What is the function of effector in a neuron?

The effector in a neuron is the structure that carries out the response generated by the neuron in order to stimulate a target such as a muscle or gland. Effector neurons transmit signals from the central nervous system to these targets to produce a specific physiological response.


What is the name of the neuron that contacts the effector organ?

Motor neurons are able to create a response in effector organs, muscles and glands by sending signals to them.


What bridge the gap between a neuron sending a message and the neuron receiving it?

neurotransmitters


What is sentence with the synapse?

A synapse is the gap between a neuron.


Where does an impulse move from on neuron to the other?

The impulse has to cross over a synapse to another neuron or an effector.


What are the five parts of a reflex arc?

Summarized below are the 5 major components of the reflex arc: 1. Receptor 2. Afferent (sensory) neurons 3. Association neuron 4. Efferent (motor) neurons 5. Effector


What part of a neuron relays signals from one neuron to another neuron or to an effector?

The axon terminals of a neuron are responsible for relaying signals from one neuron to another neuron or to an effector, such as a muscle or gland. When an action potential travels down the axon, it triggers the release of neurotransmitters at the axon terminals, which then stimulate the next neuron or target cell.


How many synapses occur in this reflex arc?

In a simple reflex arc, there are typically three neurons and two synapses. The sensory neuron carries the signal from the receptor to the central nervous system, where it synapses with the interneuron. The interneuron then synapses with the motor neuron, which carries the signal to the effector organ to produce a response.


The sensory receptor sensory neuron motor neuron and effector involved in a reflex form a?

The sensory receptor, sensory neuron, motor neuron, and effector involved in a reflex form a reflex arc. This is a neural pathway that controls a reflex action in response to a stimulus without conscious thought.


A molecule that is released from synaptic vesicles and serves as the means of communication from one neuron to the next or from a neuron to an effector cell?

Neurotransmitter.


What is the sequence of a typical reflex arc?

1. The receptor reacts to a stimulus. 2. The sensory neuron conducts the afferent impulses to the CNS. 3. The integration center consists of one or more synapses in the CNS. 4. The motor neuron conducts the efferent impulses from the integration center to an effector. 5. The effector, muscle fibers or glands, respond to the efferent impulses by contraction or secretion a product, respectively.


What is a motor neuron?

motor neuron is a type of neuron that found at the muscles, tissues, and organs.
