What are the three types of neuron?

Functional types of neurons: 1. sensory (afferent) neurons - input to CNS from sensory receptors; dendrites located at receptors, axons in nerves, cell bodies in ganglia outside the CNS 2. motor (efferent) neurons - output from CNS to effectors cell bodies and dendrites located in the CNS, axons in nerves 3. interneurons - communicate and integrate information within the CNS; located entirely within the CNS


Where are the receptors for ACH located?

Acetylcholine (ACh) receptors are found in both the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). In the CNS, they are located on neurons, while in the PNS, they are found on muscle cells and at neuromuscular junctions.


What neuron fibers are running through the CNS?

In the central nervous system (CNS), there are two main types of neuron fibers: afferent (sensory) fibers that carry information from sensory receptors to the CNS, and efferent (motor) fibers that carry information from the CNS to effectors such as muscles and glands. These fibers make up the vast network of connections that allow for communication within the brain and spinal cord.


Is it the information carry from the periphery to the CNS?

Yes, information is carried from the periphery to the central nervous system (CNS) primarily through sensory neurons. These neurons transmit sensory information, such as touch, pain, temperature, and proprioception, from peripheral receptors to the spinal cord and brain. This process allows the CNS to interpret and respond to stimuli from the external environment.


What connects the cns to the pns?

The central nervous system (CNS) is connected to the peripheral nervous system (PNS) through spinal nerves and cranial nerves. These nerves serve as pathways for transmitting signals between the brain and spinal cord (CNS) and the rest of the body (PNS). The spinal cord relays information to and from the body, while cranial nerves facilitate communication between the brain and structures in the head and neck. This connection allows for coordinated bodily functions and responses to stimuli.

What is the peripheral nevorus system?

It is located outside of the central nervous system and consists of nerves and sensory receptors, it carries impulses formed by receptors, such as pain and sound receptors, to the CNS and it carries impulses from the CNS to effectors, glands and muscles that carry out actions directed by the CNS


Why does the spinal cord has a lot of nerve receptors?

its the cns and all nerve receptors go through here to respond to the rest of the body

What is the nerve system?

The Central Nervous System (CNS) consists of the brain and the spinal cord. All impulses from the body are relayed to receptors in the CNS to be interpreted and responded to by the brain.


What is the function of the PNS?

The peripheral nervous system, or PNS, conveys nerve impulses from your receptors to the central nervous system, or CNS. They also will convey nerve impulses from the CNS to your effector organs, typically a muscle or gland.

How do spikes and receptors interact?

It reacts in these following steps: 1) A spike (the stimulus) is touched by receptors in the skin. 2) Receptors in the skin detect the stimulus and send electrical impulses down neurones to the sensory neurone. 3) The sensory neurone will pass these electrical signals to the CNS (Central Nervous System). 4) The CNS will pass these electrical signals to the motor neurone which once connected to the brain (through nervous cells reaching the carotid area of the body), the brain will detect and understand the feeling of the spike and will send this information the receptors.
