Parts of the Nervous System

According to function a motor neuron would

• Transmit impulses from brain and spinal cords to muscles and glands directing action

• Carry Impulses from skin and organs to the spinal cord and brain about the external and internal environment

• Transmit impulses between other neurons

According to function a neuron (interneuron) that forms bridges would

• Transmit impulses from brain and spinal cords to muscles and glands directing action

• Carry Impulses from skin and organs to the spinal cord and brain about the external and internal environment

• Transmit impulses between other neurons

The type of nerves that carry impulses to the CNS

• Efferent

• Afferent

• Somatic

Sends an impulse to a muscle or gland to react in response

• Sensory Neuron

• Motor Neuron

• Interneuron

• Nerve impulse

The purpose of the Nerouns

• Insulate the axon fibers increase rate of speed

• Collect Stimuli

• Transmit information in the form of nerve impulses through the body
