Nervous System

Which type of neuron is responsible for releasing neurotransmitters to effectors?

• Motor Neuron

• Interneuron

• Sensory Neuron

• Central Nervous System

What is the function of interneurons?

• Release neurotransmitters at synapses

• Connect sensory neurons and motor neurons within the central nervous system

• Carry information from the central nervous system to the muscles and glands

• Carry information from the sensory organs to the central nervous system

What is the function of the central nervous system in homeostasis?

• Secreting hormones

• Detecting specific stimuli

• Processing and interpreting nerve impulses

• Generating movement

What do sensory neurons do?

• Transmit signals to motor neurons

• Receive and integrate signals from interneurons

• Counteract or reduce the initial stimulus

• Transmit sensory information from sensory receptors to the central nervous system

What is the function of motor neurons?

• Transmit signals from the central nervous system to effectors

• Communicate between neurons

• Process and interpret sensory information

• Coordinate appropriate responses

What is the role of negative feedback in maintaining homeostasis?

• Amplify the initial stimulus

• Counteract or reduce the initial stimulus

• Enhance the initial stimulus

• Ignore the initial stimulus

What is the neuron pathwauy involved in the stimulus-response model?

• Thermoreceptor - Interneuron - Motor Neuron

• Sensory Neuron - Motor Neuron

• Motor Neuron - Interneuron - Sensory Neuron

• Sensory Neuron - Mechanoreceptor - Interneuron

What is homeostasis?

• The conversion of stimuli into electrical signals

• The maintenance of a relatively constant internal environment

• The functioning of the nervous and endocrine systems

• The detection and response to changes in the internal and external environment

What are sensory receptors responsible for?

• Generating movement

• Detecting specific stimuli

• Secreting hormones

• Processing and interpreting nerve impulses

Where are interneurons located?

• Within the sensory receptors

• Within the peripheral nervous system

• Within the motor neurons

• Within the central nervous system
