent neuron as it 'sends out' a signal as opposed to sensory nerves which are afferent and relay information from the periphery towards the central nervous system.


What neurons that carry impulse to the brain and spinal cord called?

These are called efferent neurons. The one that carry impulses away are afferent. Afferent (A) are away (A).

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.

What is the part of the body made up of bundles of neurons that carry impulses from all parts of the body to the brain and from the brain to all parts of the body?

The nervous system carries impulses to and from the brain by way of neurons. The bundles are called nerves. Sensory nerves bring impulses into the spinal cord and brain and motor neuron carry impulses away from the brain and spinal cord to the muscles and glands.


What neurons carry impulses away from the spinal cord and the brain?

the sensory neurons


Neurons carry impulses away from the brain and spinal cord?
