4.224 Neurones Quiz

Where is the cell body of a sensory neurone found?

• Central nervous system

• Synaptic knob

• Dorsal root ganglion

• Grey matter of the spinal cord

What is the function of a motor neurone?

• Carries nerve impulses from sensory organ receptors to the central nervous system

• Receives nerve impulses from the relay neurone and sends nerve impulses to effectors

• Connects the sensory neurone to the motor neurone

• Sends nerve impulses from the sensory neurone to the central nervous system

What is the role of a relay neurone?

• Carries nerve impulses from sensory organ receptors to the central nervous system

• Connects the sensory neurone to the motor neurone

• Sends nerve impulses from the sensory neurone to the central nervous system

• Receives nerve impulses from the relay neurone and sends nerve impulses to effectors
