Sensory neurons provide information from the environment to the body. For example, when you touch a hot surface, a sensory neuron informs your body that the temperature near your skin is rising.
Motor neurons are the neurons the body uses to react to the environment. For example, if you touch a hot surface, then your body will make your hand move away from that surface by a motor neuron. The action is the result of the motor neurons not the fact you realize it is hot, Motor neurons also send impulses to your muscles. These neurons are called somatic neurons. Another motor neuron is the autonomic neuron. This neuron control your organs and heart. Usually the Vegas nerve controls and divides this power in two ways: sympathetic and parasympathetic
The nervous system regulates body functions through electrochemical impulses. It consists of the brain, spinal cord, and nerves that transmit these impulses throughout the body to coordinate and control various physiological processes.
No
The nervous system is the primary body system responsible for directing body activities by sending and receiving impulses. It consists of the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves, which work together to process sensory information and coordinate responses. By transmitting electrical signals, the nervous system regulates functions such as movement, reflexes, and homeostasis.
The nervous system and the endocrine system work together to regulate the internal and external environment of the body. The nervous system uses electrical impulses to send signals quickly, while the endocrine system uses hormones to send chemical messages more slowly. Together, these systems monitor and adjust various bodily functions to maintain homeostasis.
Neurons receive stimuli from the environment or other cells, which triggers the formation of electrical impulses that travel along the neuron's axon. These impulses then allow for communication between different parts of the body or with other neurons.

No
Homeostasis
The nervous system controls muscles and glands by electrical impulses.
Autonomy
The nervous system controls the body through nerve impulses. The endocrine system controls the body through hormones.
The human body self-regulates to maintain a stable internal environment despite changes in the external environment is a process called homeostasis. They begin by looking at how the human body regulates temperature and the value of a feverin fighting infection.
True

They carry impulses to the cell body. Axons carry impulses away from the cell body.
Nerve cells can transmit electrical impulses throughout the body.
