Neurons are the building blocks of the nervous system, responsible for transmitting information throughout the body. They play a crucial role in processes such as thinking, memory, and controlling muscle movements. Neurons are essential for overall brain function and communication within the body.

What connects sensory to motor neuron?
Interneurons(also called relay neuron, association neuron, connector neuron or local circuit neuron) are multipolar neurons that connects sensory neurons to motor neurons.
What is the entire series of events through a three-neuron loop?
In a three-neuron loop, the first neuron sends a signal to the second neuron via a synapse. The second neuron processes the signal and sends it to the third neuron through another synapse. Finally, the third neuron integrates the signal and produces a response or transmits it further in the neural network.
What part of a neuron relays signals from one neuron to another neuron or to an effector?
The axon terminals of a neuron are responsible for relaying signals from one neuron to another neuron or to an effector, such as a muscle or gland. When an action potential travels down the axon, it triggers the release of neurotransmitters at the axon terminals, which then stimulate the next neuron or target cell.
What is the opening across which one neuron communicates with another neuron known as?
The opening across which one neuron communicates with another neuron is called a synapse. At the synapse, chemical signals called neurotransmitters are released from the presynaptic neuron, which then bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron to transmit the signal.
What neuron conducts impulses toward the synapse?
All neurons'impulsestravel to the synapse of the neuron. The synapse is the end of the neuron where theimpulsecantravelto another neuron or the any other receptor cell in the body.
What is the importance of a neuron?
A neuron sends messages from your brain to your body
Where is the neuron?
The Inter-neuron (also known as the local circuit neuron, relay neuron or the association neuron) is the neuron which connects the afferent and the efferent neurons in the neural pathways.
Why is a neuron called an interneuron?
A neuron is called a inter-neuron because that specific neuron takes impulse from one neuron to a next neuron. For example your sensory neuron sends a impulse that you had felt a hot object. It goes through the spine to a inter-neuron to a motor neuron (this processes is called a reflex). Then the motor neuron tells your muscles in your hand to move
Define relay neuron?
a relay neuron is the neuron that picks up the message from the sensory neuron and delivers it to the motor neuron in the spinal cord or the brain
What is the 3 types of neuron?
one type of neuron is the motor neuron
What is intermixed neuron?
a neuron which recieve both messages from afferent and efferent neuron...
What type of neuron connects to a muscle?
A motor or efferent neuron.
What is a neuron impulse?
it is neuron impulse
Is motor a neuron?
motor neuron is a type of neuron that found at the muscles, tissues, and organs.
What is another name for afferent neuron?
sensory neuron or receptor neuron.
A name for a nerve cell is?
A neuron.
How do you use neuron in a sentence?
you are neuron to the environment
