As opposed to the upper motor neurons the lower motor neurons have their cell bodies located in the?

Lower motor neurons have cell bodies located in the spinal cord or brainstem. They carry motor information from the central nervous system to the muscles, enabling voluntary muscle movement. Damage to lower motor neurons can result in muscle weakness, atrophy, and a loss of reflexes.


Where are neurosomas of the anterior root located?

Neurosomas of the anterior root are located within the grey matter of the spinal cord. They consist of cell bodies of motor neurons that project their axons out of the spinal cord to innervate muscles and glands.


Does chain ganglion contain soma from sensory neurons?

No, the chain ganglion contains cell bodies (soma) of autonomic motor neurons, not sensory neurons. Sensory neurons have their cell bodies located in the dorsal root ganglion outside the spinal cord.


Does the ganglia contain sensory neurons?

No, the ganglia are clusters of nerve cell bodies located outside of the central nervous system. They primarily contain motor neurons that transmit signals from the central nervous system to muscles and glands for motor control. Sensory neurons transmit signals from sensory organs to the central nervous system for processing.


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

How many muscles do we have in our bodies?

There are approximately 640 skeletal muscles in our bodies.


What are voluntary bodies?

The skeletal muscles and partially the respiratory.


3 kinds of muscles?

The three kinds of muscles are the smooth, cardiac and the skeletal. The smooth muscles are controlled by the autonomic nervous system. The cardiac muscles are in the heart and the skeletal help move our bodies.

Do lower motor neurons have their cell bodies in the brain and their axons in the ganglia?

No, lower motor neurons have their cell bodies in the spinal cord or brainstem and their axons extend directly to the muscles they innervate. Ganglia are clusters of cell bodies located outside the central nervous system.


Which type of muscle is most frequent in your bodies?

Probably skeletal muscle but smooth muscle would be a close second.


Where are the bodies located?

Most of the body's phosphate (85%) is located in the skeletal system

Where cell bodies of relay neurons located?

They are located within the spinal cord, specifically, they are found in the gray matter.


Is the heart called smooth or striated?

There are three types of muscles: Skeletal (what we think of when we move our bodies), Cardiac (muscle found only in the heart), and Smooth (muscle in our organs, such as the stomach). Cardiac muscles are striated muscles, they have striations just like skeletal muscles. Striations help move muscles, basically. Hope this helped a little.
