A Receptor is referring to a sense organ, like a nerve ending.
An Effector is referring to a muscle capable of reflecting to a stimulus.
By definition, receptor and effector are antonyms.
Forward kinematics calculates the end-effector position of a robot based on the joint angles. Reverse kinematics, on the other hand, determines the joint angles required to position the end-effector at a desired location. Essentially, forward kinematics looks at the robot from joint angles to end-effector position, while reverse kinematics works from end-effector position back to joint angles.
The gap between a neuron and its effector is called a synaptic cleft. Neurotransmitters are released from the neuron into this gap and then bind to receptors on the effector cell to transmit the signal.
The neuron is the functional portion of the central nervous system, carrying impulses to the designated location. Neurons also have the role of interpreting an impulse, and waiting for a response. Neurons fall under the category of sensory neurons, interneurons and motor neurons.
A receptor is a molecule, organ, or cell that carries out a response to a stimulus by detecting the presence of specific molecules or signals in the environment and initiating a cellular response. Receptors play a key role in communication between cells and organisms, allowing them to respond to changes in their surroundings.
The space between two neurons or between a neuron and a receptor is known as a synapse. In this gap, neurotransmitters are released from the presynaptic neuron and bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron, allowing for communication between the two cells.
Neurons are pathways for electrical messages to pass through. Their main function is to pass a message from one neuron to another. As a whole, they transmit these messages between a receptor (something that picks up a stimulus. A stimulus includes things such as temperature, pressure, pain etc.), the brain and an effector (something which carries out the response to the stimulus). There are three main types of neurons: Sensory neurons - receive message from receptor and transmit it to the -> Interneurons - receive message from sensory neurons and pass it on to the brain*. The brain responds and the interneurons pass the message on to the -> Motor neurons - receive message from interneurons and pass it on to an effector. *In the case of a reflex arc, where there is an unconscious response (e.g. touching a hot object) the message will bypass the brain and go straight from receptor to sensory to interneuron to motor to effector.
The three-neuron arc is the most common and consists of the afferent neurons, interneurons, and the efferent neurons. Afferent neurons conduct impulses to the CNS from the receptors. Efferent neurons conduct impulses from the CNS to effectors (muscle or glandular tissue). Two-neuron arc is the simplest form, fastest responding and consists of afferent and efferent neurons. Example is the knee-jerk reflex.
the difference is that, stimuli is the plural of stimulus; that is stimuli is feelings while stimulus is feeling.

A stimulus is a change in an organism's surroundings or body which causes it to respond. Hence, a response is an organism's reaction to a specific stimulus.
The difference between an external stimulus and an internal stimulus is that an external stimulus is a stimulus that comes from outside an organism. But an internal stumulus is a stimulus that comes from inside an organism. An example for an external stimulus can be that when you are cold, you put on a jacket. An example for an internal stimulus is that when you feel hungry, you eat food.
Receptors are proteins that detect specific stimuli, such as chemicals or light, and trigger cellular responses. The receptor's structure allows it to bind to the stimulus molecule, leading to a conformational change that initiates a signaling cascade within the cell. This process enables cells to sense and respond to their environment.
Forward kinematics calculates the end-effector position of a robot based on the joint angles. Reverse kinematics, on the other hand, determines the joint angles required to position the end-effector at a desired location. Essentially, forward kinematics looks at the robot from joint angles to end-effector position, while reverse kinematics works from end-effector position back to joint angles.
Antibodies lack a transmembrane domain.

Simple spinal reflex is when the afferent receptor synapses directly with an efferent neuron and subsequently an effector cell/tissue. This will all take place in the spinal cord. A complex reaction will involve an intermediary interneuron or even the brain for 'processing' before synapsing with an efferent neuron and target tissue.
