What is the difference between ascending and descending impulses?

Ascending impulses refer to nerve signals traveling towards the brain, carrying sensory information from the body. Descending impulses, on the other hand, refer to nerve signals traveling from the brain down the spinal cord to control motor functions and movement in the body.


White matter is organized into ascending and descending tracts called?

White matter is organized into ascending and descending tracts called pathways. These pathways consist of bundles of nerve fibers that transmit signals between different regions of the central nervous system. The ascending pathways carry sensory information towards the brain, while the descending pathways carry motor commands from the brain to the muscles and glands.
