A motor neurone connects the central nervous system (CNS) with an effector, which is to say either a muscle or a gland.
The length of the neurone depends on the size of the animal. In a human, some of the longest neurones extend from the base of the spine to the foot. The longest must be in the largest animals. Think of a giraffe. Not to mention a blue whale!

What is the long part of the neuron that extends out from the body cells?
the longest part of a nerve cell is called the Axon.
What are the two kinds of branches that extend from the cell body of a neuron?
Terminal branches (aka end brushes) are at the end of a Motor Nerve (aka Efferent Nerve) and are in very close proximity to the muscle fibers.
What part of a neuron relays signals from one neuron to another neuron or to an effector?
synaptic terminal
The part of the neuron that carries impulses to the neuron cell body is the?
dendrite
What part of the neuron was called the post-synoptic part of the neuron in humans?
postsynapse: containing receptor sites for the neurotransmitters on the dendrites.
Which part of the Schwann cell forms a neuron husk?
Motor Neuron
Neurons are part of the peripheral nervous system?
Sensory neuron and motor neuron.
What is the longest part of a neuron carrying messages to a leg muscle?
An axon.
How can you know if a neuron is a motor neuron Is is part of the somatic or visceral nervous system?
as a nerve impules
What is the long part of the neuron that extends out from the body cells?
the longest part of a nerve cell is called the Axon.
What part of the motor neuron carries impulses to the muscle?
The axon, an elongated portion of the neuron, carries impulses to the muscles.
What neuron carries impulses from the central nervous system to a muscle?
not sure , but i think they are called motor neurons and they are part of the PNS system
How does reflex occur?
This is what happens:a receptor detects a stimulus (change in the environment)a sensory neuron sends a signal to the relay neuronthe relay neuron sends the signal to the motor neuronthe motor neuron sends a signal to the affected partthe affected part produces a response
What is the nuclei that coordinate motor output?
I'm not sure what nuclei would do that. If you mean cellular nuclei then it would be the nuclei in the soma on the motor neuron. But, if you are asking about motor coordination, that is controlled by a part of the brain called the cerebellum.
What are the two kinds of branches that extend from the cell body of a neuron?
Terminal branches (aka end brushes) are at the end of a Motor Nerve (aka Efferent Nerve) and are in very close proximity to the muscle fibers.
What are the part of spinal cord?
The parts are: the cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and pelvic regions. :)
What is the basis for the functional classification of neurons?
Functionally, neurons or nerve cells are classified into three types,1. Sensory or afferent neuron- a neuron that carries signals towards brain.2. Motor or efferent neuron- a neuron that carries signals away from brain.3. Inter-neuron which is present in gray matter of spinal cord and convert sensory signals into appropriate motor signals during spinal reflex.
