text: The somatic nervous system contains sensory (afferent) neurons that carry information from organs/muscles to the CNS, and motor (efferent) neurons that carry information from the brain and spinal cord to muscles of the body.
text: Afferent and efferent can also refer generally to neurons which, respectively, bring information to or send information from the brain region.
text: A two-neuron reflex arc comprises a receptor and an afferent neuron bearing information about the stimulus to the central nervous system and a motor neuron with which the sensory cell synapses and through which the response is produced.
text: The cell body of the neuron that carries the information often lies within the brain or spinal cord and projects directly to a skeletal muscle.
text: The somatic nervous system contains sensory (afferent) neurons that carry information from organs/muscles to the CNS, and motor (efferent) neurons that carry information from the brain and spinal cord to muscles of the body.
text: This system is composed of both sensory (afferent) neurons, which carry information from the nerves to the brain and spinal cord, and motor (efferent) neurons, which transmit information from the central nervous system to the muscle fibers.
text: Sensory neurons: Also called afferent neurons, sensory neurons carry information from the nerves to the central nervous system.
text: Afferent and efferent can also refer generally to neurons which, respectively, bring information to or send information from brain region.
text: The afferent nerves, from the Latin "afferre" that means "to bring towards", contain neurons that bring information to the central nervous system.
